Our Services

If you own a home in Pekin, Illinois and you’ve started Googling “chimney inspection,” you’re probably worried about creosote buildup, a blocked flue, or a draft that just isn’t pulling right. Those problems can turn a cozy fire into a dangerous flash fire or let smoke crawl back into your living room. A proper inspection will check the interior for creosote layers, sweep out any debris, test the draft, and look for cracks or loose bricks that could fail when the heat spikes. We’ll give you a clear price before we start, usually a flat fee that covers the camera, brush, and a written report. Scheduling is simple—just call (888) 295-7280, pick a time that works for you, and our technician will be at your door ready to make sure your chimney is safe and efficient.
