Why we charge $69 when everyone else says free

A free estimate is a sales visit. It gets paid for somewhere else on the invoice, and the person doing it has a reason to find work.

We charge $69 so the technician is paid to look carefully and tell you the truth — including that nothing needs doing. Book any repair off the report and the $69 comes straight off the invoice. If your chimney is fine, you still keep a written report with photos, which is worth having when you sell.

  • Full inspection of everything accessible, top to bottom
  • Written report with photographs of anything we flag
  • Straight answer on what is urgent, what can wait, what is cosmetic
  • $69 credited back in full against any repair you book

What we do

Chimney Sweep

A chimney sweep removes the creosote, soot and debris that build up inside your flue during the burning season, restoring draft and removing the fuel source for a chimney fire.

Chimney Inspection

A chimney inspection is a documented condition assessment of the flue, liner, firebox, crown, cap and flashing, delivered as a written report with photographs rather than a verbal opinion.

Chimney Repair

Chimney repair covers the masonry itself — repointing failed mortar joints, replacing spalled brick, rebuilding a cracked crown, and in the worst cases taking the stack down to a sound course and rebuilding it.

Chimney Cap Installation

A chimney cap is a stainless or copper cover with a spark screen that sits over the flue opening, keeping rain, animals and debris out of the chimney while still letting exhaust and draft through.

Chimney Leak Repair

Chimney leak repair means locating the real water entry point — flashing, crown, cap, or porous masonry — and fixing that, rather than sealing the ceiling stain and hoping.

Gas Fireplace Repair

Gas fireplace repair covers the ignition and gas train — pilot assemblies, thermocouples and thermopiles, ignition modules, gas valves, blowers and door glass — on direct-vent, B-vent and vent-free units.

Gas Fireplace Inspection

A gas fireplace inspection verifies that the appliance is burning correctly and venting completely — gas pressure, burner flame pattern, vent integrity and a carbon monoxide spillage test — documented in writing.

Our own work

Every photograph on this site is a job we did. No stock photography, no borrowed before-and-afters.

Before

Kansas City chimney with spalled brick faces, eroded mortar joints and white efflorescence below a cracked concrete crown
Freeze-thaw damage: brick faces shedding and joints washed out, with the crown cracked through.

After

The same Kansas City chimney after repointing, with a newly poured concrete crown and two stainless steel caps installed
Same chimney: joints repointed, new crown poured with an overhang, two stainless caps fitted.

Before

Interior of a sooted, corbelled brick smoke chamber before parging, with heavy creosote deposits on rough brickwork
Smoke chamber before: raw corbelled brick, heavy deposits, every ledge catching creosote.

After

The same smoke chamber after parging, showing a smooth sealed surface that improves draft and reduces creosote buildup
After parging: smooth, sealed, and far harder for creosote to grip.

Your chimney depends on when your house was built

The Kansas City metro splits almost perfectly down the state line, and it changes the job completely.

Clay flue tile did not become standard practice in Kansas City construction until after the Second World War — liners were not code-required until 1927, and enforcement lagged into the 1940s. So a pre-1920 home in the Northeast or Hyde Park may have no flue liner at all, and the ones that do were often corroded from the inside by decades of sulphur-rich coal and oil exhaust.

Cross into Johnson County and it inverts. Overland Park’s median home was built in 1989, and fewer than 2% of its houses predate 1940. Most of what we service there is not masonry at all — it is a factory-built metal chimney inside a wood-framed chase, and it fails by the galvanised chase cover rusting through from the underside, where condensate collects.

Two completely different trades, twenty minutes apart. Pick your city and we will tell you what we actually find there.
