What We Do

All Chimney Services

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.

Learn more →

Chimney Inspection

Detailed chimney inspections — including video scans — that identify creosote buildup, damaged liners, leaks and safety issues before they become expensive or dangerous.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

Fireplace Services

Expert fireplace cleaning, inspection, repair and installation — including wood and gas stoves, pellet stoves, inserts and glass doors — for homes and businesses.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

Learn more →

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.

FAQ

Chimney Services — Common Questions

How often should my chimney be inspected and swept?
Every chimney should be inspected once a year — that's the standard fire-safety recommendation, whether you burn nightly or only on holidays. Sweeping is done when the inspection shows creosote and soot buildup that needs removing; for most Twin Cities wood-burning households that's about once a year. Book your chimney inspection and we'll tell you honestly whether a sweep is due.
Do you really offer free estimates?
Yes — our estimates are free and no-obligation. We look at your chimney, explain what it needs and what it doesn't, and give you a clear price before any work begins. Call or text us at (651) 565-6129 to arrange yours.
What does a chimney sweep include?
Preparation and a visual inspection first, then debris removal, a full brushing of the flue, extra attention to trouble areas, and cleaning of the smoke shelf and damper. We finish with a post-cleaning inspection — including your chimney cap — a complete vacuum cleanup, and a summary of what we found. See our Chimney Sweep & Cleaning page for the full process.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Eagle Chimney MN is licensed and insured, with 20 years of experience serving Saint Paul and the Twin Cities metro.
Which areas do you serve?
We're based in Saint Paul and serve the Twin Cities metro — Minneapolis, Roseville, Maplewood, Woodbury, Eagan, Bloomington and 75 more communities. See all of our Minnesota service areas.
How fast can you respond to a chimney emergency?
Our line is answered 24/7 across the Twin Cities — chimney fire aftermath, a flue blocked solid, smoke in the house or storm damage all get a real response, day or night. One exception that matters: if a fire is burning right now or a carbon monoxide alarm is sounding, get everyone out and call 911 first. Then call us at (651) 565-6129.
Do your inspections follow national standards?
Yes. Our Level 1 and Level 2 inspections follow the framework of NFPA 211, the national standard for chimneys, fireplaces, vents and solid-fuel appliances. Level 1 is the annual baseline for a chimney that hasn't changed; Level 2 adds a full video scan of the flue interior and is the right call for home sales, after incidents, and before relining. See the Level 1 and Level 2 pages for exactly what each covers.
What does a chimney sweep cost?
It depends on the appliance — an open fireplace, an insert or a stove — on how many flues we're sweeping, how much creosote has built up (glazed, third-stage creosote takes extra work), and how the chimney is accessed. What we promise instead of a teaser price: the estimate is free, the quote is written and upfront, and no work begins without your approval.
Do you document your work?
Yes — every job is photo-documented. We photograph the condition we find and the work we do — flue, crown, cap, masonry — so you can see the state of your chimney without climbing onto the roof, and keep the record for your files, a future home sale or an insurance question.
Do you service commercial properties?
Yes. Alongside our residential work we clean, inspect, repair and maintain chimneys for businesses, multi-unit buildings and industrial facilities across the metro, including stacks, boiler flues and code-violation corrections. See our commercial services page.
