Chimney sweep
in Brandywine, CO.
Brandywine sits in ZIP 80020, 21,607 homes, and it is modern stock: median build year 1990, only 1% predating 1940. Most fireplaces here are factory-built units inside framed chases, where there is no masonry to repair and the failure point is the chase cover, the flashing and the cap.

The three jobs Brandywine calls us for
01
Chase cover rust and a leaking cap
Factory-built fireplaces sit in framed chases topped with a sheet-metal cover. The cover rusts through at its seams before anything else fails, and the water it lets in reaches the firebox and the framing around it.
02
Flashing where the chase meets the roof
The joint between a framed chase and the roof deck moves with every temperature swing. Sealant applied over the top of an old failure buys a season; the joint has to be reworked to actually stop.
03
Spalling brick after the freeze cycle
142 freeze-thaw cycles a year is enough to lift the face off saturated brick. Once a face pops, the exposed core absorbs faster than the face did, so the damage accelerates rather than settling. That is why a spalled stack is worth looking at in the same season it appears.

Your request goes to a screened local company that covers your ZIP code.
They look at the chimney and put the price in writing before starting anything.
You approve the number, or you don't. Either way the visit costs you nothing to arrange.
What you get
The price before the work
A written estimate first, every time. Nothing starts until you have said yes to the number.
You see the reason, not just the price
Anything a pro says needs doing, they show you first: on camera where the job calls for a level 2 scan, in front of you where it does not.
Somewhere to go if it goes wrong
Tell us and it gets recorded and acted on. A company that fails the standard loses its place in the network, and that is a lever we actually hold.
Every company in the network is checked for license and insurance before it joins, and checked again if a complaint comes in. It is a check on the business, not a guarantee about the person who knocks, so ask to see both before work starts.
Rather type than talk? Start it here.
A screened local pro takes it from there, with the price in writing before any work. Four fields, and the Brandywine pro who covers your ZIP calls you back; you never wait on hold to ask a question.

Homeowners on VIO
Homeowners on VIO CHIMNEY
Courteous from the first call to the walkthrough
“Everyone we dealt with was on time and respectful of the house — shoe covers, drop cloths, the whole routine. The technician explained everything in plain English and never tried to sell us something we didn't need. We've already recommended VIO to two neighbors.”
Susan K. Verified
Dryer works like new again
“Our dryer had been taking two cycles for a single load. The technician pulled a startling amount of lint out of the vent run and showed me the airflow difference afterward. Only wish I could have gotten a slot a bit sooner — the work itself was great.”
Derek B. Verified
Straight answers, zero upsell
“I filled out the request form expecting phone tag and got a real appointment window instead. The inspector was patient with all of my questions and left us a simple list of what was fine and what wasn't. Refreshingly straightforward from start to finish.”
Angela P. Verified
Storm-damaged cap replaced without the runaround
“A windstorm knocked our old chimney cap loose and birds had started taking an interest. the company they matched us with fitted a screened stainless cap and pointed out some early crown wear to keep an eye on — with zero pressure to do anything else on the spot.”
Beth C. Verified
Franklin, TN
Thorough, tidy, and honest
“Took a little back-and-forth to land a time that worked, but the visit itself was excellent. The technician showed me the creosote on camera before cleaning and again after, and left zero dust behind. The fireplace draws noticeably better now.”
Travis H. Verified

The inspection our home purchase needed
“We scheduled a Level 2 inspection before closing on a house in Westlake. The camera scan came with a written report in plain English that we handed straight to our agent. No scare tactics — just a clear list of what needed attention and what didn't.”
