About SparkClean Chimneys

We sweep, clean, inspect and repair chimneys in Mundelein and the Lake County towns around it, and we start every job by looking at what is in the flue.

The part of the house that carries the smoke

Every chimney does the same quiet job: it takes smoke and heat out of the house and keeps the weather out. Soot, creosote, nests and water all work against it, and most of it happens where nobody looks, inside the flue and on top of the roof.

SparkClean Chimneys works on both ends. We sweep and clean the flue, inspect it with a camera when a closer look is needed, and repair the crown, cap, mortar and liner when they have failed. When nothing is wrong, we say so.

The office takes calls from 7 AM to 9 PM every day, at (847) 380-9496, and the form on this site takes requests at any hour.

How we work

What to expect from us

Every visit goes in the same order, so you know what comes next.

  1. We listen first

    You tell us what you noticed: the smell, the draft, the last fire that smoked. We start from there.

  2. We look before we brush

    A look in the flue shows what is really there, and whether a sweep, a cleaning or a repair fits.

  3. We protect the room

    Cloths go down at the hearth and the dust is vacuumed, so the soot stays in the chimney.

  4. We say what we found

    You hear what we saw, what we did and what, if anything, is worth doing next.
