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.

"Making an appointment was easy and fit our schedule. Chase explained things thoroughly and the work was completed to our satisfaction. They did a great job cleaning up after servicing our fireplace."

A-1 Safety Chimney Service, Inc. is a family owned and operated company that has been in business since 1989. We pride our selves on great service at a fair price. At A-1 all of our technicians are certified with the Chimney Safety Institute of America, and we are fully bonded and insured. We are accredited members of the Better Business Bureau, members of the National Chimney Sweep Guild, we hold the best of Lombard award for 2012, 2013&2014 and the best of Glen Ellyn award for 2012 .

"BEWARE of this company!!! Everything started out great, the staff was initially incredibly responsive and came out for an estimate. Their estimate was reasonable and competitive to a 2nd bid I had received, and I was offered a $500 discount and a commitment that the work would be done in 1.5 days if I signed the contract in 24 hours. I went ahead and signed the estimate. That is when the problems started.... The project manager (Moses) was completely non-responsive as to when the work would be completed. They were provided access to my home, yet never contacted me to let me know when they would arrive or when work would be completed. 3 weeks later, I still did not have a response on work completion and Moses stopped answering my messages and would not answer my calls. Finally, after calling the office (which is always closed and has an outdated voicemail response that hasn't been updated since Oct. 3rd) , I received a call from the technician. He tells me that work is complete, and that he'll be doing a walk through in a few days. Today, he calls to tell me he is there , but he doesn't know where the main gas line is and he can't figure out how to get gas to the fireplace. Ok, interesting... I call my gas company because we have working hot water and have been paying our gas bill and they tell me gas is entering the home. I tell this to technician, who tells me, well, that's too bad, they don't know what the problem is and that is my problem to solve, the work is complete on their end. How is work complete, if you have hooked up a gas fireplace , but can't figure out how to get gas to it? Isn't this something you would confirm BEFORE doing work? I can't get in touch with anyone in charge at the office and I am honestly shocked that anyone could have had a positive experience with this company."

Coast To Coast Masonry Group, Inc. provides top quality masonry restoration services to a variety of clients throughout the Chicago land area for over 23 years. We remain committed to the traditional values of client satisfaction that have earned a solid reputation in the masonry industry. Based on quality, time completion, excellent service, integrity and client satisfaction.

"VERY impressed with the work and overall professionalism of Coast to Coast. From the proposal/quote stage all the way through payment, everything was fully communicated, executed quickly, and delivered with the utmost attention to detail —probably 2-3 weeks from first contact to finished work. They fixed the tuck pointing on our very old, crumbling limestone foundation and installed 3 glass brick windows. Even rough areas I would've expected them to miss because I hadn't explicitly pointed them out were touched up. Would definitely use again in the future. THANKS"

Family owned & operated. No subs. Cost is determined by the job. No travel hours service. Charges call to inquire for Angie's list member discount. Award winning.

"Had a chimney cleaning and inspection in early Oct. Both Sol and his assistant Margaret were friendly and professional. Sol is very knowledgeable and answered all my questions, and I felt very comfortable with going ahead to have his company install a chimney liner. Greg and Gary came about 10 days later to do the installation, and were also friendly, professional and respectful of my home. They politely answered more questions and cleaned up the area better than it was before."

There's no question that a wood-burning stove or fireplace requires careful maintenance for safety's sake. Burned wood creates creosote, and this highly flammable by-product is deposited on your flue liner and smoke chamber over time. When there's too much build up, all it takes is one solitary single spark to ignite this creosote and cause a chimney fire. You don't want to put your home and your family in danger, but you have every right to enjoy your fire place or wood-burning stove. You'll find this danger can be alleviated through regular sweeping and cleaning of your chimney, and our trained experts will do it right every time! Contact us today to get rid of the soot and build up to make sure your chimneys are safe and clean! We proudly serve all of the Southwest suburbs in the Chicago area.

"Bob showed up right on time and performed a Chimney Sweep. We had issues with smoke coming in the house in which he determined the issue and offered an inexpensive repair. In addition,we had him fully convert to a gas fireplace with the existing fake logs we had. He set everything up really nice and painted the interior walls and it looks great. The work was fast and very reasonable. Highly reccomend."

Super Service Award Winner for 2016. Family owned & operated. Please call Larry at (847) 404-1687! I'd love to speak with you about your contracting needs!

"Had a leak in my roof by the chimney. Roof is 8 years old. The previous roofing company that installed the roof did not flash the chimney, and this was the cause of the leak. Gustafson Roofing came promptly to my house, identified the problem, offered me a written estimate the next day, and came three days later with a 5 man roofing crew and all of the correct materials to reroof a section of the roof, flash the chimney, and end the leak. They did very professional work, completed the job, and cleaned the site. The price was the same as the estmate. Would use them for a new roof in the future when that day arrives!"

Your one stop shop for all your fireplace needs: Gas Logs (contemporary and traditional), Glass Doors, Inserts, and Mantels. One of Arlington Heights’ oldest Family owned & operated businesses began selling patio furniture 70 years ago. Northwest Metalcraft has remained a leading retailer of wrought iron, teak, wicker & envirowood patio furniture; BBQ (Weber, Solaire, Broilmaster & More); fireplace equipment, Fire Pits and mailboxes (address plaques) and more. Additional DBA - Northwest Metalcraft Inc. Additional contact names - Daniel Mayer & Dawn Selleck.

"I bought a new patio table from NW Metalcrafters to replace an older one that was no longer usable. The salesperson Brian was very helpful with the sale, letting me take home color samples to match the new table's finish with my old chairs that I had planned to keep. Several days after the table was delivered, I noticed that one of the legs was bent at a welding joint. I sent photos to NW Metalcrafters and they agreed right away to get a new table from the manufacturer as part of the warranty. Andrew was helpful in arranging and scheduling pickup of the old table and the delivery of the new table."

Chimney Repair questions, answered by experts

Roof repair costs about $1,100 on average. The cost to repair a roof depends on the size, type of roof, and severity of the issue. Additional cost factors include the type of repairs needed, the pitch and complexity of the roof design, any permits required, and the labor cost in your location. The time of year can influence the overall price, too, as winter repairs can be more expensive due to the slippery conditions for working on a roof. 

Hail damage to a roof looks different depending on the type of roof. On asphalt roofs, you’ll likely see dark circles on the impact sites of the larger pieces of hail, and you may see small cracks in the surrounding shingles. Hail damage is easiest to spot on a metal roof, as you’ll notice dings and dents where the hail was severe enough to cause damage. Whether you notice signs of hail damage or not, it’s best to have a hail damage repair company inspect your roof after a major storm to assess the damage.

Losing your cell or data signal is a problem that’s become more relevant in the digital age, one which metal roofs can cause. Metal roofs can rust, which is a con, but another reason to get a stone-coated roof is the added protection against that happening. Without proper insulation, metal roofs can be loud and are difficult to work on because they're slippery Finally, metal roof installation is one of the more expensive options.

The green coloration that develops on copper roofs is called a “patina,” and it’s a result of mild oxidation on the surface. The oxidation process is not harmful to your roof. In fact, the surface corrosion acts as a protective layer and won’t spread to the core of your copper roof materials. The discoloration will progress much more quickly in damp or humid climates than it will in dry climates. If you don’t like the green color, you can seal your roof to preserve the shiny, rose-gold look.

Metal roofing gets hot when it’s exposed to direct sunlight, but aluminum is naturally reflective and can actually help keep your home cooler in hotter, sunnier climates. The solar reflectance of aluminum is significantly higher than that of asphalt shingles and clay tile, so a metal roof will reduce solar heat gain in your home.
