Chimney Cleaning Company Advises Community To Get Repairs Done Promptly

Villa Park, Illinois based Chicagoland Fireplace and Chimney Restoration is encouraging their community to have their chimneys fixed quickly if they notice an issue with its functionality. Since 1996, Chicagoland Fireplace and Chimney Restoration has provided professional fireplace and chimney repair to the Greater Chicago Area and earned a reputation for excellent services.

Vince Saraceno from Chicagoland Fireplace and Chimney Restoration says, “Chimneys are an integral part of your house. They are responsible for safely removing smoke from a house, and as such, if you find that your chimney is damaged and is in need of repair, you need to act very quickly. Damaged chimneys can cause a number of issues, including but not limited to carbon monoxide poisoning, house fires and smoky fireplaces and more. In worst case scenarios, damaged chimneys can even cause fatalities. So, if there are any chimney issues you are facing, you need to hire a professional as soon as you can.”

The company is widely known for providing high class chimney services including chimney repairs. Their chimney repair services are separated into three major categories.

Chimney cap repairs tend to the chimney cap, which is on the top of the chimney and seals the top opening, preventing wetness and loose rainwater from entering, which can cause deterioration. Chicagoland Fireplace and Chimney Restoration explains that if chimney caps are improperly constructed, they can deteriorate over time and become unable to prevent fluid and moisture from entering the chimney. The company can fix chimney caps and provide a lasting solution whether they are made of concrete, brick and mortar or rock.

The company also provides firebox repair services. The firebox is the segment of the chimney system at the bottom in which someone assembles a fire. A well-constructed firebox should be lined with firebrick, a material of refractory ceramic nature. However, over time and with use, firebricks can break or become weakened. As such, fireboxes often need repairs. The company recommends having a comprehensive review of the firebox every five years or so, depending on how frequently the fireplace is used.

The smoke chamber can also fall into disrepair. The smoke chamber, which serves as the support for flue lining, is a problematic part of the chimney because issues with the smoke chamber cannot immediately be diagnosed. While the rest of the chimney looks great, the smoke chamber could be hiding severe issues that can cause fumes or smoke to escape into the house. Chicagoland Fireplace and Chimney Restoration can conduct chimney reviews and fix any smoke chamber issues they uncover.

Chicagoland Fireplace and Chimney Restoration can also provide a number of other chimney repair services. From fixing any minor damages to the hearth or the chimney to fixing draft issues and so on, all are well within the scope of the Chicagoland Fireplace and Chimney Restoration team. Their website has more information about the full range of chimney repair services they are able to provide.

The services provided by the company have earned them a lot of praise from happy homeowners across the region. Jennifer Price writes in their Google review, “Chicagoland Fireplace & Chimney Restoration Co. did extensive work on our fireplace. We had a complete chimney repair and restoration. We also had them replace the fireplace surround. They replaced a log set in another fireplace and inspected the chimney. All in all, it was a positive experience, and we are very happy with the results.”

Gwyneth Nordine also writes, “They were able to get out to clean our 7-unit condo building faster than anticipated, and at a better price then all the other places I called (and were done, including cleaning, inspection and minor on-sight repairs, in 4 hours). The guys were prompt, courteous, professional and thorough. Will definitely be calling them back for next year's sweep.”
