Willow Chimney and Dryer Vent Cleaning Co provides chimney sweep services in Mukilteo, including creosote removal & chimney cleaning, dryer vent cleaning, chimney inspection & draft testing, and more. Every job is handled by licensed, insured technicians with upfront written pricing, and backed by a workmanship guarantee — free estimates for all of Mukilteo and nearby areas.
Mukilteo’s coastal climate means your chimney works harder than most, especially when you’re burning damp local wood. Our **chimney sweep** service uses rotating brushes and high-pressure air to remove **all three stages of creosote**—tar-like, hard, and even the dangerous crystalline type—so your fireplace stays safe and efficient. We don’t just ‘scrub the top’; we inspect the entire flue for cracks, blockages, or rust from the Puget Sound’s moisture. After cleaning, we’ll show you the creosote we removed (yes, really) and explain what it means for your next burn. Pricing starts at $129 for standard flues, with no hidden ‘add-ons’ for ‘minor repairs’—just the work you need.
Request this service →Did you know the **National Fire Protection Association** ranks dryer vent fires as the #1 cause of home fires? In Mukilteo’s older neighborhoods near the waterfront, long vent runs and moisture buildup make the problem worse. Our **dryer vent cleaning** service includes a full inspection for lint buildup, crushed foil ducting (a common issue in post-1980 homes), and proper airflow testing. We use a high-powered vacuum to suck out **all** lint—no ‘partial cleaning’ that leaves residue behind. For homes with electric dryers, we also check for overheating risks. Pricing is based on vent length (starting at $99 for under 20 feet), and we’ll give you a clear estimate before we start. No ‘surprise’ fees for ‘extra bends’—just a thorough job.
Request this service →That ‘phantom draft’ problem in your Mukilteo home? It’s not your imagination—it’s often a cracked flue, collapsed chimney crown, or even a bird’s nest (yes, they love our area’s chimneys). Our **chimney inspection** includes a **Level 2 inspection** (the gold standard) with a **smoke puff test** to check for leaks, a **thermometer scan** to measure heat loss, and a **moisture check**—critical after our rainy winters. We’ll point out exactly what’s wrong (and what’s fine) so you’re not overpaying for ‘preventative’ work you don’t need. Inspections start at $99, and we’ll email you a detailed report with photos within 24 hours.

Our **wood stove service** includes cleaning the combustion chamber, checking gaskets for leaks, and ensuring your stove’s **emission levels** meet Washington’s strict clean-burn regulations. For fireplaces, we’ll adjust the damper, check the hearth pad for cracks, and even recommend the best wood for your setup (hint: **seasoned local hardwoods** burn cleaner than green wood). We also offer **seasonal tune-ups** ($149) to prep your system for winter—because nothing’s worse than a smoky fireplace on a cold Puget Sound evening. No ‘lifetime service contracts’ here; just honest advice and work.
Request this service →Gas fireplaces and furnaces are convenient, but **carbon monoxide (CO) leaks** are the invisible danger. Mukilteo’s older homes (especially near the downtown area) often have outdated venting systems that don’t handle modern high-efficiency appliances well. Our **CO and gas vent inspection** includes a **digital CO detector test**, a check for proper vent sizing, and a look for rust or blockages in the flue. We’ll also verify your **combustion air supply**—many Mukilteo homes have sealed attics that starve gas appliances of oxygen, leading to incomplete burns and CO risks. Inspections start at $119, and we’ll give you a **written safety report** with next steps if we find issues.
Request this service →Landlords in Mukilteo take note: **Washington state law** requires dryer vents to be inspected if you’re renting out a property. Our **certified dryer vent inspection** includes a **full NFPA-compliant check**, airflow testing, and a **signed report** you can hand to tenants or buyers. Even if you’re not renting, a clean vent adds value—**lint fires cause $300M in damages yearly nationwide**, and insurance companies often deny claims if vents aren’t maintained. We’ll also show you how to **maintain your vent between cleanings** (like using a vent brush or checking for lint traps). Pricing starts at $129 for certification, and we’ll email your report the same day.
