"Like Greg G said in the comments, it feels like there is something strange going on with this company when it comes to billing and communication. My landlord booked a chimney cleaning. As the tenant, I was the person to open the door and let the people in. I confirmed with them that they had all of the billing information for the landlord, and they said they did. Over the next year I kept getting emails asking for me to pay the bill and I kept providing them the billing information for the landlord. They never responded, just ignored me and then threatened to send to collections. I had to call and email over twenty times to get this resolved, when this was their mistake in the first place. I would avoid this company, incredibly surprised to find all of my emails and calls ignored. I had to get a lawyer involved to finally put an end to this. You have been warned, do not use Tahoe Chimney & Fireplace as a renter, even if the landlord is paying, they will still try to bill you rather than the landlord who booked the service!"

Chimney Sweep questions, answered by experts

Yes, and they do it exceptionally well. Heated roof cables have two purposes: melting snow and preventing ice buildup. Ice damming happens when ice forms on the roof (usually where the roof meets the gutter) and melts stubbornly slowly, causing moisture to enter the roof itself and, therefore, the home.

Yes, cleaning removes harmful elements that contribute to rot or degradation, extending the roof's lifespan and averting costly future repairs.

Generally, snow removal from a roof should occur once over six inches of snow accumulates, especially if you notice that ice dams have formed. Without ice dams, you can let the snow accumulation hit 12 inches before removing it. However, the amount of snow that is too much for your roof also depends on the sturdiness of your roof and the compactness of the snow. If your roof needs maintenance or has structural issues, it’s best not to let the snow accumulate too much for fear of collapsing.

There are several ways to remove snow from your roof: using a snow rake, salting the roof with calcium chloride, using a rope (cautiously), and using heating cables. It’s important to mention that pretty, fluffy, sparkling snow weighs a great deal, and when physically removing snow from a roof, you should be aware of large snow slabs breaking off. These can weigh hundreds of pounds and are a real danger, so be extremely careful anytime you’re doing this type of work.

Clay tile roofs require minimal maintenance, as they stand up very well to the elements and often won’t fade in direct sunlight. They also don’t need sealing. Concrete tiles are also relatively low maintenance, but you will need more maintenance than with clay. You’ll need to seal concrete every few years to improve water resistance, and the color will fade a bit more quickly than with clay.
