June in Minnesota can change quickly—one minute it is warm and still, and the next a thunderstorm is dropping heavy rain, wind, and hail across your neighborhood.
Summer is the season when homeowners finally tackle long-awaited exterior upgrades—and if you’re planning roofing, siding, or painting, it’s the perfect time to think about your chimney too.
Starting with a chimney inspection allows us to evaluate current conditions and help you plan strategically before winter damage and spring demand collide.

We want you to know a little more about when you should call for chimney repairs for your damper.
You need to have any such problems resolved ASAP if you’re serious about getting your chimney right back on track.
When you’re buying a home that is several decades old, you might assume that it’s in pretty good shape. After all, it’s lasted for this long without any problems, right?
Creosote is a byproduct of regular fireplace use: a tarry, flammable substance that coats the interior of your chimney. It’s very natural and as long as you have your fireplace maintained regularly, you shouldn’t have any problems with it.
It’s not uncommon for chimneys to endure beyond the buildings in which they stand; a solid masonry chimney can survive for over a hundred years with the right care and attention to problems that might develop. If you live in a home with an older chimney, take care to look for repairs that it may need.
In the cold weather we’re currently having, a good fireplace is one of the best features you can have in a home: a cozy central spot that gives you the direct warmth you usually can’t get from a standard home furnace or boiler. However, if the chimney that vents your fireplace has damage, that cozy spot might become hazardous. Although chimneys are built to withstand many stresses, they sometimes need restoration work.
