A clean chimney doesn’t just look good—it protects your home. Technician Art recently performed a full chimney sweep on Greenview Avenue in Des Plaines, helping a local homeowner enjoy a safer and more efficient fireplace.

This particular client called us after noticing excessive smoke backing into the room. Sure enough, creosote buildup was reducing airflow and increasing the fire risk. Technician Art thoroughly cleaned the flue, removed the hazardous buildup, and gave the chimney a clean bill of health.

Chimney Monkey’s team knows how important regular maintenance is. Creosote, a flammable byproduct of burning wood, builds up over time and can cause chimney fires if left unchecked. Our sweeps eliminate these risks and give your home the peace of mind it deserves.

Whether you’re lighting your first fire of the season or wrapping up winter, a chimney sweep is a smart move. If you’re in Des Plaines, let Chimney Monkey keep your fireplace safe and ready.

We proudly serve the following communities: Evanston, Deerfield, Glencoe, Glenview, Highland Park, Kenilworth, Skokie, Lake Bluff, Lake Forest, Northbrook, Northfield, Wilmette, Winnetka, Chicago and nearby towns.
