Chimney Sweep & Repair in Novi, MI

Located about 19 miles northeast of downtown Ann Arbor in Oakland County, Novi is a city of roughly 66,700 residents. Homes here are relatively new — the typical one was built around 1993 — so most fireplaces are factory-built units with metal chimneys, where cap, spark-arrestor, and flashing problems matter more than liner deterioration. Most homes in Novi (about 88%) heat with natural or propane gas, and gas furnaces and water heaters vent through the chimney too — a blocked or deteriorated flue can push carbon monoxide back into the house. At roughly 2,200 residents per square mile, it is one of the denser parts of our service area, where homes often sit close together. We serve Novi together with nearby communities such as Wixom, Northville Township and Farmington.

Michigan winters are long and cold, with many days below freezing — that means heavy freeze-thaw stress on masonry and a longer burning season, which increases creosote buildup for regular wood-burning households.
