"Chuck arrived with a helper and explained everything to us. He cleaned the chimney and left us with some estimates for potential work. He was knowledgeable and pleasant. I would use him again."
I’ve been cleaning homes for about 10 years now and genuinely love what I do. I actually got started helping my mom, and it turned into something I really take pride in. I enjoy making spaces feel fresh, comfortable, and taken care of.
"They showed up early and asked if they could go ahead and get started. They did my roof in one day. They cleaned up extremely well. They guaranteed their work. Made sure all the nails were picked up. Had put tarp all around the house. Removed all lawn ornaments and put them all back when they are done. Did all the extras not necessarily asked for - went the extra mile that we really appreciated. Their crew was absolutely wonderful, cordial. Any questions we had they answered. Brian, the Sales Manager, came out everyday to keep watch. The experience was fabulous. The owner even came out to see how things were going. They worked with our insurance company and went over the house with them. It would be a wonderful world if all companies had this work ethic. I recommended them to my neighbors and 3 of them hired them."
"Nick was very professional and went out of his way to communicate on how he was going to fix our chimney. By using pictures we were able to see the completed job since we are from out of town. He was very fair in the price and we were very happy on the work that was done. Thanks Nick and ServiceMagic"

Cleaning your own chimney can be risky, especially if it hasn't been done in a long time and you lack the proper tools, knowledge, and safety equipment. The process involves getting onto the roof and handling soot, which poses safety issues. Remember, inhaling chimney soot is a significant health risk. Wearing the proper respiratory equipment is required.
The height of the chimney for your outdoor fireplace depends on where the fireplace is located. Ideally, the chimney should be 2 to 3 feet higher than surrounding structures; this allows smoke to ventilate properly without endangering anyone or anything.
Note: Your municipality may have strict requirements regarding chimney heights, so it’s always a good idea to check local building codes.
DIY is not recommended due to safety risks. Hire professionals for proper diagnosis and repair.
A sneaky but important element to how long your new fireplace runs is choosing the right burner size. Avoid choosing a bioethanol fireplace with a small burner (less than two gallons) and opt for one that holds between two to four gallons for a longer burn time or else you’ll be stuck frequently refilling your fireplace.
The time required for a chimney inspection depends on the inspection level. A Level 1 inspection typically takes between 45 minutes and two hours, with an average of about an hour and a half. A Level 2 inspection usually takes less than two hours. A more in-depth Level 3 inspection can take up to five hours, or even multiple days if it requires removing materials. The total duration also depends on the chimney's size, condition, and how long it has been since its last inspection; chimneys with severe damage will require a longer inspection.
