The prices below are starting points for a standard job. Your chimney may need less — or more — so we inspect first, then give you the exact price in writing before any work begins. Estimates are always free.
Chimney Sweep & Cleaning
Complete chimney sweeping that removes soot, creosote and debris — careful preparation, a full brushing of the flue, and a spotless cleanup, so your fireplace is safe to use all winter.
About this service →Chimney Inspection
Detailed chimney inspections — including video scans — that identify creosote buildup, damaged liners, leaks and safety issues before they become expensive or dangerous.
About this service →Level 1 Chimney Inspection
The annual maintenance inspection every working chimney needs — a systematic check of all readily accessible parts of the chimney, flue and appliance, with a clear report on what we found.
About this service →Level 2 Chimney Inspection
The deep inspection — everything in Level 1 plus a full video scan of the flue's interior, documented for real-estate deals, insurance questions and post-incident peace of mind.
About this service →Chimney Repair
Expert chimney repairs and restoration — rebuilding, relining, pointing, crown and flashing repair, waterproofing and leak repair — for homes and businesses across the Twin Cities.
About this service →Chimney Relining
The liner is your chimney's safety core. When clay tiles crack or joints open, we reline with stainless steel systems or resurfacing treatments that restore a sealed, correctly sized flue.
About this service →Chimney Caps
A quality cap is the cheapest insurance a chimney can have — it keeps out rain, snow, leaves and animals while letting smoke escape freely. We fit and install caps sized to your flue.
About this service →Chimney Crown Repair
The crown is your chimney's first line of defense against water. We repair cracked crowns and rebuild failed ones with the slope, overhang and drip edge that shed water the way they should.
About this service →Masonry & Tuckpointing
Mortar is a chimney's sacrificial layer — it's meant to wear so the brick doesn't have to. We repoint failing joints and rebuild damaged masonry with matched materials, so the repair disappears into the chimney.
About this service →Flashing & Leak Repair
Most chimney leaks are born where the chimney meets the roof. We repair and replace step and counter flashing, seal the joint properly, and fix the leak at its source — not with a smear of tar.
About this service →Chimney Leak Detection
Before anyone repairs a chimney leak, someone has to find it. Our leak diagnosis traces water to its real entry point — crown, cap, flashing, masonry or condensation — so the repair you pay for is the repair you need.
About this service →Chimney Waterproofing
Brick drinks water; the right waterproofing stops it without sealing moisture in. We apply breathable, vapor-permeable masonry waterproofing that protects Minnesota chimneys from freeze-thaw damage.
About this service →Chimney Dampers
A damper that won't seal is a hole in your house all winter. We repair throat dampers and install top-sealing dampers that close tight against a gasket — and double as a cap.
About this service →Fireplace Services
Expert fireplace cleaning, inspection, repair and installation — including wood and gas stoves, pellet stoves, inserts and glass doors — for homes and businesses.
About this service →Gas Fireplace Service & Repair
Specialized service for gas fireplaces and gas log sets — burner and pilot cleaning, ignition and thermocouple troubleshooting, and full safety checks for gas leaks and carbon monoxide.
About this service →Dryer Vent Cleaning
A lint-choked dryer vent wastes energy, cooks your dryer and is a genuine fire risk. We clear the full run — from the dryer to the outside cap — and make sure it vents the way it should.
About this service →Chimney Animal Removal
Chimneys make excellent dens — warm, dark and safe from predators, which is the problem. We remove nesting animals and birds humanely, clean out the flue, and cap it so it doesn't happen again.
About this service →Residential Chimney Services
Professional residential chimney services — cleaning, inspections, repairs and maintenance — keeping Saint Paul and Twin Cities homes warm, safe and efficient.
About this service →Commercial Chimney Services
Comprehensive commercial chimney cleaning, inspection, repair and maintenance for businesses, multi-unit buildings and industrial facilities — safety, compliance and performance.
About this service →How Pricing Works
What Changes the Price of Chimney Work
Height & Roof Access
A tall chimney, a steep roof, or a three-story home takes more setup and safety equipment than a single-story rancher.
Flue Type & Number
A single masonry flue, a prefab metal chimney, and a multi-flue stack each take different tools and time — and every added flue adds work.
Creosote & Condition
Light soot sweeps quickly. Glazed creosote, cracked flue tiles, or water damage add treatment and repair time.
Materials
Stainless versus copper caps, liner diameter and insulation, and matching brick or mortar on older homes all change the material cost.
