We are a company that cares about our clients and the craftsmanship of the work we provide. Honesty, hard work, and reliability are the foundations of our business model. We strive for the utmost integrity in each and every job we complete
"Needed my dryer vent cleaned. When Ned called I explained to him that I had two 90 degree angles. He assured me he had all the equipment needed to handle this job. When the two men arrived my husband showed them a picture of the two angles in the vent. One guy didn't speak english and walked away. Didn't even want to look at the picture. The other guy who spoke limited english just told us to call his boss. We told him his boss had already assured us they could do the job. Now for all the equipment they brought - a generator that they couldn't even get started. We have an outlet out back and told them to use it. They then just put a small hose in the vent which was blowing air. I was in the closet with the dryer and could hear the hose as it came in. It stopped at the first angle and couldn't bend to go any further. They then left. I was also told that they would bag up any lint that came out on the lawn. Big surprise - there wasn't any. My vent is still clogged."

Choosing our company brings you the best of both worlds. We are a small family owned business with just as much experience as the big companies. Our technicians have over 30 years experience each and are also masons. Since we are a family owned business, we aren't just putting in our time at work, we put in our all every time. Don't forget about our no mess guarantee! What to expect with us: One of the first things we do before we start is put down a drop cloth to keep your home clean. After we've thoroughly cleaned and inspected the inside of your fireplace, we then check out the condition of the outside of the chimney. If we find anything wrong while we are on the roof, we will take pictures to show you. We will then go over a estimate with you to decide whether you'd like to proceed with the recommended repairs. Most repairs can be made the same day unless we need to special order some parts. Our customers say that we are courteous, prompt, fair, thorough and clean!
"I am very happy with the chimney tuckpointing job done by Fire It Up and Robert was very mindful of other areas of my home which a little tuckpointing was also needed. I will recommend Rob to my friends and family."

Although there are no set rules for tipping house cleaners, you may want to consider tipping from 15% to 20% of the cost of house cleaning, or up to 25% if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the cleaner’s policy or preference for tipping.
There are several things to know before hiring a cleaning service to do any work on your home.
What services do they offer?
Do they work alone or with a company?

Do they have insurance?
Do they offer a guarantee?
Do they bring cleaning supplies and equipment?
Do you need to be home when they clean?

Deep cleaning, which may include window washing, cleaning under and behind furniture, and polishing surfaces that are harder to clean can cost from $200 to $400.
No, house cleaners or house cleaning services do not need to be certified or licensed.
