About this service

We connect Florida homeowners with licensed local chimney companys. We do not carry out the work ourselves.

What we actually do

Tell us what is happening and we put you in touch with a chimney company covering your area in Florida. They contact you to discuss it and arrange a visit. What they charge to attend or diagnose is theirs to set, so agree it with them before they come out.

There is no obligation attached to any of it, and nothing to pay us at any point. Ask for the diagnosis in writing before you authorize work, and for repair and replacement to be quoted side by side where a system is near the end of its life. Both are reasonable requests that any established firm will meet.

How we are paid

Contractors pay us for the introduction. You never do. That arrangement is worth stating plainly because it shapes what this site is: we are paid when a homeowner and a contractor start talking, not when work is sold, so there is nothing here pushing you toward a replacement you do not need.

It also means we are not neutral about everything. We are a commercial service, not a consumer advice charity, and the guidance on this site should be read alongside a second opinion on anything expensive.

What license covers the work in Florida

Florida licenses contractors through the Department of Business and Professional Regulation and through county boards, and which license applies depends on the work. Dryer vent cleaning is generally unlicensed; structural or stucco repair, gas appliance work and roofing-adjacent flashing work are not. The state publishes a free license search — ask which license covers what they are proposing and check it. CSIA certification is the recognized credential for chimney and venting work specifically.
