Local know-how
Cincinnati winters swing above and below freezing again and again. Water in the brick and crown freezes, expands and opens the cracks a little wider every time.
Fireplaces and stoves here run from October to April, so creosote builds faster than in milder places. A yearly sweep keeps it in check.
Many neighborhoods here have brick homes from before the war. Mortar that old wears out joint by joint; repointing in time keeps the bricks themselves sound.

Who we are
VIO CHIMNEY started in 2019 with one idea: looking after a chimney should be easy to book, honest about price, and done right the first time. We've spent every year since on chimneys and nothing else: sweeps, inspections, leaks and repairs, and the local know-how each place needs.
Reviews
“The whole process was really easy from start to finish. They showed up when they said they would, explained what they found, and didn't try to push anything I didn't need. The technician was friendly, professional, and left everything clean afterward. I'd definitely call them again.”

A call is fastest. Booking online takes about a minute.
It's the national fire-safety standard for chimneys and fireplaces. It calls for a chimney inspection every year, whether or not you think anything is wrong.
Yes. It tells you the condition of the firebox, damper, flue, crown, cap and flashing before closing. If the sale calls for a full camera inspection of the flue, that is a separate job, quoted in writing first.
Next-day appointments are available when you call or book today. Urgent jobs are called back first.
Yes, for a limited time. No cost and no obligation to book any repair.
The firebox, damper, flue, crown, cap and flashing. Anything that needs attention is shown to you, and any repair is quoted in writing first.
If you use the fireplace, a sweep: it includes a safety check while the flue is open. Buying or selling a home, or something looks wrong? Ask for an inspection.
Yes. Leaks, flashing, cracked crowns, caps, animals and crumbling masonry. You get the price in writing before any repair starts.
It shouldn't. The room is covered and a filtered vacuum runs at the firebox the whole time. If it isn't left the way it was found, tell us.
Yes. Pick a day and an arrival window when you book online, or leave it and we'll find a time on the call.
No. Booking is free, and nothing is owed for asking.
Call us. If there's smoke in the room or a carbon monoxide alarm, get everyone outside and call 911 first.
