Call (844) 803-1545

Speedway sits four miles west of our Indianapolis service area, built in a concentrated burst from the late 1930s through the 1960s to house workers from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. That history matters when you’re climbing a roof on a home where the original clay flue tiles have carried sixty to eighty years of freeze-thaw cycles. We’ve cleaned, inspected, and repaired chimneys on Carlisle Street, along 16th Street corridors, and throughout the neighborhoods between Georgetown Road and Lynhurst Drive. The work is familiar because the housing stock is so consistent - and because we’ve been doing it here for more than a decade.

Why Speedway Homeowners Choose Hearthstone Chimney Co.

Speedway homeowners tend to stay put. They’ve owned their houses for twenty, thirty, forty years. They’ve also been burned by a contractor before, and they remember the details. We don’t waste their time proving ourselves - we show up in uniform, background-checked, and we document what we find with photos the homeowner can see and a plain-English verdict they can understand.

Our Level-2 camera inspections end with a written report, not a verbal shrug. The 90-Day Done Right Promise is backed in writing with no arguing - if it’s not right, we come back. Calls to (844) 803-1545 are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and most jobs are completed in a single visit with no-hassle upfront pricing. The number on the estimate is the number on the invoice.

We’ve served homes north of 16th Street near the Speedway town center, along the residential corridors of Belleville Drive, and throughout the established blocks between Cunningham Road and Main Street, including nearby Brownsburg, IN. Our response time to Speedway is typically same-day or next-day, depending on call volume and whether the Indy 500 calendar has compressed the schedule.

Chimney Cleaning Services We Offer in Speedway

Chimney Cleaning & Sweep

We remove creosote buildup, soot, and obstructions from wood-burning and gas appliance flues using professional-grade brushes and vacuums. A standard sweep includes a visual inspection of accessible components and a condition assessment you can read without a engineering degree. Learn more about our Chimney Cleaning & Sweep in Speedway.

Chimney Repair

Spalling brick, deteriorated mortar joints, and cracked crowns are the norm on Speedway’s 60-80 year old masonry chimneys, not the exception. We rebuild with materials rated for Central Indiana’s hard freeze-thaw cycles, including professional-grade products from Olympia Chimney and Copperfield. Learn more about our Chimney Repair in Speedway.

Fireplace Services

Firebox refractory panel replacement, damper repair, and gas log set installation for the working fireplaces and inserts common in Speedway’s mid-century ranches and bungalows. We work with HeatShield and Famco components where the job demands it. Learn more about our Fireplace Services in Speedway.

Chimney Cap & Crown Installation

A proper crown sheds water away from the flue; a proper cap keeps animals, debris, and weather out. On Speedway’s aging chimney stock, crown deterioration is nearly universal - we pour new concrete crowns and install stainless or copper caps that outlast the originals. Learn more about our Chimney Cap & Crown - Speedway.

Chimney Liner & Rebuild

Clay flue tiles in Speedway homes are at or past their 50-75 year service life. We install DuraFlex stainless steel liners and complete rebuilds where the structure has been compromised by decades of thermal cycling and moisture intrusion. Learn more about our Chimney Liner & Rebuild - Speedway.

Neighborhoods We Serve in Speedway

Our technicians make regular runs through Speedway’s established residential core, with same-day or next-day availability throughout the 46224 ZIP. These are the neighborhoods we know block by block:

• Speedway Town Center - the original IMS-worker housing near 16th Street and Main Street, dense with 1940s brick bungalows and their original clay-tile flues
• Belleville Drive area - post-war Cape Cods and early ranches with single-flue masonry chimneys now requiring crown and liner attention
• Cunningham Road corridor - 1950s and 1960s ranch homes where gas fireplace conversions have left older flues undersized or unlined
• Georgetown Road vicinity - mixed-era housing with accelerated mortar erosion from traffic vibration and exposure

Why Speedway’s Climate & Housing Affect Chimney Cleaning

Central Indiana’s hard freeze-thaw cycles run from November through March, and Speedway’s brick-and-mortar chimneys absorb that punishment without the benefit of modern refractory materials. The clay tiles installed in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s expand and contract through every cycle, and the mortar joints between them gradually turn to powder. By the time we inspect a typical Speedway chimney, the flue tiles are often cracked, the mortar is missing in sections, and the crown has developed hairline fractures that channel water straight into the structure.

This is not a scattered pattern. Because Speedway was built out almost entirely in the late 1930s through the 1960s to house Indianapolis Motor Speedway workers and racing-industry families, virtually every masonry chimney in the 46224 ZIP is now 60-80 years old. The entire housing supply is aging together at the same rate, creating a concentrated, town-wide demand for flue relining and crown repair that our technicians encounter on nearly every job here. Long, cold heating seasons also mean gas appliance vents and wood-burning fireboxes accumulate meaningful buildup annually. A chimney in Speedway that was “fine” five years ago is often not fine now, and the homeowner discovers this only when creosote odor, drafting problems, or visible deterioration finally force the call.

There’s also the calendar compression. Scheduling in May requires working around the Indy 500 race calendar - the corridors around 16th Street and Georgetown Road lock up during qualification weekends and race week, and many Speedway homeowners defer spring chimney inspections until after the 500. That compresses the pre-summer inspection window into a very short period that fills fast. We recommend booking before Memorial Day, or waiting until mid-June when the schedule opens again.
