In Chicago, a common first sign of a dirty chimney is a smoky smell that lingers longer than usual. When a licensed, insured pro arrives, they start by laying down drop cloths. They use specialized brushes attached to flexible rods to scrub the inside of your chimney flue. This removes creosote, a flammable residue that builds up over time. Next, they clean the smoke chamber and smoke shelf, areas prone to soot accumulation. They'll inspect the damper to ensure it opens and closes properly. The firebox itself receives a thorough cleaning. This service is vital for preventing chimney fires. It also ensures your fireplace operates safely and efficiently. Pros check for any structural damage to the chimney. This attention to detail is standard practice. Call now for a free estimate.

What affects the price

Cleaning costs depend on a few specific things regarding your fireplace setup. We look at the total height of the chimney, the number of flues, and how much creosote buildup has accumulated over time. If your chimney has been neglected for several seasons, or if there are blockages like animal nests or heavy debris, the labor required increases. The type of liner and the fireplace architecture also play a role in the complexity of the service. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
