Chimney & Exhaust
4 generations of chimney and exhaust cleaning and inspecting. Chimney cleaning is included with every 60-point inspection.
Chimney Cleaning
Included with every 60-point inspection: soot, creosote, and debris cleared from the flue, and the chimney inspected in the same visit.

Dryer Vent & Dryer Cleaning
Lint cleared from the dryer vent, the outside vent cover, and the dryer itself, so hot, damp air gets out of the house.

Chimney Crown & Flashing Repair
A cracked crown sends rain straight down into the chimney, and failing flashing causes stains on ceilings and walls. We repair or replace both.
Learn more
Chimney Liners & Caps
A sound flue liner protects the masonry from the inside, and a proper cap keeps out rain, debris, and animals. We install and replace both.

Chimney Rebuilds
When damage goes too deep for spot repairs, we rebuild the chimney, partially or fully, with proper materials built for Michigan freeze-thaw.

Signs your chimney needs repair
Cracks, spalling brick, and worn mortar aren't just ugly. They let water in, and water is what takes a chimney apart, especially through a Michigan winter of freezing and thawing.
Call (586) 636-6424Crumbling mortar
Gaps between bricks let moisture in and speed up decay.
Spalling brick
Flaking brick faces mean water damage beneath the surface.
Cracked crown
Cracks in the top slab send rain down into the chimney.
Damaged flashing
Stains on ceilings or walls near the chimney often start here.

What to expect from WOW
Straight answers from the crew that does the work. See all FAQs.
Call (586) 636-6424How long does a chimney inspection take?
A thorough chimney and brick inspection takes about 45 to 90 minutes. We take our time to check the structure, mortar, and flashing so nothing gets missed.
What gets checked during the 60-point inspection?
Chimney cleaning is included. We clean the flue, look at the chimney structure, flue, brick and mortar condition, crown, cap, and flashing, and photograph every issue we find. You get a clear walkthrough of the findings.
Will I get an estimate after the inspection?
Yes. After the inspection we explain what needs repair, what is urgent, what can wait, and what each repair will cost. You know the next steps before we leave, and you decide what to do and when.
How much will my chimney repair cost?
Cost depends on what we find during the inspection, so we don't quote a number over the phone without seeing the chimney. Once we know the scope, we give you a clear estimate before any work begins.
How long does a chimney repair take?
It depends on the scope. A straightforward tuckpointing job might wrap up in a couple of days, while a full rebuild takes longer. The inspection gives you a clear timeline before we start.
Will weather delay my repair?
It can. Mortar needs the right conditions to set and cure, so we don't push a repair when temperature or rain will compromise the work. We schedule around the forecast and keep you posted if a start date shifts.
Do you handle urgent chimney repairs?
When a chimney or brick problem looks serious, we treat it that way. Explain the situation when you call (586) 636-6424 and we'll do what we can to get to you as quickly as possible.
What areas do you serve?
We serve all of Southeast Michigan from our storefront at 101 Church St in Mount Clemens, including Macomb, Oakland, St. Clair, Wayne, and Livingston counties.
Is chimney cleaning included in the inspection?
Yes. Chimney cleaning is included in our 60-point inspection, so your chimney is cleaned and inspected in one visit.
How much does the inspection cost?
The 60-point inspection, with cleaning included, is a paid visit. Call (586) 636-6424 and we'll give you the current price when you book.
Do you do masonry work besides chimneys?
Yes. We're full masonry experts, from minor repairs to major renovations and full installations and rebuilds. Beyond chimneys and exhaust, we work on porches, walls, brick paver patios, walkways, and driveways.
