"Very well. Grant was on time for every date scheduled. He took the time to explain what was wrong and how he would recommend fixing it. He and Shane were meticulous in their work and did a great job cleaning up. A follow-up visit was necessary to put final seal coat on. This was done in a timely manner, as soon as weather would allow. I would recommend and would call them back for any future chimney work"

"I had my chimney inspected and cleaned, and the whole experience was excellent. The technician was on time, professional, and helped explain the condition of the chimney and what was being done for me to understand. The inspection was thorough, the cleaning was done efficiently, and everything was left spotless afterward. I really appreciated the clear communication and honest recommendations. I’d definitely use this company again and highly recommend them to anyone needing chimney services."

Chimney Sweep questions, answered by experts

DIY restoration for small areas is possible with proper safety gear and equipment, though comprehensive damage benefits from professional restoration.

Yes, most homeowners insurance policies cover fire damage and restoration, provided the fire was not set intentionally or caused by negligence. Accidental fires, such as those from electrical issues, cooking, or gas, are typically covered. Your policy will usually cover emergency services like roof tarping, the full cost of remediation and rebuilding, and may also cover alternative housing while your home is being restored. You will be responsible for paying your policy's deductible. It is important to check your policy details to see how coverage is calculated—it may be for the full replacement cost of damaged items or the actual cash value, which accounts for depreciation. To expedite your claim, contact your insurance company immediately and have all necessary documentation ready.

Hard materials like glass, metal, and hardwood floors, washable fabrics, and undamaged electrical appliances can often be salvaged after a fire, although it depends on the extent of the damage. For washable fabrics, make sure to use a phosphate mix during the washing process to extract the smoke smell. There are a few things you should throw away after a fire, like canned foods and cosmetics, even if they don’t look like they’re damaged.

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. 

Regular HVAC filter changes, deep cleaning, and air quality monitoring help maintain a healthy environment.
