Chimney service for Lombard’s historic and family homes
Lombard’s pride is Lilacia Park — an 8.5-acre horticultural showcase designed by Prairie School landscape architect Jens Jensen, home to the famous Lilac Time festival each May and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The surrounding historic neighborhoods have older homes with original masonry chimneys, while newer sections feature gas and prefab fireplaces.
DuPage freeze-thaw winters are hard on crowns, caps, and flashing, so water intrusion is a frequent problem in Lombard’s older homes. Our annual camera inspection catches that damage early, and we keep your floors spotless on every visit.
