"The cleaning guy came and started cleaning using his Wire chimney brush by hand. Initially I asked him how come he was not covering the fireplace opening to prevent the dusts from coming inside the room. He assured me that his vacuum and drop cloths would be enough. Later I found out that the reason he didn't feel the need to cover the fireplace opening was because, he wasn't using any power tools to remove creosote collected in the walls although I mentioned to him that my chimney was not cleaned professionally for last 6 years since we bought the house but we did use the fireplace every winter. His simple answer was he doesn't like to use power tools and other techs in his company uses them and that is how he cleans the chimneys. So, I told him I watched at least 8-10 YouTube videos before I called his company and the said I shouldn't argue with him just looking at the YouTube videos because we hired him and he is the professional. He was rude and didn't have any sense of customer service. I just felt that he saw this job as another $ amount instead of a job he needs to perform well. I need to get some repair work done on my chimney as well. I do not feel comfortable hiring them to perform the service as I feel they will try to find short cut route from my today's experience. Update: Six Penny called me later after they saw my initial review and asked me very unprofessionally and offensively why I wrote the review."

At this time, we are not working with GAS fireplaces. Family business 8 years of experiences. payment methods we accept cash credit cards most major cards accepted. If method is paying with credit card please provide an email address for further invoice.

"WONDERFUL! Jimmy and his fellow technician did a fantastic job of cleaning the dryer vent. I was appalled at how much lint was removed! They were fast, efficient, and cleaned up the area just like new. I was so impressed I asked for an estimate to replace panels in my fireplace while Jimmy was here. I'll be using Finest Chimney Sweep again in the near future! Well done!"

About Me Hi, I’m Heather! I’ve been a professional cleaner for over 10 years, and I truly love what I do. Cleaning isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I take pride in. I find it therapeutic and rewarding to transform a space and leave it fresh, organized, and welcoming. My clients appreciate my reliability, attention to detail, and the care I put into every home I clean. I treat every space as if it were my own, and I always aim to go above and beyond expectations. Whether it’s a deep clean or regular upkeep, I believe a clean home brings peace of mind. Fun Fact: I actually find cleaning relaxing! There’s something satisfying about seeing instant results and knowing I’ve helped make someone’s day a little easier.

Chimneys and fireplaces never go out of style. From older townhomes in Washington,D.C. to newer ranch-style homes in Northern Virginia and Central Maryland, homeowners gather around their fireplaces nightly for meals, television, homework and entertainment. It’s a gathering place for their busy lifestyles. Additionally, for many other homeowners, it’s a source of heat. Your fireplace works hard during the cold fall and freezing winter to keep your home comfortable. It has to be working at maximum capacity, year-round, to provide the heat your home needs. We understand your situation perfectly! Genesis Chimney has certified and experienced technicians who can install, clean, repair and service your chimney and fireplace. We are certified by the CSIA (Chimney Safety institute of America), Certified Chimney Sweep, Masonry Repairs, Chimney Relining and Chimney Physics. (Certification number 10034). We are also an NFI (National Fireplace Institute) Certified Gas Specialist.

"Amazing service and value!"

Fireplace Cleaners questions, answered by experts

When comparing which is better between German schmear, whitewash, and limewash, your answer will depend on the look you're going for. German schmear is the best option for those who want a heavily distressed look for their brick without full coverage. Whitewash is best if you like the current brick color and want it to show through. Limewash paint is best for full coverage.

You can turn a red brick white through a process called whitewashing. Whitewash isn’t a stain but rather is made from water and white latex paint. Adding more water to the mix will make the solution look lighter when applied, and adding more paint will make it look more white.

If you already have the tools, like a miter saw, a stud finder, and a nail gun or hammer, installing shiplap costs $500 to $1,000 for supplies. You’ll also spend $200 to $2,200 for the cost of an electric fireplace if you decide to add one into your setup.

You can also hire a carpenter for $35 to $100 per hour, plus the cost of materials, to install shiplap around your fireplace. If you need help installing a fireplace before adding the shiplap, labor can cost $225 to $2,180 for fireplace installation costs

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

You may be wondering: can you paint cement? Fortunately, the answer is yes.

To change the color of your cinder blocks, you have two options. You can either paint them or stain them. Either way, you'll be able to choose from a wide range of color options. Some popular colors for cinder block painting include off-white shades and gray tones, which add a modern spin to the traditional gray blocks.
