About us

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.

I called Bob Coles of Rite-A-Way Chimney Sweep Inc on Tuesday 2/8/11 and he came out the next morning at 9:00 AM as scheduled. I had used Bob last year for a cleaning and had talked to him about converting to Gas Logs which he sells. Bob presented the various types and we decided to go with the Vent-Less model. Bob went on to clean the chimney and firebox. He even painted the interior of the firebox to make it look better with the new gas logs. He then installed to new gas logs and gave us a full rundown on how to operate them, which was quite simple. The whole process took less than 3 hours including cleanup which was minimal. I will recommend Rite-A-Way Chimney Sweep to all.

It went great. Bob was very knowledgeable and gave me tips for taking care of my chimney, like how often to clean (based on amount of wood burned rather than by a calendar schedule). He brought my attention to the poor work that was done by the previous chimney service, as evidenced by the pile of creosote and ash that was removed from the chimney. I got a quote of $120 over the phone for the cleaning and then opted to have a chimney cap installed to prevent energy loss from my home going up the chimney. I will use Rite-A-Way again in the future and highly recommend them to others.

They responded quickly with only 3 days notice. They showed up 40 minutes but were courteous and thorough. They did a complete job and didn't cut corners.

He was very prompt. He came out the next day. He was good at explaining everything to me. He had a good quality of door and very knowledgeable about them. He was not only on time but even a little early.

Glenn came out with his helper Brian and they put down tarps to protect the flooring. They vacuumed out the ash dump and then used the special tools to clean the flue. The chimney apparently was not used a whole lot as they said it was pretty clean. Glenn wrote up the paperwork and explained that if the fireplace was used as little as we use it, it will not need a cleaning until 2009.

Great. Called on Tuesday, cleaning was done on Saturday. Was given an estimated arrival of 11 am to 1 pm. He arrived at 11:15 am. Was very clean. He laid down a runner across the entire floor before walking on it. All dust and soot was vacuumed.

THEY CAME IN AND UNHOOKED THE DRYER AND CLEANED THE VENTS FROM THE INSIDE OUT, WHICH I LIKED. THEY WERE VERY ANXIOUS TO DO A GOOD JOB AND THEY DID! IM VERY PLEASED WITH THEIR SERVICE AND WE WILL BE USING THEM AGAIN. HE ALSO CAPPED OUR OUTSIDE VENTS. I REALLY APPRECIATE HIS HONESTY. ALSO, HE SAID WE SHOULDNT HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN FOR FIVE YEARS, WHEREAS OTHERS WOULD HAVE PUSHED US TO DO IT YEARLY.
