Chimney services Schaumburg homeowners can book
We serve Schaumburg, and the work covers the whole venting system of a house, not just the chimney. The work falls into cleaning, checking, fixing or adding something new, and one visit often starts with one of those and points to the next.
- Cleaning: chimney sweeping, creosote removal, clearing blockages, animal and nest removal, odor removal, and cleaning of fireplaces, inserts and wood stoves.
- Checking: visual and camera inspections of the flue, fireplace checks, pre-purchase chimney checks for home buyers, and a look after storm damage.
- Fixing: masonry, crown and tuckpointing work, leaks and flashing, liners, dampers, chase covers, fireboxes, smoke chambers, draft problems and fireplace doors and glass.
- Installing: chimney caps, animal screens, spark arrestors, liners, fireplaces, inserts, gas logs and gas lines.
- Dryer vents: cleaning, lint and blockage removal, airflow testing, roof vent cleaning, repairs, rerouting and new vent covers.
If you aren't sure what is wrong, a chimney inspection is the usual first step, since it shows the condition of the flue before anyone recommends work. When cracked mortar, a loose crown or a leak turns up, our chimney repair service handles the fix. An open flue that lets in rain, birds or squirrels can be closed off with a cap; how chimney cap installation works explains that job.
