Chimney sweep, inspection and repair in Highland Park, IL
Highland Park has a wide range of homes, from older lakeside houses to mid-century builds, and chimneys to match.
Highland Park is a bigger town than its neighbors to the north, with a real range of housing: older houses near the lake, mid-century homes in the neighborhoods farther in, and newer construction in between. That range shows up in the chimneys.
Older Highland Park houses tend to have masonry chimneys with clay flue tiles. Mid-century homes can have simpler, plainer fireplaces that were built to heat a room and have not been touched since. Newer homes sometimes have factory-built fireplaces with a metal flue instead of brick. Each type has its own things to check, so the first question we ask is what kind of chimney you have.
If you are not sure what you have, that is fine. Tell us roughly when the house was built and whether you can see brick on the roof, and we can plan from there.

Questions from Highland Park homeowners
How do I know if my fireplace is masonry or factory-built?
If the chimney above the roof is brick or stone, it is masonry. If it is a metal pipe, it is usually a factory-built system. Tell us and we will confirm on site.

Is a chimney inspection part of a cleaning?
Usually a basic look is part of a cleaning visit. For a deeper look, we offer separate inspections.
