We utilize current industry technology for unsurpassed service while still maintaining the best price to product / service ratio. Rest assured and enjoy your Superior Chimney!... Superior Chimney is a family owned and operated chimney sweep and masonry chimney restoration company. Our family recognized the demand for a service overhaul in an industry shadowed by skepticism as a result of it being primarily commission/incentive based for its technicians. We are proud to be a service company, not a sales company! It is our commitment to maintain safe use of all chimney types in all of Chicagoland while exceeding your expected level of service. Our fleet of trucks service all six Chicagoland counties, year round, in effort to minimize chimney fire statistics.
"GREAT! They communicated with us frequently to update us on the service and arrival. Chris and his assistant arrived and went quickly about the work. Very personable and experienced. Cleaning the fireplace was $125. Putting in a metal insert to protect the wall that had cracks- about $260. Installing a new steel chimney cap on furnace chimney about $260. Explained before all parts of the jobs before doing them. Gave options of other things that could be done and why, no pressure."

"I'm a guy who does my research before making a decision on who to trust to do work for us. You're probably the same since you're reading this review. I can save you a lot of time by suggesting you go with Premier for your job. We had an insurance claim that was covering the replacement of our old aluminum siding. We were also in need of new windows. We decided we'd bite the bullet and have all the windows done, as well as the siding. This was going to be a big job and I wanted to find a single company who could do both of these projects in unison. After doing the research, on both products and companies I might want to do the install, we got a number of quotes. At the end of the day, Steve won us over. Premier had positive reviews, like everyone else we considered. However, at the end of the day, we really liked Steve's approach, knowledge, and customer service. In addition, he's one of the few companies who has an actual brick and mortar location where you can go in and look at products, and discuss your project. Steve took a lot of time with us and answered all the questions we had. He also made some suggestions that helped guide us in the decision making process of things like window type, exterior accessories, etc. Once we signed the contract, Steve gave us an estimated start time. He stayed in touch with us as products came in and also communicated progress of other jobs so we knew when to expect the official start date. His initial estimate was right on. Now, a company is only as good the crew who actually does the install. You can always be won over on the sales end, but it's the skill of the installers that really matter. Peter and Stanley were the gentlemen who Steve had work on our home and we had a very positive experience working with them. They worked with us to navigate some tricky workarounds with our large deck and screened in patio, along with other decisions that had to be made along the way. While they were proactive in asking how we wanted certain things to be done, they were also very patient and helpful when we had questions as the work progressed. Like any large scale project, there are going to be issues to work through. We had some rotten wood in places and also had a piece of Fypon accent that had a little damage when it arrived. I firmly believe that the sign of a great company is how they respond when something needs extra attention or when a customer has a concern. Steve went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied and found solutions for each issue we encountered along the way. Steve is a local small business owner who cares about his customers, is patient, and does great work at a fair price. The crew he assigned us, Peter and Stanley, were on time every day and did great work. What more could you ask for? We are so pleased and proud of our home after the work they did. In addition, we've had many compliments from neighbors, friends, and families. My wife and I, without hesitation, would recommend Steve for window, door, and/or siding project."

Shiplap comes in a variety of price points. The most cost-effective form is plywood, which you can buy in sheets for an average of $30 each. However, shiplap can be a bit more expensive than drywall. If cost is an issue, consider installing shiplap on an accent wall and covering the other three walls with drywall.
In many cases, you may be able to install shiplap over drywall. It’s important to prep the wall before installing shiplap. Typically, contractors locate the wall studs and attach the shiplap boards directly to the existing drywall using construction adhesive or finishing nails. However, pros usually recommend removing the existing drywall to expose the studs for the best results. This allows for a more secure and flush installation.
Both horizontal and vertical shiplap can offer stunning visual appeal, but each type creates a different effect. Horizontal shiplap is the classic choice, traditionally helping rooms feel wider and more expansive, such as in living areas and bedrooms. By comparison, vertical shiplap can create an illusion of added height, making ceilings appear taller for a more dramatic touch. The best choice depends on your room’s architecture, design style, and personal preference.
