Chimney Sweep Bros is a chimney company based on LaGrange Road in Orland Park, serving the Southwest Suburbs of Chicago. We sweep, inspect, reline and repair chimneys, service gas fireplaces and clean dryer vents. We have been doing it locally for over five years, we are insured, and we answer the phone seven days a week from 7:00am to 7:00pm on (708) 432-3430.
How we work
The chimney trade has a reputation problem, and it is earned. It is an industry where the customer cannot see the product. You cannot look up your own flue, you have no way to verify that the work was done, and you have no way to judge whether the repair you were sold was necessary. That asymmetry is exactly what makes it easy to overcharge people, and it is the reason a lot of homeowners have learned to be suspicious.
So we work in a way that removes the asymmetry:
- We show you the photographs. If we say a flue tile is cracked, you see the crack. If we say the crown has failed, you see the crown. You should never be asked to take a repair on trust.
- We tell you when the answer is “nothing”. A clean bill of health is a legitimate result of an inspection. Not every visit needs to produce work.
- We tell you when the cheaper fix is the right one. A crown with hairline cracks can often be sealed rather than rebuilt. We would rather do the smaller job and have you call us again next year.
- The price is agreed before the work starts, not discovered afterwards. See our pricing.
- We will tell you what happens if you wait. Some things can wait a season. Some things mean you should not light a fire tonight. You are entitled to know which is which.
Who you will be dealing with
Mark Davis — Lead Chimney Technician
Mark has spent over five years sweeping, inspecting and repairing chimneys across Orland Park, Tinley Park, the Palos communities and the surrounding suburbs. He works across the full range — open wood-burning fireplaces, stove inserts, gas appliances, relining and masonry — and he writes the guides on this site. The intention behind them is straightforward: give homeowners enough understanding to tell a real problem from an upsell, including when the person telling them is us.
If you have had a diagnosis from another company and you want a second opinion on it, that is a completely reasonable thing to ask for, and we are happy to give one.
What we are, and what we are not
We are insured. We are not going to tell you we hold certifications we do not hold. Plenty of companies in this trade decorate their websites with badges and acronyms that do not survive a phone call, and we would rather be straightforward with you: our case is the work, the photographs, and the fact that we will explain our reasoning.
What we do bring is over five years of looking inside chimneys in this specific area — which matters more than it sounds. Housing stock around the Southwest Suburbs has patterns. The freeze-thaw cycle here does predictable things to masonry. Gas conversions done into old oversized flues are common locally, and they cause a specific set of problems. Knowing what usually goes wrong on a 1960s Orland Park ranch is the difference between finding the fault in ten minutes and not finding it at all.
Where we work
We are based on LaGrange Road in Orland Park and cover the Southwest Suburbs: Tinley Park, Orland Hills, Palos Heights, Palos Park, Palos Hills, Homer Glen, Mokena, Oak Forest, Lemont, New Lenox, Frankfort, Oak Lawn, Chicago Ridge, Worth, Alsip and Crestwood. If you are just outside that, call and ask — we will give you a straight answer rather than driving out and adding a travel charge.
Frequently asked questions
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry insurance and we are happy to confirm the details before we start work. We do not claim certifications we do not hold — if a company’s website is covered in badges, it is worth asking them to evidence each one.
How long have you been working on chimneys?
Over five years, all of it in Orland Park and the surrounding Southwest Suburbs. That local concentration matters more than raw years — the housing stock here has recurring patterns, and knowing them is what makes a fault quick to find.
Will you give me a second opinion on another company’s quote?
Yes, and we think you should ask for one on any large chimney job. Relining and rebuilds are expensive, and you have every right to have someone else put a camera up the flue and show you what they see. A genuine defect will still be there when the second person looks.
Do you charge for a quote?
Call us on (708) 432-3430 and we will tell you exactly what a visit costs before we book it. What we will not do is give you a number on the phone for work that genuinely cannot be priced without looking at the chimney, then revise it upward on the day.
What areas do you cover?
Orland Park, Tinley Park, Orland Hills, Palos Heights, Palos Park, Palos Hills, Homer Glen, Mokena, Oak Forest, Lemont, New Lenox, Frankfort, Oak Lawn, Chicago Ridge, Worth, Alsip and Crestwood. If you are on the edge of that, ask.
Are you open on weekends?
Yes. We work seven days a week, 7:00am to 7:00pm. Chimney problems do not restrict themselves to business hours, and neither does the phone.
Do you do the work yourselves or subcontract it?
We do the work ourselves. The person who inspects your chimney is the person who explains the findings to you.
What happens if I am not happy with the work?
Call us and tell us. We would rather come back out and put something right than have you tell the neighbourhood we did not. In a business that runs on local reputation, that is not generosity — it is self-interest.
