Services
Chimney Cleaning
Our technicians perform thorough chimney cleaning using industrial vacuums and specialized brushes. This removes creosote buildup and soot to prevent fire hazards while improving airflow efficiency. Regular maintenance ensures safe operation of fireplaces and wood stoves.
Level 3 Inspections
These comprehensive assessments involve removing chimney coverings to examine structural integrity. Required after chimney fires or natural disasters, they identify hidden damage through physical examination and diagnostic tools.
Chimney Repairs
We address damaged crowns, dampers, and flue tiles that compromise chimney functionality. Repairs restore safety and efficiency by sealing leaks and replacing worn components like refractories or chase covers.
Chimney Caps
Installation of chimney caps prevents water intrusion, animal nesting, and ember escape. These durable covers extend chimney lifespan while reducing blockage risks and fire hazards from flying sparks.
Damper Replacement
We install energy-efficient Lymance Top-Sealing Dampers that retain 90% of heated air. These rubber-gasketed units reduce utility costs by preventing heat loss through damaged traditional dampers.
