Wow! Did the weather in the Minneapolis and Saint Paul area take a quick turn or what?!! In honor of fire prevention month and the coldness I am trying my hardest to embrace I can’t help thinking of sitting by a nice warm fire!
Who doesn’t love the sound and smell of a warm crackling fire! While fireplaces sound soothing and add a decorative touch to any room, my favorite function is of course warmth! Can I get a Hallelujah!
Growing up in a tiny house in Minneapolis, I remember our fireplace being the “center” of the house! It always drew anyone who was in the house to that tiny little living room to bask in the warm glow! As Minnesotans, I think we truly appreciate a real wood-fired fireplace or stove.
With that appreciation has to come responsibility. Those majestic heat sources can also lead to dangers no homeowner wants to be faced with. Please remember to annually have your fireplace cleaned by a professional to help prevent smoke or fire damage in your home. Fact – Clean Chimneys don’t catch fire!
Indications of a chimney fire can be:
The Basics Of How A Chimney And Floe Work
The chimney and flue are intended to carry gases from your fireplace, wood stove or furnace safely out of your home. This action allows for healthy, breathable air in a home. It is important, therefore to keep your chimney clean. A dirty chimney can cause a chimney fire, which will damage structures, destroy your home and potentially injure or kill someone.
Chimney fires can be loud and dramatic, or quiet and slow burning. Some homeowners report hearing a low, rumbling sound that resembles a freight train. Others never hear a sound.
Many homeowners are not even aware that they have had a chimney fire. This is scary to me and should be everyone’s main reason for the annual inspection.
Here are the signs that professional chimney sweep looks for:
IF you are buying a new home or have recently purchased a new home with a wood-fired stove or fireplace, you should definitely have it inspected for any of the signs listed above.

Your service was excellent. The young man was thorough and very dedicated to completing the job. He’s a good one. I would recommend your services to anyone who need them.
Your team has been absolutely amazing, professional, sympathetic and wonderful. They took my mess and made it manageable as I shed a few tears, which they also consoled with empathy. At a time when we have floods and tornados city wide you responded within hours. Thank, I am impressed and I have passed the word on to many.
Very good experience……everyone I dealt with through 24 Restore was very professional and very kind.
This note is a note of thanks and appreciation of the services provided…..we could even say our home looks better than before we incurred our water damage…Job well done!

Yes. I appreciated the ability to funnel all activities thru a one-stop shop proved to be very valuable in a disaster project such as ours demo, construction and finish as well as work directly with insurance company. The team has been professional and those on site have been respectful of our home and schedule.

I thought 24 was very professional and timely work.
24Restore was very responsive and did a thorough job plus they cleaned up after themselves.
The job was exceptionally well done. You were recommended to me by Dennis Carlson, a freind and I would definatley refer 24restore to friends and family.
