Founded on American ingenuity, Stanley Steemer began as a one-man carpet cleaning business by Jack A. Bates in 1947. Flash forward today, we remain a family-owned business led by the third generation. We’ve proudly expanded across 49 states into a network of nearly 300 locally owned and operated franchises and company-owned locations. Powered by our U.S.-manufactured equipment and technicians trained in-house, we continue to grow through constant innovation and dedication. Discover how our iconic yellow van, catchy jingle, and story grew to be over the last 70 years and counting.
"The employees were friendly. However when calling for air duct cleaning I was told 950.00 and it would take 3-5 hours.. I did inquire how they could charge the same for 3-5 hours .. I was told some take longer. I left it at that.. Stupidly.. I watched them bring in a large vacum and watched 1 person with a wet dry vac on each vent by hand followed by the other guy with the long hose with a very worn very bare brush. In 2 hours they were done. I did ask to see the dirt and maybe was a total of 2 cups . not much for a 50 year old house. The grate on the unit is bent a lot and I don't believe the fan on the unit was cleaned.. I feel very cheated"

"Chimney USA was absolut easy to deal with, on time with everything they promised, and did a great job. Brett had me an estimate over the phone based on some pictures I sent him within minutes.

Couldn't be happier with Brett and his crew."

Chimney caps are necessary to keep animals, water, and debris from falling into your home. They also control the wind to minimize the risk of a backdraft. If you use your fireplace, a chimney cap is crucial to keep dangerous embers from flying out the top of your chimney.
No, chimney caps do not keep rain out entirely. However, chimney caps minimize rain and ice accumulation inside the chimney, preventing significant water or ice buildup in your home. They must remain partially open to allow exhaust to escape. As such, they do not provide a completely waterproof barrier.
Chimney caps can last three to 25 years or longer, depending on the quality of the material. Galvanized chimney caps tend to have shorter lifespans, but stainless steel, aluminum, and copper caps can last more than 25 years, making them some of the soundest chimney cap investments you can make.
Generally, the top of the chimney cap must be at least five inches above the top of the flue. If you hire a handyperson for your chimney cap installation, they can advise on the size and type of cap to purchase.
Chimney crowns—similar to chimney chase covers—are flat areas directly beneath the chimney cap. The installer reinforces the top of the chimney with mortar or concrete to shed water and provide a protective cover for your chimney, sealing the top. A chimney cap is still necessary to protect the flue against weather and animals.
