"Al had come the week before to clean ourchimney.  He kept the area very clean so there was nothing I had to do after he finished.  He provided lots of advice about how to determine the airflow in the house, how to convert the wood burning fireplace to a gas one and what the differences are between the different type of chimney caps.  We needed a chimney cap and he came out the next week to install it. 
He is very personable, professional and thorough.  I highly recommend this provider.

"Professional, trustworthy, friendly, knowledgeable, efficient. Fernando and Jesus gave us a call 30 minutes before arriving. Examined our fireplace and explained what they discovered and gave us several solution options . They swept the chimney, cleaned the fire box, and examined the chimney top. They caulked around the cap. Great service ! 5 stars!!"

Chimney Sweep questions, answered by experts

Solar panels that haven’t been properly inspected and maintained pose several risks to homeowners. Firstly, a dirty, obstructed, or malfunctioning solar panel won’t be able to generate as much power, which could lead to power shortages and wasted money. But more importantly, neglected solar panel arrays can become dangerous if left for too long. Corroded wires and exposed circuitry are fire hazards, so it’s strongly recommended to keep up with regular maintenance to protect your home.

Depending on who’s doing the estimating, about 22,000 to 25,000 chimney fires happen each year in the United States. Given the fact that millions of Americans have fireplaces (and chimneys), that means chimney fires aren’t exactly common—but they’re not rare, either. Since they’re so dangerous, it’s important to take precautions to prevent them.

Costs range from $1,000 to $10,000, depending on the extent of the damage and affected areas.

Neglecting to clean your chimney can lead to serious safety hazards. A primary risk is the buildup of creosote, a highly flammable substance that can ignite and cause a dangerous chimney fire. This buildup can also create blockages in the flue, resulting in poor venting of smoke, soot, and toxic gases like carbon monoxide, which can then enter your home and create dangerously poor indoor air quality. Additionally, creosote is acidic and can damage the chimney's mortar and metal components over time, potentially allowing smoke to leak into your house. To prevent these issues, it is essential to schedule an annual chimney cleaning with a professional.

DIY is not recommended due to the complexity and potential structural issues. Hire professionals for thorough and safe repairs.
