43 years of experience

I have owned and operated Mr. Chimney Sweep for 30 years. I am the owner operator of this business. My wife answers the phone, and I have one full time employee, Michael Snider. We are a complete chimney service provider. I have been certified with the CSIA for 30 years, and a member of the National Chimney Sweep for the same period. I am also a member of the Wisconsin Chimney Specialist Guild. Cost depends on the job. We are professional, clean, punctual, and honest.

"The former sweep retired/sold the business. We had him clean our chimney a few years ago and he was ok. This new gentleman is fantastic, very thorough, very professional. His work was much more than we expected. You could tell he really enjoyed and took pride in his work. Excellent work!"

Chimney Sweep questions, answered by experts

It is not advisable to DIY a roof cleaning job. Cleaning your roof yourself could lead to hazardous falls, scrapes, and even burns, making this a dangerous project. Additionally, using the wrong cleaning solution or cleaning method on your roof could risk damaging it. While some markets offer a DIY roof cleaning kit, these products often speed up the deterioration of your roof.

To ensure that you and your roof are protected, it’s best to leave roof cleaning to a professional with the right chemicals, tools, and equipment to complete the job safely.

To maintain metal roof health, schedule regular inspections, clear debris from gutters, and check for signs of corrosion.

On average, cleaning a roof will take between two to five hours. This timeline depends on the size and slope of your roof and the severity of any stains. Cleaning roof stains can take additional time, especially if there are signs of moss or algae.

In addition, the age of your roof makes an enormous difference in the time it takes to clean it, as older roofs need more gentle care. If you have significant landscaping in your yard by your house, your professional roof cleaner will need additional time to protect it from cleaning chemicals.

It can be dangerous to remove icicles from your roof, so the best option is to treat the underlying issue instead, usually by ensuring proper insulation in your home. If you’re concerned about immediate damage, you can hire a professional to remove the icicles and the snow accumulation on your home to prevent the issue from recurring. Just make sure you use a long-term solution, too, like addressing insulation problems or installing roof heating coils on your roof.
