Serving Addison Homes: Chimney, Fireplace & Dryer Vent Service

Addison homeowners can book us for a routine sweep, a cracked crown, a gas fireplace that won't light or a dryer that takes two cycles to dry a load. Tell us what you're seeing, and the visit is planned around that job.

Chimney services Addison homes can book

The work falls into three groups: the chimney itself, the fireplace or stove it serves, and the vent behind the clothes dryer. Each is handled as its own job, so you book only what your house needs.

The chimney, from flue to crown

This covers sweeping and flue cleaning, creosote and blockage removal, clearing out nests and odors, and the outside of the stack: crowns, brick and mortar, flashing, leaks and waterproofing. If water is getting in or mortar is crumbling, our chimney repair service handles the masonry and flashing work. A missing or rusted top is a common way for rain and animals to get in, and chimney cap installation closes that gap with a cap, screen or spark arrestor.

Fireplaces, inserts and stoves

Wood-burning fireplaces, inserts, wood stoves, prefab units and electric fireplaces can all be cleaned, repaired or replaced. Gas fireplace and gas appliance work is offered too, including servicing, gas logs and new installations. Damaged firebox walls, draft problems, cracked glass and sticking doors are all part of the fireplace side of the work.

Laundry vents

Dryer vents collect lint along their whole run, not just at the trap. We clean, inspect and test airflow, clear blockages, service roof-mounted vents, replace covers, and repair or reroute ducting that is crushed, too long or poorly placed. Commercial and property-manager work is offered for buildings with several units.

Not sure what to book first?

If you have moved into a home with a fireplace you have never used, or something seems off and you can't tell why, an inspection is the sensible first step. Read how chimney inspection works, then request an estimate and describe what you are seeing.

Useful details to have ready when you get in touch

  • What you burn: wood, gas, or nothing yet
  • When the chimney or dryer vent was last cleaned, if you know
  • Any smells, smoke in the room, water stains or sounds in the flue
  • Whether the dryer vent exits through a wall or the roof
  • Photos of the chimney top or damaged areas, if you can take them safely from the ground

Addison chimney & vent questions

Do you work on chimneys in Addison?

Yes. Addison homes can book chimney cleaning, inspections, masonry and leak repairs, liners, caps and rebuilds, along with fireplace and dryer vent work.

Can I book more than one job in the same visit?

Often, yes. Mention everything you want looked at when you get in touch so the visit can be planned for all of it.

What should I book if I'm not sure what the problem is?

An inspection, because it shows what is actually wrong before any cleaning or repair is chosen. Describe the signs you've noticed when you request an estimate.

What should I do if my fireplace smells or smoke comes into the room?

Stop using it and get in touch, since smoke spillage and strong odors can point to a blockage, heavy buildup or a draft problem.
