Hi, I’m Madisen — professional cleaner, bread enthusiast, and firm believer that everyone deserves a clean home without a side of judgment.\n\nLife gets messy. Kids happen. Depression happens. ADHD happens. Work gets crazy. Sometimes your laundry pile develops its own ecosystem. I’ve seen it all, and I promise I’ve never walked into a home thinking, “Wow, I can’t believe this.” Usually I’m thinking, “Challenge accepted.”\n\nMy goal is simple: make your home feel lighter, fresher, and more peaceful while making you laugh at least once along the way.\n\nI’m the kind of cleaner who will scrub your baseboards like they personally offended me, celebrate finding the floor again under the toy avalanche, and possibly show up with homemade bread for your first cleaning because that’s just the kind of chaos I’m bringing to the business.\n\nThis is a judgment-free zone. Whether your house is spotless and you just need an extra set of hands, or you’re one unfolded laundry basket away from filing a missing

"I hired Fireplace Chimney Sweep Solutions to clean and inspect the chimney in my 54 year old home. He found numerous areas in the chimney and fireplace that were deteriorating with age. AfterSed Bledsoe showed me the problem areas and explained the potential dangers, I gave him the go-ahead to make the repairs. He and his crew did an excellent job, cleaned everything up afterward, and possibly saved me from a house fire. Very well satisfied."

"They stuck to their schedule and performed the work in a timely manner. Very professional and knowledgeable. They listened to what I had to say about what the problem was and they included a warranty so they may come back if there are any issues. They did a good job! As for the quality of service and value for my money, these questions cannot be answered until the chimney has gone through a period of heavy rain to see if the leak has been stopped. Therefore, that rating is provisional, since I have no reason to think the quality is not good but I have to reserve my answer until we have extensive rain. Overall, they impressed me as being a very professional and competent company."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

One of the best ways to know your chimney is good to go on any given night is to simply look up into your flue with a flashlight. If you see a thick buildup of creosote—a shiny, dark substance that looks like tar—it’s best to have your fireplace professionally cleaned before you go ahead with the burn. Additionally, having your fireplace professionally inspected once per year can also help increase your peace of mind and keep your family and your home safe.

A fireplace can increase a home's value by as much as 12%, with some reports indicating that homes with fireplaces list for around 13% more than the median sale price. Fireplaces are both functional and aesthetically pleasing, adding a charm that many homebuyers find desirable. The actual return on investment depends on the fireplace's size, type, and material.

However, a fireplace can detract from a property's value if it is unusable, not up to code, or in need of immediate repairs. The type of fireplace also matters; custom electric fireplaces and inserts can add value, while freestanding units that can be removed have less impact.

A liter of bioethanol costs $11 and burns for around four hours, making it cost around $2.75 per hour to keep your bioethanol fireplace running. For comparison, natural gas costs around $0.50 per hour, and propane costs around $1.60 per hour. 

How much it costs you to run your bioethanol fireplace largely depends on how often you use it. Hypothetically speaking, if you run your fireplace for four hours a week year-round, you’ll go through one liter of biofuel per week or about $570 per year to run the fireplace.

You can build a fireplace on an existing house, but it’s much easier to construct a masonry fireplace when building a new house. To add to an existing house, you’ll need to build a chimney and ensure the foundation can support a true masonry fireplace. Alternatively, you can purchase a gas or electric fireplace insert, which isn’t as complicated to add to an existing structure.

Some homes with wood-burning fireplaces don't have ash pits due to design choices, construction practices, or the age of the house. Many older abodes don't have them because ash pits weren't a standard feature when they were built. Additionally, in smaller homes or homes with less frequent fireplace use, builders might have opted to forgo an ash pit to reduce costs or simplify maintenance.
