About us
Home upkeep, made simple.
The jobs that protect a house are the easiest ones to put off: the chimney nobody has looked inside, the gutters that overflowed last winter, the moss creeping across the roof.
Julius Services takes care of them for homeowners across Seattle and the Eastside. We show up when we say we will, protect your home while we work, and show you photos of what we found.
If something needs repair, you get a clear explanation and a price before anything is done. If it doesn't, we'll tell you that too.
What we take off your list.
01Chimney
Creosote in the flue
Sweeping removes the soot and creosote that build up with every fire.
02Leaks
Water in the chimney
Crowns, caps, flashing, and mortar joints are checked and repaired before a small leak becomes a big one.
03Gutters
Overflowing gutters
Gutters and downspouts are cleared and flushed, so rainwater runs away from the house.
04Roof
Moss on the roof
Moss is removed with methods suited to your roofing, then treated to slow its return.
05Dryer
A dryer that takes two cycles
The vent line is cleared from the dryer to the outside wall, so air moves freely again.
06Exterior
Green, slippery walkways
Driveways, paths, decks, and patios are washed clean of algae, moss, and grime.

FAQ
Questions.
Anything else, ask us when you book.
01How often should a chimney be swept?
The national standard, NFPA 211, calls for chimneys, fireplaces, and vents to be inspected at least once a year and cleaned when needed. If you burn wood regularly, plan on a sweep every year. More about chimney sweeping.
02When is the best time to book chimney work?
Late spring through early fall. The weather is dry enough for roof and masonry work, and you'll be ready before the first cold night. Fall is the busiest season, so booking early helps.
03How often do gutters need cleaning around Seattle?
At least twice a year for most homes: in late fall after the leaves drop, and again in spring. Homes under fir, cedar, or maple trees often need a third cleaning.
04Do you pressure wash roofs?
Not asphalt shingle roofs. High pressure strips the granules that protect the shingles. Moss is removed with gentler methods and then treated. See how moss removal works.
05Can you do several services in one visit?
Often, yes. A chimney sweep, gutter cleaning, and dryer vent cleaning fit well together, and it saves you a second appointment. Tell us everything you'd like done when you book.
06Do I need to be home?
For chimney, fireplace, and dryer vent work, yes, because we need to get inside. For gutters, roofs, and pressure washing, usually not, as long as we can reach the outside of the house and a water spigot.
07Which areas do you serve?
Seattle, Bellevue, Mercer Island, Kirkland, Redmond, Sammamish, Issaquah, Bothell, Renton, Shoreline, and the neighborhoods around them. See all service areas.
