The Importance of Home Maintenance in Blaine
Living in Blaine means experiencing all four seasons to their fullest. Our humid summers and frigid winters can put a strain on our homes, especially fireplaces, chimneys, and dryer vents. At 2nd Generation Chimneys, Inc., we’ve seen firsthand how essential regular maintenance and repair are for Blaine homeowners. Here are some common issues we address:
- Chimney Sweeping and Cleaning: Blaine’s long winters make fireplaces a popular home feature. Over time, creosote buildup can occur, posing a serious fire hazard. Regular chimney sweeping keeps your fireplace safe and efficient, so you can enjoy cozy evenings without worry.
- Chimney Repairs: Minnesota’s freeze-thaw cycles can cause cracks and deterioration in chimney masonry. These issues, if left unaddressed, can lead to water damage and structural instability. Our expert repairs ensure your chimney stays strong through every season.
- Dryer Vent Cleaning: In a busy community like Blaine, where homes are full of activity, dryer vent clogs are a common problem. Lint buildup not only reduces efficiency but also increases the risk of a house fire. Our professional dryer vent cleaning services help protect your family and improve your home’s energy efficiency.
Major Roads and Accessibility
Blaine’s excellent road network makes it easy to get around. Interstate 35W, U.S. Highway 10, and Minnesota State Highway 65 connect us to the Twin Cities and beyond, making Blaine a convenient and desirable place to live. These thoroughfares also make it simple for 2nd Generation Chimneys, Inc. to serve homes across the area efficiently.
A Climate That Shapes Our Homes
Blaine’s climate features cold winters with average January lows around 13°F and warm summers reaching highs of 83°F in July. These extremes can take a toll on chimneys and dryer vents, emphasizing the importance of regular inspections and maintenance. 2nd Generation Chimneys, Inc. is here to help you stay ahead of these challenges.

A chimney company that stands against against the huff and puff of the big bad wolves!
Ian C. - Maple Grove, MN 55369
In an age of shady deals, short cuts, incompetent customer service, and disingenuous business practices 2nd Generation Chimneys stands as a reputable, fair, and honest company that not only uses their expertise to add value to your home but shares their formidable knowledge to enhance the joy in using your wood-burning fireplace. Rather than seeking to blow your budget and confidence down with jacked up prices and questionable maintenance procedures they have reasonable rates and send experts like Tyler, a consummate pro and the kind of upright person you want to have to protect your sizable chimney investment. You could call him a sheep dog when it comes to the dirty duty of cleaning your chimney. He doesn't cut corners of make excuses, but rather he rolls up his sleeves and makes sure that your fireplace is safe, clean, functional, and maintains the grandeur that it should have as a centerpiece in your home. Bring on the wolves of time, age, and use. Though they huff and they puff they can't blow our chimney down because we used 2nd Generation.
Exceeded expectations

Considerate and Competent Chimney Experts!
Ian C. - Maple Grove, MN 55369
I just wanted to relate to you the exceptional work performance displayed by your team members; namely, Tyler and Troy. They both went above and beyond in the recent repair of our chimney at our home. Having the job done by competent, personable, and trustworthy individuals is of paramount importance when inviting a contractor to a private residence, especially in times like these. Tyler and Troy put my entire family at ease not only with their obvious mastery of craft but also with their professionalism and customer service. I can’t fully express to you how relieved I am that our chimney is now safe and secure because of their fine craftsmanship. They are an asset to your organization and you should be proud of how they represent both you and your organization. I want to add that my positive impression of Tyler when he first came to assess the job was a crucial factor in my keeping your company in mind these past three years. I relay these well deserved kudos without reservation and sincerely thank you for sending to our house such fine workers, but of equal importance, individuals with a generous and kind spirit!
