Cleaning, inspection and repair for fireplaces, wood stoves and furnace flues.
Every time you burn wood, a layer of soot and creosote can form inside the flue. Creosote is flammable, and thick buildup is a leading cause of chimney fires. Our sweeping service removes it with professional rods and brushes, leaving the flue clear and ready for the burning season.
We protect your floors, clean the firebox and remove the debris before we leave.

An inspection tells you the real condition of your chimney before small problems become expensive ones. We check the flue, firebox, crown, cap, bricks, mortar and flashing, and we explain what we see.
Inspections are also useful when buying a home, after a storm or before you use a fireplace that has been idle for years.

A chimney cap sits on top of the flue and keeps out rain, leaves, birds and small animals. The mesh also helps stop sparks from escaping onto the roof.
We install caps sized for your flue and replace caps that are rusted, bent or missing.

Smoke needs a clear path to leave your house. We brush the flue and chimney pots from the top down, clearing nests, leaves and soot that block airflow and cause smoke to back up into your rooms.

Brick and mortar break down slowly under rain, freezing temperatures and sun. Crumbling joints and cracked bricks let water into the chimney and shorten its life.
We repair damaged mortar joints and replace failed bricks so the structure stays solid and watertight.

The crown at the top of the chimney and the flashing where it meets the roof are the two most common leak points. We seal cracks, repair or replace worn flashing and help keep water out of your attic and walls.
