Chimney work varies by the height, condition, and access of your chimney, so rather than post a flat rate that may not fit your home, we quote each job accurately for what it actually needs.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a chimney sweep cost?
A chimney sweep’s cost depends mainly on your chimney’s height and access, how much creosote has built up, and the number of flues. Most standard single-flue sweeps are a modest, affordable job. Call (815) 420-6665 and describe your setup for an exact, upfront price.
Why don’t you list fixed prices for every service?
Because chimneys differ. The same service can cost more or less depending on your chimney’s height, condition, access, and whether repairs are needed. Rather than post a misleading flat rate, we give you an accurate, upfront quote for your specific job.
How much is air duct cleaning?
Air duct cleaning starts at $99. The final price depends on the size of your home and system and the condition of the ducts. We give you an honest assessment first — we don’t push cleaning you don’t need.
What affects the cost of chimney repair?
Repair cost depends on the height and access of the chimney, how much masonry is involved, and whether the crown, cap, liner, or flashing also need work. A few feet of tuckpointing is a small job; a full rebuild is a larger one. We quote every repair after we see it.
Do you charge for an estimate or quote?
We give honest, upfront pricing. Some jobs can be quoted over the phone once we understand your system; others need a quick look so we don’t guess. Either way, you get a clear price before any work begins.
Is a cheaper chimney sweep a good deal?
Not always. A very low advertised price can turn into upsells once the technician is at your home, or mean a rushed job. We’d rather give you one fair, upfront price and do the work right — which is cheaper in the long run than a job done twice.
Do you offer any package pricing?
Many homeowners pair a sweep with an inspection, or book chimney and dryer vent work in one visit, which is efficient. Tell us everything you need when you call and we’ll put together the most sensible plan and price.
How do I get an exact price for my job?
Call (815) 420-6665 and tell us what your chimney or venting is doing, its height and fuel type, and anything you’ve noticed. We give honest, upfront pricing based on the work actually needed — no guesswork, no surprises.
