"Derek completed a chimney project for us including a full inspection, flue repair, chimney cap replacement w tile caps, and brick tuck pointing. His work and cost of the project was valuable to the resale of our home but also peace of mind that we are up and running for chimney use. His pricing was fair and the quality of his work was outstanding. He found matching brick from our early 70's home. We recommend him constantly to friends and family. Highly recommend using Derek and his company."

"Disclaimer: the service and personability/demeanor vary with the tech you get. We have had two different ones. The first one I cannot remember his name, but he tried to scare us into paying for things that weren't necessary at the time and were very, very costly. We're talking thousands of dollars for chimney repair. However, the second tech that came out on a different occasion was James, I believe, and we absolutely love him! Not only was he professional, he was very matter-of-fact, and gave us not only our options, but what each path would lead to down the road. He helped us make some very smart decisions regarding our fireplace, and was very personable. It is because of him that we continue to use A-1 for all of our chimney services to this day."

Chimney Sweep questions, answered by experts

Homeowners insurance does not cover DIY mistakes, so tread lightly if you plan to tackle your own home repairs or renovations. If you cause damage to your home while attempting repairs or renovations yourself, the cost of fixing the damage is often considered your responsibility. Most policies only cover damage caused by covered perils like fire, theft, or weather—not by homeowner errors.

Short circuits can cause significant damage to electrical appliances, bodily harm, and potentially death to humans. For this reason, they are a serious occurrence. If you’re unable to find and fix a short circuit on your own, you must reach out to a licensed electrician for help.

Some of the most common chimney problems include:

  • Creosote buildup

  • Chimney blockage

  • Deteriorating brickwork or stonework

  • Cracked chimney top

  • Damaged flashing

  • Flue liner damage or deterioration

  • Damaged chimney cap

If you suspect you have a chimney problem, contact a masonry contractor for an inspection. 

Yes, professionals use specialized treatments to remove smoke odors and improve indoor air quality.

The timeline for smoke damage remediation can range from a single day to several months, depending on the extent of the damage, the size of the affected area, and the methods used. For minor damage, such as removing cigarette smoke odors from a single room, the process might take only one to two days and typically involves deep cleaning, painting, and sealing walls. Some methods, like ozone treatments, can take 24 to 48 hours, though multiple treatments may be necessary. More extensive smoke damage, such as from a house fire, can take three weeks or longer to clean and treat. If significant material restoration or replacement is needed, the timeline can extend to six to 12 months. A smoke damage restoration professional can provide a more accurate estimate for your specific situation.
