We utilize current industry technology for unsurpassed service while still maintaining the best price to product / service ratio. Rest assured and enjoy your Superior Chimney!... Superior Chimney is a family owned and operated chimney sweep and masonry chimney restoration company. Our family recognized the demand for a service overhaul in an industry shadowed by skepticism as a result of it being primarily commission/incentive based for its technicians. We are proud to be a service company, not a sales company! It is our commitment to maintain safe use of all chimney types in all of Chicagoland while exceeding your expected level of service. Our fleet of trucks service all six Chicagoland counties, year round, in effort to minimize chimney fire statistics.

"If I could give an A++ I would. Superior Chimney is indeed that. Had the estimate quoted back in June and at the time, the work was scheduled for November but got a call saying they had a cancellation and would I be amenable to having the work moved up to this week. When Marcio and Nick arrived the first day, Marcio took a look at the brick my wife and I selected and suggested a better color match that what we had picked out ourselves. He said "my name's on the project" and he felt that the color we picked would contrast too much with the existing painted brick. He drove to the brickyard a few miles away, picked up the new brick, and returned the others. He was right! The color he picked out matches much better. I greatly appreciated a craftsman who takes pride in his work. It was very hot for the two days they worked but everything looks great. They took care not to damage the landscaping around the chimney and thoroughly cleaned up after they finished. Couldn't have asked for a better experience."
