Services
Chimney Cleaning
Our professional chimney cleaning service removes creosote buildup and debris to ensure safe, efficient fireplace operation. Technicians use specialized brushes and HEPA-filtered vacuums to clean flues thoroughly while protecting indoor air quality. The process includes a basic inspection to identify potential issues requiring further attention.
Fireplace Inspections
Comprehensive fireplace inspections evaluate system components for cracks, leaks, or deterioration. Our WETT-certified technicians check clearances to combustibles, damper functionality, and venting performance. Inspections help identify maintenance needs before they become safety hazards or expensive repairs.
Chimney Repairs
We handle all chimney repair needs from minor mortar repairs to complete crown replacements. Our technicians address water damage, cracked liners, and structural issues using durable materials that meet building code requirements. Repairs include waterproofing treatments to extend system lifespan.
Liner Installation
Professional chimney liner installation ensures proper venting of combustion gases. We install stainless steel and aluminum liners for wood, gas, and oil-burning appliances. Properly sized liners improve efficiency and prevent dangerous carbon monoxide leaks into living spaces.
Annual Maintenance
Our annual maintenance programs combine cleaning, inspection, and minor adjustments to keep chimneys operating safely. Regular maintenance prevents emergency situations and extends equipment lifespan. Clients receive detailed reports and priority scheduling for service appointments.
