/ Owner-Operated, Boise-Based

The person on your roof called you back.

No call centers. No dispatched crews you've never met. One operator, one standard, every job.

— How This Started

A trade learned from the flue up.

Poppins started because most chimney calls end with a vague report and an upsell. That didn't sit right. So we built something different: one operator, every inspection done in person, every finding explained before any work begins.

We're based here, we work here, and we'll be here next season if something comes up. That's what local actually means.

▸ How We Work

We show you what we find. Then we ask.

Before any cleaning starts, you see the creosote level, the cap condition, and the draft situation — in plain terms, not trade shorthand. You decide what happens next.

We don't carry a product catalog. We carry brushes, a camera, and a notepad. Every job gets the time it needs — not the time left between the next two calls.

Ready to see what's in your chimney?

Every inspection starts with a walk-through of exactly what we found — no report mailed later, no surprise line items at the end.
