Our team handles both residential and commercial chimneys, and we're certified to work on all types of chimneys and fireplaces. We also offer animal removal services and can address any chimney-related issues you might encounter.

The National Fire Protection Association recommends annual chimney inspections and cleaning. If you use your fireplace frequently (more than 3 times per week during winter), you might need more frequent cleanings. Regular maintenance helps prevent chimney fires, ensures proper ventilation of harmful gases, and extends the life of your chimney system. We recommend scheduling your annual inspection before the heating season begins.

Watch for warning signs such as: smoke filling the room, strong odors, visible creosote buildup, damaged or missing chimney caps, crumbling mortar or bricks, white staining on exterior brick (efflorescence), animal noises, water damage around the fireplace or chimney, rusted damper or firebox, and poor drafting. If you notice any of these signs, it's important to schedule an inspection promptly.

During an inspection, we examine all accessible portions of your chimney's interior and exterior, including the firebox, damper, flue, crown, and masonry. We use specialized cameras to inspect the flue lining for damage. The cleaning process involves removing creosote, soot, and debris using professional-grade brushes and vacuums. We take care to protect your home during the process and provide you with a detailed report of our findings.
