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."

AMPEST EXTERMINATING & WILDLIFE CONTROL
AMPEST EXTERMINATING & WILDLIFE CONTROL
FAMILY OWNED & OPERATED.
"FABULOUS!!! Joe really knows what he is doing. He is upbeat and communicative. He is punctual and creative in thinking. He did not want me to pay for traps when he felt that they were unnecessary so he covered a hole going into my attic to see if the varmints would tear through it again (or if they had already abandoned this nest). When they did tear thought the marker, he applied the $140 inspection fee to the trapping fee and dealt with it that way. Brilliant."

Critter Detectives
Critter Detectives
4 Employees. No subs. Cost is determined by the job.
"Great thanks to Lou at Critter Detectives. Why? Because something had not worked according to plan from an earlier job they had done at my house, and Critter Detectives came back and fixed it -- no problems, no worries and done properly (within a couple days of my call). Sometimes things don't go the way they are planned and need to be fixed. Critter Detectives did that -- fixing it for me at no additional cost. Originally, the job was to put in a heavy screen barrier between the ground and the bottom of my enclosed porch. It was to be installed all around the front of the house, up to the point where the house foundation starts. The purpose of the metal screen was to stop the ground squirrels from digging in, under my closed in porch where they had set up a huge burrow. I had put in stinky stuff to keep them out and everything else you can think of. Anyway, Critter Detectives sent someone to come do it. Unfortunately, that worker didn't complete the screening installation, stopping a little short of the edge of my foundation. The result that I just noticed a couple days ago? The ground squirrels had found the gap and dug back in, under my porch. It must be quite the underground palace to live in during a cold, Chicago winter. Today, Lou and a different member of his team came and fixed it! No problem. Nice, professional and no worries. I will hire them again if I ever need something. I'm delighted."

Chem-Wise Ecological Pest Management
Chem-Wise Ecological Pest Management
Chem-Wise is a trusted, locally owned, full service pest control company offering convenient residential and commercial pest control throughout Chicagoland. We are experts in identifying Illinois pests, and using the safest, most effective methods to eliminate them.
"They were great the first year and then consistently went downhill. I ask to come when I was home because of the dogs and every time that was an issue. Then I would pre-pay for 3 -4 services and they either would not come or would do a "fast" spray. The last service for this year I got an email they were coming and then nothing. I know because I have cameras around the house. When I complained they told me they would send some to do the spray (this was a week ago) you know the bugs are really bad in a freeze? Done, will not use anymore and will not recommend."

"Michael Lyday was the technician and was very professional and courteous. He set a trap and returned the next morning to find a female raccoon.

He captured two more kits and told me to call him again if I heard any more sounds. There weren’t any more and I was impressed that he still called to follow up.
