Chimney Sweep & Repair in Burns, WY
Looking for a chimney company that actually shows up in Burns? Donovan Chimney & Fireplace runs regular routes through Laramie County, handling everything from routine sweeps to emergency repairs — 24 hours a day. Out on the high plains along I-80, Burns homes stand fully exposed to prairie wind, and hardware-anchored caps and storm collars aren't upgrades here — they're the baseline.
Wind, temperature swings, and freeze-thaw stress
In the foothills zone around Burns (5,751 ft), downslope winds gust hard enough to strip loose caps and drive moisture sideways into masonry joints, while big day-night temperature swings put brick and mortar through expansion cycles the plains never match. The chimney problems we see most here are wind-damaged caps and chase covers, eroding mortar on weather-facing sides, and crown cracking from repeated freeze events.
Why Burns Homeowners Choose Us
Our promise to Burns is the same one we made across the Front Range in 1998: honest assessment, matched-quality workmanship, and availability when it matters — including nights, weekends, and the first cold snap of October when everyone needs us at once.
Why Annual Inspections Matter Here
The NFPA recommends every chimney be inspected annually, and in Burns's climate that guidance earns its keep: freeze-thaw damage, wind-stressed caps, and creosote accumulation all develop quietly between burning seasons. An annual inspection catches them as minor line items — the alternative is discovering them as winter emergencies.

Burns Chimney FAQs

Always. Call 720-310-3798 or use the form on this page, and we'll schedule a visit — evenings and weekends included, since we're open 24/7.
Why does my Burns chimney smell in summer?
Humidity activates creosote odor, and summer airflow patterns often push flue air down into the house instead of up and out. A thorough sweep plus damper sealing solves most cases — it's one of our most common warm-season calls in Laramie County.
How much does a chimney sweep cost in Burns?
Most standard sweeps in the Burns area fall in a consistent range that we'll quote precisely by phone — the honest answer depends on flue count, height, and condition. What's always true: the estimate is free, the price is set before work starts, and inspection findings come with photos.
