Swartz Creek splits the difference in Genesee County housing: about half the city's homes predate 1980, with the rest filled in through the decades since, and roughly 70% owner-occupied per Census figures. The older half carries the county's signature mid-century masonry — brick ranches with clay-tile flues — while newer builds toward the township line run prefab fireplaces and gas systems. Both end up on the same fall schedule when burning season arrives.
Service here runs from in-town blocks out through Clayton and Gaines townships — where the housing spreads out and wood heat gets serious. Rural southwest-county stoves that run all winter are the hardest-working flues in the service area, and they earn the full treatment: stovepipe and liner cleaning, gasket and clearance checks, and a sweeping schedule matched to the burn rate rather than the calendar.
In-town, the mid-century checklist applies: crowns, joints, dampers, and the orphaned furnace-flue pattern common to every 1950s–70s plat in the county. Whatever the system, the report is the same deal — photos, plain language, and a written number before any repair work starts.

(810) 250-7909Yes — Clayton, Gaines, and Mundy townships and the rest of the southwest county are in the regular service area.
Match the sweeping to the burn, not the calendar: NFPA 211's threshold is 1/8 inch of creosote whenever it accrues. Full-winter stoves commonly justify a mid-season sweep on top of the fall service.
Off-season, usually within days. In the fall rush, the calendar fills fast — call and you'll get a real slot, not a promise.
