We have had Shawn work on our fireplace since 2010. We were in need of a new lining and some chimney brick work. We found Shawn to be very honest and forthright with the work needed and the safety to run our fireplace through the winter months. We had a gas fireplace, which we wanted to change to wood burning with gas starter. He was able to accomplish that task for us as well. We found his pricing to be very competitive with the market and fair for the work load needing to be done. We purchased our house in 2010 and when it was inspected we were told the fireplace was a fire hazard until the above work was completed by a licensed individual in the industry. Shawn completed all the work necessary to run our fireplace in a safe manner. He was prompt on delivery of service and very professional. We have used Shawn each year since then to do all our chimney sweep needs. He shows up when he says he will, he charges what is quoted, he is clean and efficient in his work performance and we trust his work and his experience in the field. Shawn, in my opinion is a very hard working young man with the skills needed to do a fair, safe, all around great job on any fireplace needs.

Chimney Cap Installations
To defend against rainwater, debris and unwelcome animal guests, Des Moines Chimney Sweep recommends a chimney cap. This device will help prevent rainwater from entering the chimney liner and causing rapid deterioration. Chimney caps also help mitigate the chance of chimney fires because flammable debris like sticks and leaves won't be blown into your chimney during windy Iowa days.
