I am the Chimney Cricket. No other employees. I serve from Wintergreen to Scottsville to Lovingston to Ruckersville and all points in between. I am licensed and insured.

"I called Chimney Cricket to come out and inspect/sweep my chimney since starting a fire in the (masonry) fireplace had always resulted in an unusual amount of smoke coming into the house. They fit me in quickly - that was nice - and he did the sweeping. Fast forward, I started a fire for the first time since the sweeping, and it was still really smoky. I had recently done some drywall work in the ceiling of this room, and still had a hole in the drywall. I observed a significant amount of smoke coming out of the hole (YIKES), so I doused the fire and felt around to make sure there was no interior fire. I also went outside and observed smoke coming through a pinhole mortar joint in the side of the chimney. I called him back to come take a look and find out why he hadn't told me my chimney liner was cracked. He came back - which was good - but assured me that there was no way smoke could be leaking into the house and that it was cycling back in through the attic. I subsequently confirmed that this was not the case, and finally called another chimney company out to have a look. They quickly reported that my liner was in poor shape, and a new steel liner would be necessary. So, bottom line, *DO NOT* use this company to perform an inspection. I would advise care in using him for sweeping, as long as you are very confident your chimney is in good shape. I can't speak to the quality of sweeping, though. I know the price is attractive, but sometimes you get what you pay for."

Chimney Sweep questions, answered by experts

The best way to clean a roof without damaging it is to opt for soft washing, or better yet, leave it to a professional roof cleaner. Soft washing involves a biodegradable cleaning solution being sprayed on the roof and gently rinsed away after it dissolves built-up residue on your shingles. 

One upside of tile roofs is that clay, concrete, and slate tiles require fewer repairs and less care than most other roofing options and are considered low-maintenance materials. Aside from as-needed repairs, annual inspections, and routine gutter cleaning, your tile roof won’t demand any maintenance and can provide 50 to 100 years or more of worry-free protection for your home.

It’s possible that installing solar panels can lead to mold on the roof. The panels themselves are not the issue. Problems caused by improper installation—such as roof leaks and mounts that aren’t sealed properly—can cause mold. Another potential cause of mold is debris accumulation under panels, which can trap moisture. If you live somewhere with extreme snow, rain, or hail, your home could be more prone to mold.

There are several ways to remove snow from your roof: using a snow rake, salting the roof with calcium chloride, using a rope (cautiously), and using heating cables. It’s important to mention that pretty, fluffy, sparkling snow weighs a great deal, and when physically removing snow from a roof, you should be aware of large snow slabs breaking off. These can weigh hundreds of pounds and are a real danger, so be extremely careful anytime you’re doing this type of work.

Vinegar, bleach, chlorine, barley straw, and a bevy of dedicated algaecides can kill algae, which is the easy part. Preventing algae from returning can be a struggle for some homeowners, but keeping the patio well-maintained and clean is a good first step.
