For Blue Sky Chimney Sweeps it’s all about serving our customers. To us that means providing you with prompt and expert service! We have been privileged to be recognized as a valuable resource for homeowners in the Greenville area when it comes to maintaining and repairing your chimney, fireplaces, and venting systems. Due to our continued growth and ever increasing customer base, we are proud to announce that we have expanded our staff and added another technician to our team to serve you even better than before. We welcome Nick Henderson, a local Simpsonville, SC resident to our team and ask that you do the same.
One of the many things that distinguishes us from other chimney companies is our commitment to ensuring that our technicians are fully trained and understand the dynamics of properly serving our customers. We are very selective in who we add to our team, just as we know you are very selective about who you allow into your home. Applicants for our technician position must, as part of our requirement listing, pass a background check, possess strong verbal and written communication skills, and must demonstrate their commitment to being “all in” for our valuable customers before they are even considered. Once our candidates meet our stringent requirements, we pay close attention to their approach to work and their overall attitude.
For us, customer service is not a department, it is an attitude. Our technicians truly want to help our customers, realizing that we are dealing with our homeowner’s safety as well as peace of mind. Our team enjoys working together in a rewarding environment where they are treated with respect and encouraged to continually expand their skills. Focusing on building the right team allows us to better serve our customers. We only hire those who will fit in with our corporate culture. Our chimney professionals — Our entire staff is here to serve our customers.
While it’s difficult to teach attitude, we can provide our technicians with the technical training necessary to be the best inspector, advisor, and technician our customers seek. Proper training is another way we are committed to our staff and our customers. Our willingness to invest in our technicians’ education distinguishes us in the marketplace. Our technicians are not only certified by the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA), but they receive continuing education to keep them up-to-date on new technology, tools, and techniques to better service our customers.
