I called for an estimate last November. Kurt (owner) arrived promptly, inspected the chimney and gave several options about what could be done, including total repair, just tuck pointing or doing nothing immediately as the chimney wasn't leaking. The chimney had multiple bricks that had popped off over the years, mortar wearing away. We decided after thinking about the information we were given, to have the entire chimney redone above the roof line. Kurt emailed us an estimate and said if we decided to go with him, the price would be good until spring when weather would allow him to begin work. Once we decided to use Smoke stacks, we signed the estimate, no down payment was required.
We got a call a few days before work was to start this spring to confirm it was ok to go ahead with the work. Crew arrived promptly on the appointed day. They worked in inclement weather, cleaned up all the dust and debris daily and consolidated all their equipment. The work began on a Monday and finished Thursday.
We asked that the smaller chimney be checked while they were here, they repaired some small cracks and put in the smaller liner. The work was excellent. Professional, hard working crew. We would highly recommend this company.
Mike and his assistant were very professional. He explained what they were doing, and took the time to also explain what they found relative to the chimney at the roofline and repairs that will be needed in spring. He also explained what they did for the inspection of the chimney prior to, during, and following the cleaning. He found debris and soot that had not been found on the internal chimney sill by the last company we had come several years ago, including some items we believe were there since the house was built. He explained everything that we were looking at during the scoping of the chimney with a camera, and gave an estimate as to what the repairs would cost.
They were careful to not make a mess, and did a great job cleaning up after themselves. For only $ 140 more than what I paid to get the chimney cleaned six years ago, we also had the chimney scoped and a cap installed on the water heater vent. I would definitely recommend Quality Fireplace and Chimney Service...great job!

The gentleman that came out to do the inspection was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable, and used up to date technology such as drones to give us a great view of our home. After the inspection we received a lengthy detailed inspection summary with pictures! We were very impressed.

He was able to examine and explain all he was doing and what he needed to do to my roof. He completed needed improvements on the same day and told me of the chimney issues. He sent out the chimney man to estimate repairs. It was satisfied with his time and what he could do for me.

FAQs for chimney inspection projects in Franksville, WI
The average cost for a professional chimney cleaning is around $250, but prices range from $130 to $400 or more, depending on a few factors. Some things that have an impact on your total include the size of your chimney, the number of chimneys cleaned, and how accessible the chimneys are.

The National Fire Prevention Agency (NFPA) recommends chimney sweeping once per year as a means of avoiding house fires and massive property damage. Over time, creosote and soot build up in your chimney from burning wood and a lack of ventilation.

Chimney sweeping removes any residue and helps reduce the risk of property damage and personal injury from fire.
