Nick's Chimney Service & Duct Cleaning of St Paul MN has been family owned and operated for over 16 years. We serve the Twin Cities Metro and Western Wisconsin areas, and we provide quality, reliable services at affordable rates.

"I had them out a few years ago to do $650.00 in tuck-pointing on my chimney since it was causing water intrusion into my basement. Their work started failing at the end of 2024 so I called them to see how much they stand behind their work and if they can at least inspect it to see what other issues the chimney may have. They never called or emailed me back so it all felt like a scam for them to get some quick cash with a half-hearted ‘fix’ when they did the tuck-pointing."

"It went well. It was wonderful to see a family work together like that father and two sons they got along with. They got the job done. I wanted to pitch in and help myself sometimes just because it's something I used to do. I had to force myself to stand back and just let them do their work. I would absolutely hire them again. It was a pleasure to have them out here. I even cooked them a barbecue one day. It was awesome."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

An inspection to look for damper handles is the best way to know if your house has dampers in the ducts. Not all homes have them, as some home builders may try to save money on the construction by leaving dampers out of the ducts. You can install them yourself later if desired, but you may have to do quite a bit of work and take on a partial air duct replacement cost, which could be $1,000 or more.

Homeowners insurance can be voided in several scenarios. That can include making too many claims in a short period of time, leaving a home vacant for an extended period of time, renting out a home or room illegally, using a home as a business illegally, and any kind of criminal activity connected to the home.

Prepare to leave your home for a long absence by making sure small appliances and electronic devices are unplugged. You should also shut valves to your sinks, dishwasher, and washing machine. Set your thermostat closer to outside temperatures or a minimum of 55 degrees Fahrenheit, stop your mail (or have someone pick it up), and put at least one light on a timer.

There are several signs that your chimney is dirty and ready for cleaning. Look for the following:

  • A buildup of creosote and soot inside the chimney

  • The room fills with smoke when you use the fireplace

  • The damper is black with creosote residue

  • When you light a fire, it quickly goes out

In general, it’s best to schedule a cleaning at least once a year before winter so you can safely use the fireplace. 

It’s worth getting a wind mitigation inspection if you’re trying to save on your homeowners insurance. Plus, passing an inspection proves that your home is in good condition if a tropical storm, hurricane, or windstorm comes your way. Even if you don’t pass, getting a wind mitigation inspection is still helpful because it will let you know which areas to improve to make your home safer.
