Frequently asked questions
What is a Level 2 inspection and when do I need one?
A Level 2 adds a full video scan of the flue. It's required when buying or selling a home, after a chimney fire, or after any major weather event.
How fast can you get here?
Most Wheaton appointments are available within a few days, and often same-week even in peak fall season.
My chimney leaks when it rains. Can you fix it?
Yes — most leaks come from a cracked crown, missing cap, or failed flashing. We diagnose the true source and fix it, not just symptoms.
How often should a chimney be swept?
The NFPA recommends an inspection every year and a sweep whenever creosote reaches 1/8 inch. If you burn regularly in Wheaton winters, that's typically once a year.
Do repairs come with a warranty?
Yes — masonry and cap work carries a workmanship guarantee, and waterproofing treatments include a 10-year material warranty.
Will sweeping make a mess in my house?
No. We lay drop cloths, seal the fireplace opening, and run HEPA vacuums the entire time — your hearth stays spotless.
Do you work on gas fireplaces too?
We inspect and service the venting on gas units as well — flue checks, cap work, and draft problems included.
Are you licensed and insured?
Fully. We carry liability insurance, and every technician is certified and background-checked.
Do you provide free estimates?
Yes — repair estimates are free and written, with photos of what we found and the final price quoted before any work begins.
One visit and your fireplace is swept, inspected, and safe to light.
