Professional chimney cleaning starting at $189. NCSG-certified technicians with HD camera inspections and photo-documented reports. Same-week scheduling available. Serving all of Chicago and 100+ suburbs.
Every Widen Chicago chimney cleaning includes a full sweep removing soot, creosote, and debris from your flue liner, smoke chamber, damper, and firebox. Our NCSG-certified technicians use professional-grade brushes, rods, and HEPA-filtered vacuums to leave your home spotless.
Every cleaning includes a complimentary visual inspection with a digital photo report. You see exactly what we see — cracks, deterioration, blockages, and any areas of concern — with written recommendations and no-pressure advice.
Standard chimney cleaning in Chicago starts at $189 for a single flue. Multi-flue homes, heavy creosote buildup, or difficult access (third floor, steep roof) may cost more. We always provide the exact price before starting — never a surprise bill.

Chicago's harsh winters mean heavy fireplace use from October through April. Six months of burning wood or gas creates significant creosote buildup — the #1 cause of chimney fires. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) reports over 25,000 chimney fires annually in the U.S., most of which are preventable with regular cleaning.
Chicago's older housing stock — brick two-flats, bungalows, and pre-war homes — often have aging flue liners and decades of accumulated buildup. Many homes we service in Lincoln Park, Oak Park, Evanston, and Beverly haven't been cleaned in years. Our HD camera inspection catches problems invisible to the naked eye.
