These specialists meticulously inspect masonry for spalling, mortar joint deterioration, and efflorescence, common issues exacerbated by Chicago's variable climate. They utilize specialized rotary brushes and high-powered vacuums to remove soot, creosote, and blockages, clearing obstructions like bird nests or debris. The process involves a detailed visual examination using high-definition cameras to identify hairline cracks or structural compromises within the flue liner, whether it's clay tile or a stainless steel insert.

What affects the price

The final cost for your chimney service depends on a few specific factors. We look at the total height of the chimney stack, the level of creosote buildup inside the flue, and whether you have a standard masonry fireplace or a prefabricated metal insert. If there are structural blockages like nests or excessive debris that require extra labor, that will also adjust the estimate. We avoid hidden fees, but every setup is unique, so we evaluate the condition of your liner and firebox upon inspection.
