Customers say: Quick response

"I cannot recommend this cleaning company highly enough! I hired them to do a deep clean on a three-story townhome to get it ready for the rental market, and they exceeded every expectation. Preparing a rental property is always stressful, but they made the transition seamless. Managing three floors of living space is no small feat, but the team tackled it with incredible efficiency and attention to detail. Here is what really impressed me: Flawless Attention to Detail: They didn't just do a surface wipe-down. They got into every nook and cranny, from the baseboards and window tracks to the inside of the appliances and cabinets. Tackled the High-Traffic Areas: With three floors, stairs can be a nightmare to get perfectly clean. They made the stairwells and banisters look brand new. Professional & Reliable: They arrived right on time, brought all their own high-quality supplies, and worked tirelessly until the job was done."

"James was very polite. It snowed that day and he was a bit late but I was called twice to keep me up to speed on his arrival. I really appreciated that. My wood burning stove was the cleanest I've ever seen it and I would hire them again!"

"They came on time and repaired the chimney. The repair involved removing the cracked cap, and loose bricks. They then replaced the bricks, pointed cracks, put moisture barrier and an expansion joint around the stack and then replaced the cap. Took pictures & cleaned up."

Chimney Sweep questions, answered by experts

The timeline for fire damage restoration varies significantly, from a day or two to over a year, depending on the extent of the damage. For minor incidents like a small cooking fire, cleaning up soot and removing smoke odors may only take a day or two. Repairing minor damage might take about one to two weeks. However, a major fire requiring structural repairs, full property renovation, and replacement of materials can take anywhere from six to 12 months to over a year. This longer timeline often includes waiting for insurance approvals and contractor scheduling. It's best to consult with your insurance provider and restoration team to get an accurate timeline for your specific situation.

DIY cleanup is not recommended due to hazardous soot, odors, and potential structural issues.

Neglecting to clean your chimney can lead to serious safety hazards. A primary risk is the buildup of creosote, a highly flammable substance that can ignite and cause a dangerous chimney fire. This buildup can also create blockages in the flue, resulting in poor venting of smoke, soot, and toxic gases like carbon monoxide, which can then enter your home and create dangerously poor indoor air quality. Additionally, creosote is acidic and can damage the chimney's mortar and metal components over time, potentially allowing smoke to leak into your house. To prevent these issues, it is essential to schedule an annual chimney cleaning with a professional.

The first step is removing water or chemical residue, if applicable, after extinguishing. Next, your professional will clean up soot, remove damaged materials, treat the smoke damage, and complete any necessary structural repairs. After that, your pro will begin the build-back process and install finishes to restore your home to its previous condition.

Yes, carpets should be replaced after a house fire or significant smoke damage, even if they appear undamaged. Smoke, soot, particulates, and chemicals can penetrate deep into the carpet fibers and padding, making complete removal a complicated and time-consuming process. If water was used to extinguish the fire, it can also soak through the carpet and padding, creating a risk of mold and mildew growth. Due to these challenges and potential health risks, replacing the carpet is the safest and most effective solution.
