Two Decades of Lincoln Chimneys

We’ve been working on Lincoln chimneys since 2000. Same team, same commitment to doing the job right. Our company was formally established in 2016, but our experience goes back over two decades.

Every one of our technicians carries CSI certification from the Chimney Safety Institute of America. That’s not just letters after their name – it’s proof we know current safety standards and proper techniques. You’ll find this certification listed on our website under “Meet the Team.”

This isn’t a side business or seasonal operation. We run a retail stove store and offer in-house financing because chimney and fireplace work is what we do, full-time, year-round.

Chimney Cleaning Process Lincoln

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we protect your home. Drop cloths, plastic sheeting, proper containment. You shouldn’t have to spend your weekend cleaning up after a chimney sweep.

Then comes the actual sweeping. We use professional brushes and vacuum systems to remove creosote, soot, and debris from your flue. We work from both the top and bottom to ensure complete cleaning. No shortcuts, no “good enough” approach.

During the process, we’re also inspecting. Looking for damage, blockages, or safety issues that need attention. If something needs repair, you’ll know about it with clear explanation and upfront pricing.

The job’s not done until your chimney is clean, your home is clean, and you understand exactly what was found and what was done.

How often should I have my chimney swept in Lincoln?

Most Lincoln homeowners need chimney sweeping once a year if you use your fireplace regularly during heating season. If you burn more than a cord of wood annually, you might need it twice. The Chimney Safety Institute recommends annual cleaning and inspection for active fireplaces. However, usage patterns matter more than calendar dates. A fireplace used every weekend through winter needs more attention than one lit occasionally. Gas fireplaces need less frequent cleaning but still require annual inspection for proper venting and safety components.
Chimney sweeping costs in Lincoln typically range from $150-$300 depending on your chimney’s condition, height, and accessibility. Multiple flues, heavy creosote buildup, or difficult roof access can affect pricing. We provide free estimates because every chimney is different. You’ll know the exact cost before any work begins. We maintain flexible pricing for reasonable customers rather than rigid one-size-fits-all rates. Remember, the cheapest option often means corners get cut on safety or thoroughness.
White staining on your chimney exterior, strong odors from the fireplace when not in use, or animals/birds in the chimney are clear signs you need cleaning. Rust on the damper or firebox, damaged chimney crown, or poor draft when burning fires also indicate problems. However, creosote buildup isn’t always visible from inside your home. That’s why annual inspection matters even if everything seems fine. Our CSI-certified technicians can spot early warning signs that homeowners typically miss, preventing bigger problems down the road.
Professional chimney sweeping shouldn’t create mess in your home when done properly. We use drop cloths, plastic sheeting, and professional vacuum systems to contain debris and soot. Our team protects your furniture, flooring, and belongings before starting work. Modern chimney sweeping techniques are far cleaner than old methods. However, some dust is inevitable when working with soot and creosote. The difference is whether your technician takes proper precautions or rushes through without protecting your home.
DIY chimney cleaning is possible but not recommended for several reasons. First, you need proper equipment – professional brushes, extension rods, and industrial vacuums. Second, roof work is dangerous, especially on Lincoln’s older homes with steep pitches. Most importantly, cleaning without inspection misses safety issues that could threaten your family. Our CSI-certified technicians are trained to spot structural problems, improper installations, and code violations. The money saved on DIY cleaning often gets spent fixing problems that proper inspection would have caught early.
Gas fireplaces need less frequent cleaning than wood-burning units but still require annual inspection and occasional cleaning. Gas burns cleaner than wood, but debris, bird nests, or damaged venting can create dangerous situations. Carbon monoxide poisoning from blocked gas fireplace vents is a serious risk. The venting system needs checking for proper operation, and the fireplace components require safety inspection. Many Lincoln homeowners assume gas means maintenance-free, but that’s not accurate. Annual professional inspection ensures your gas fireplace operates safely and efficiently.
