Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.
Chimney Company in Northglenn, CO
Chimney repair in Northglenn usually starts with the same finding: a flue built for a gas fire or a light wood fire that has spent decades handling real winter burn seasons. Most of the city went up as tract housing between 1955 and 1975, so the masonry fireplaces and clay-tile liners in those homes are now at or past their expected service life. Freeze-thaw cycles and heavy fireplace use push creosote into old joints, and downslope winds off the Front Range push smoke back down flues that were never designed for them. We handle sweeping, repair, and relining ourselves, with professional-grade materials, so a problem found during a sweep gets fixed. Call (833) 749-6226 to book.
Why Northglenn Homes Are Different
Northglenn’s chimney trade is shaped by its own housing stock. The bulk of the city was built between 1955 and 1975 as single-story ranches and split-levels, many with original masonry fireplaces and clay-tile flues, and some with early prefab metal fireplaces added during the 1970s and 1980s. Those clay tiles crack from decades of thermal cycling – intense fires on cold nights, then a fast cool-down – and the original damper assemblies from that era seize shut after long stretches of disuse.
Then there’s the geography. Northglenn sits in the South Platte Valley, where temperature inversions and winter particulate pollution are a regional concern. That turns a routine sweep into something more: we help homeowners understand how to burn without sending visible smoke into a valley that already traps it on no-burn days. Cold, snowy winters and repeated freeze-thaw cycles build creosote faster than a mild climate would, and strong downslope winds cause downdrafts that drive smoke back into living rooms. In practice, we recommend annual sweeping and a draft check on these older Northglenn homes. Our technicians have up to 15 years of experience, and that time tends to be spent on exactly this kind of mid-century housing.

Our Main Northglenn Services
Two jobs bring most Northglenn homeowners to us, and they share a single purpose: keeping fire where it belongs.
Chimney Sweep in Northglenn
A sweep here means more than running a brush down a flue. Because so much of Northglenn’s housing dates from 1955 to 1975, we check clay-tile liners for cracks from thermal cycling, test the damper to see whether it still moves, and look at creosote depth in stages. Heavy winter fireplace use builds creosote faster in a cold, snowy climate, and a valley that traps smoke makes what you burn matter. The sweep finishes with a camera look at the flue and a report you can see. If you want the full detail, see Chimney Sweep in Northglenn.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Northglenn
Lint packed into an old vent line is one of the leading causes of house fires, and Northglenn’s split-levels and ranches often hide long, elbow-heavy dryer runs that look fine from the laundry room. We pull the lint out, check the full path, and confirm the vent actually exhausts outdoors rather than into a wall cavity. It belongs in the same visit as a chimney sweep because both serve the same goal: catching a fire risk before it has a chance. The details live on Dryer Vent Cleaning in Northglenn.
Chimney Repair in Northglenn
Chimney repair in Northglenn tends to arrive on a schedule set by the housing. Homes built between 1955 and 1975 carry clay-tile flues that have cycled through decades of intense winter fires, and many now show cracked tiles, seized dampers, and crowns that have split through repeated freeze-thaw. We fix those problems ourselves, with HeatShield resurfacing and DuraFlex flexible liner systems, rather than handing you a report and a phone number. Our Chimney Repair work covers the whole flue, crown to firebox.
Chimney Cap Installation
Signs you need it
You have an open flue with no cap, or you’ve noticed birds, squirrels, or rainwater getting into the firebox.
What it costs in Northglenn
A chimney cap typically runs $150 to $450 installed, depending on the material and whether the crown needs work before the cap sits properly.
How we do it
We measure the flue opening, choose a cap sized for it, mount it with proper clearances so it drafts correctly, and seal the base against water.
Chimney Liner Installation
Signs you need it
Clay tiles are cracked, missing, or spalling, or you’re seeing pieces of tile in the firebox after a burn.
What it costs in Northglenn
A liner installation typically runs $2,500 to $6,000, with an insulated stainless system at the higher end and HeatShield resurfacing as a lower-cost option when the existing flue can be saved.
How we do it
We camera the flue first, then decide between HeatShield resurfacing and a DuraFlex flexible liner, install the chosen system with insulation, and verify draft and clearances before we leave.
What Chimney Repair Costs in Northglenn
These are typical estimates, not quotes. The written estimate you get after the camera inspection sets the final price.
| Item | Typical range in Northglenn |
|---|---|
| Chimney cap installed | $150 – $450 |
| Flashing repair | $200 – $600 |
| Liner installation | $2,500 – $6,000 |
Do Northglenn chimney repairs need a permit?
Most liner and structural repairs do require a permit, so we check with the City of Northglenn before work begins and factor that into the estimate. A camera inspection and photo report come first, so you can see the evidence.
Can you repair a chimney on a 1960s Northglenn ranch?
Yes, and those homes are most of what we work on here. The clay tiles are often cracked from thermal cycling and the original dampers stiff from disuse. HeatShield resurfacing can restore many of those flues without a full replacement. Call (833) 749-6226.
Brands We Service in Northglenn
We install and work with Gelco, Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield, plus DuraFlex liner systems and HeatShield resurfacing. These are professional-grade materials chosen to fit the flue, not whatever is cheapest that week. Because we carry the repair capability in-house, most Northglenn jobs move from inspection to finished work in short order. See our brands for the full line we work with.

Price climbs when a job turns from a simple clean into structural work: cracked crowns, missing tiles, or a flue that has to be relined rather than resurfaced. Northglenn’s mid-century housing pushes more jobs into that territory than newer suburbs would. We give you a flat price before booking, so the number doesn’t move once we’re on the roof.

What Northglenn Customers Say
"Level two inspection before we bought the house. The report was detailed enough to use as a negotiating point and he explained every photo in it."
- Scott Walsh"I'd use them again. Not the cheapest option in Highlands Ranch and the first appointment got pushed by a day, but the work was clean and they stood behind it."
- Todd Ackerman"Liner was cracked in two places. He walked me through the repair options honestly, including the one that was cheaper for him and better for me."
