Chimney sweeping is how we got started, and our most prevalent service. We service Wood, Pellet, and Gas stoves and fireplaces. We're able to sweep and diagnose any issues you may be experiencing. While we carry a minimal amount of inventory on our trailer, we can order almost anything your fireplace may require! A large portion of what we do at Idaho Chimney Life is residential work for homeowners. We're able to perform same day installation of most Gas, Wood, and Pellet stoves and inserts. We're also able to work quickly with new construction. When all you have is new construction framing and plywood on your roof, installation of stoves and fireplaces moves quickly. Making us an excellent resource for builders and general contractors. We also do a lot of masonry and concrete work to repair existing brick and mortar chimneys!

Fireplace Cleaners questions, answered by experts

Some homeowners compare German schmear versus limewash because they look similar, though they’re different techniques. German schmear involves a thin application of mortar to stone or brick, which is then partially wiped off the surface. German schmear is more affordable ($1 to $4 per square foot), and it lasts one or two decades with minimal maintenance. As a downside, it only comes in white or gray.

You can turn a red brick white through a process called whitewashing. Whitewash isn’t a stain but rather is made from water and white latex paint. Adding more water to the mix will make the solution look lighter when applied, and adding more paint will make it look more white.

When comparing which is better between German schmear, whitewash, and limewash, your answer will depend on the look you're going for. German schmear is the best option for those who want a heavily distressed look for their brick without full coverage. Whitewash is best if you like the current brick color and want it to show through. Limewash paint is best for full coverage.

You should use an angled brush to first paint the mortar lines, then go in with a high-density roller to evenly paint the bricks one at a time. You can also use a flat paintbrush to paint individual bricks, but a roller is faster and easier to use thanks to its longer handle and wider surface area for coating the bricks. To finish, go in with the paint brush for edges or hard-to-reach areas.

Cracks in the chimney can be very serious, depending on their location and size. Even small cracks can become serious over time if left unrepaired. Cracks allow heat and moisture to deteriorate your chimney and harmful carbon monoxide gas to seep into your home. Small cracks can often be caulked, while large cracked sections may require full replacement.
