Grey Oaks Chimney Services

Grey Oaks Chimney Services operates from Rochester Hills and serves homeowners throughout Oakland and Macomb Counties in Southeast Michigan. The company holds a 4.3-star average across 29 customer reviews, with a service palette that spans chimney sweeping, safety inspections, chimney cap installation, tuckpointing, and full chimney rebuilding. Their service week runs Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 6 PM, with Saturday availability until 3 PM.

What distinguishes Grey Oaks from run-of-the-mill sweep companies is their documented 21-point safety inspection protocol, which they pair with what they describe as a mess-free sweeping process. The company operates an online store selling chimney caps, energy-saving dampers, clean-out doors, and chase covers directly to homeowners, with lifetime warranties on stainless steel and copper products. Their dampers carry a claimed 90% energy reduction rating, backed by a lifetime warranty, while their chimney caps come in 304 stainless steel, black galvanized steel, or copper with matching warranty coverage. This product-forward approach, combined with in-house masonry for rebuilding and tuckpointing work, gives them a broader service footprint than a typical sweep operation.

Reviewers consistently single out a technician named Jeff for praise. One customer with a 1928 vintage house described how Grey Oaks rebuilt the top six feet of an unusual chimney while preserving the original character, calling the brickwork a great match. Another reviewer documented a weeklong rebuild process where Jeff's crew photographed each step, noting that Jeff quote was the only one who would not promise a one-day job and preferred doing it right over doing it fast. A five-year customer described Jeff as patient, understanding, and arriving with a smile whenever needed.
