Advanced Preferred Chimney Cleaning started in 1997 with Steve and Gail Crankshaw in Murrieta, California. As time went on and the aging chimneys started needing more repair work, Advanced Chimney Cleaning, Inc. was born. Being second generation sweeps, Eric and Shelby Crankshaw take pride in knowing the surrounding community, their chimneys and dryer vents are cleaner than ever before.
We kept our same enthusiasm for safety and expanded the services we offer to provide a complete chimney experience. Chimney sweeping, repairs, modifications, and dryer vent cleaning procedures and codes have come a long way from the days of the "goose on a rope". Advanced Chimney Cleaning, Inc. recognizes this and constantly work to improve.

Did you know there are more than 18,000 chimney fires each year in the United States? A fireplace can add beauty and warmth to your home, but it requires regular maintenance to prevent dangerous fire hazards.
It is recommended that you have your chimney swept and inspected once a year before the heating season to prevent smoke from reentering your home, a build-up of dangerous carbon monoxide, or a chimney fire that can result from creosote build-up igniting.Our chimney and dryer vent cleaning services will perform a thorough chimney cleaning of your chimney or dryer vent that will leave your home as clean as when we arrived.

A smoking chimney may be caused by several issues besides a dirty flue. An inspection and education from one of our chimney technicians typically finds a solution. According to the National Fire Protection Association Standard 211, all chimneys and fireplaces should be inspected at least once a year to ensure structural integrity and safety.
Having your chimney swept and inspected anunually improves the air quality in your home and also prevents potential hazards such as chimney in-structure fires, creosote build-up, smoke and /or carbon monoxide, cracks and obstructions. Neglecting care of a chimney can restrict the flow of gas, causing smoke to reenter the home or even cause a fire.
We all enjoy having a fire on a cold evening to warm our home and enjoy the atmosphere that only a fireplace can provide. But like all of our appliances, a chimney and fireplace require routine maintenance to keep it operating within building code standards and in an efficient manner.
Advanced Chimney Cleaning offers a wide variety of high-quality fireplace and chimney services to ensure your chimney is within building code standards and operational.Issues are frequently discovered during a routine chimney inspection. If this is the case, our chimney technicians will recommend the appropriate service or replacement and give you an estimate of the cost.

Do you have water leaking in your chimney? Water is one of the fireplace's worst enemies because most chimneys are made from brick which is a porous material held together with mortar which is water soluble. The inside of your chimney is also likely made of metal which is susceptible to rust. Water can compromise your chimney's performance and structural integrity while having the tendency to cause hidden damage.

We have a gas fireplace and it hadn't worked for a little over a year. We would turn on the switch and the flames would turn on for a few seconds and then they would go off. Advanced Chimney did a very thorough inspection, including cleaning everything as well. Plus he gave us very detailed information about what was done, both verbally and with a report sent to our emails. Our fireplace was working again after this inspection. This was a couple weeks ago. Today I smelled gas near the fireplace and thought maybe there was a gas leak. He came out again very quickly today and did another very thorough

This review is a copy of the review I posted to Yelp! I wanted to make sure that this review is posted on Google as well, that is just how great Eric and Shelby are! That Yelp review is below.
What a phenomenal job that Eric and Shelby did! I promise I am not being hyperbolic when I say that they are truly lifesavers!!! Shelby was incredibly knowledgeable and thorough in setting our appointment and explaining the process. She was incredibly helpful and easy to work with, and made sure that the lines of communication were always open. I cannot begin to tell you how warm and friendly she was! In

Advanced Chimney Cleaning was wonderful to work with! The news wasn't great (not their fault), but we're relieved to know what's going on in our fireplace and know our options. Every one was extremely kind and flexible! The digital report at the end was helpful, too! Thank you!

This company is hands down the BEST! Eric came to our home to look at our gas fireplace that hasn’t been working for over a year! Ran a full diagnostic and even showed us how to/where to buy a new part to install to save us some cash from him coming out again. What a guy! His wife is also super sweet and full of information over the phone when scheduling. Highly highly recommend.
