Our technicians are fully trained in chimney sweeping, inspections, repairs, and troubleshooting tricky chimney problems. We hold certifications through the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) and the National Fireplace Institute (NFI).

Chimney Sweeping

Chimney sweeping uses specialized scrubbers, brushes, commercial vacuums, and other equipment to address two main issues.

1. Flammable creosote buildups in the flue

Creosote forms when smoke condenses in the chimney. This substance causes most of the reported chimney fires in Deerfield, IL, and the greater Chicago, IL, area each year. It should be removed professionally, ideally once a year.

2. Debris in the flue

Leaves, twigs, small animal nests, and the occasional dead animal all contribute to flue blockages. The result: smoke and deadly carbon monoxide filtering into your home. Chimney sweeping removes debris.
