"I was going to have my wood burning fireplace converted to gas so they did a chimney inspection and discoverd extensive damage from birds nesting in chimney. They provided an immediate clean up estimate and I hired them to do that work to protect against further damage . They recommended that a gas fireplace was not a safe option so we talked through options for an electric insert. I decided to wait on that but was very impressed with customer service and quality of work."

"The workers and office staff were easy to talk to, well informed, courteous , and efficient. They performed a thorough inspection. Recommended and installed a stainless liner and cap for the furnace flue and a new damper on the fireplace flue. Their price was better than previous quotes and even set up a partial payment plan. I am very pleased with the work they did."

My name is Kara and my husband Jason helps me run our own small home cleaning business for the past 3 years. We cover a pretty wide range of area from Bloomington to Princeton. We are located in Chillicothe IL. We do general deep cleans to move in and out cleans. Also some general side work like windows, carpet cleaning, deck painting, and general lawn care as well. You ask we will let you know if we can do it. Cleaning as a team of 2 just gets your home cleaned faster and more efficient. It cuts the time in half as most people prefer this. We have many references and would enjoy seeing some new faces. Our clients truly become like family. I originally started cleaning for merry maids & cottage care in my early 20’s once I had my first child I started back into it so she could come with me & not have to go to daycare. I have over 15 years in this industry and can usually make things look brand new again! Instant gratification feels good I look forward to making your home sparkle again

"Very friendly and personable. Courteous. They protected the hearth and carpet in front of the fireplace while cleaning. In and out in 15 minutes. Little pricey. Last service I used was $35-$40 cheaper."

"Joe did a fantastic job! I love old houses, but old houses can be very difficult to fix! Joe had to dig into the walls to fix and upgrade the plumbing, but what a superb job he did! Joe is very passionate about his work and he stuck with the job until it was done up to his standards: amazing! The bathtub looks phenomenal, like brand new. It's 75 years old! Joe is a great guy, very easy to work with and laid back. Very trustworthy, honest, and reasonable. I would recommend him highly. I will certainly be giving him more work to do."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Even though ventless fireplaces are safe to use overall, you shouldn’t let them run for more than a few hours per day. It’s also important to make sure the room with the fireplace is well-ventilated. If not, the water vapor from the fire could increase the humidity levels in your home, potentially resulting in mold growth.

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) says that chimneys and their associated elements like fireplaces, vents, or stoves should be cleaned at least once a year before the start of seasonal use. According to the Chimney Safety Institute of America, a chimney should be cleaned when there is 1/8 inch of soot buildup. If there’s more than that, creosote—a flammable byproduct of burning wood—can form and increase the risk of a chimney fire.

A 40-pound bag of wood pellets can provide a solid 24 hours or so of burn time, though the exact length may vary. If you’re using your pellet stove as an exclusive heat source during the winter, you’ll need an estimated 100 to 150 of those 40-pound bags, depending on how hot you like to keep your home, its size, the climate, and other factors.

Electric fireplaces give off more heat than you might think. Because they don’t lose heat through a ventilation system, which is required for wood-burning and gas fireplaces, they’re able to disperse more heat into the room. However, many electric fireplaces are limited to a max of 5,000 or 5,200 BTU heat output, and you can get more from traditional fireplaces.

Most cleanings take 1-3 hours, but extensive soot buildup or liner damage may require additional time.
