When a chimney inspection is required?
Routine Maintenance
It's recommended to have a chimney inspection at least once a year as part of routine maintenance, especially if you use your fireplace or heating appliance frequently. Regular inspections help identify and address any issues before they escalate into more significant problems.
After Chimney Fires
If your chimney has experienced a chimney fire, no matter how small, it's crucial to have it inspected immediately. Even minor chimney fires can cause damage to the chimney liner and other components, increasing the risk of future fires if not addressed promptly.
Change in Heating System
If you're considering switching to a different heating system or fuel type, such as converting from wood to gas or vice versa, it's essential to have a chimney inspection to ensure that the chimney is compatible with the new system and meets safety requirements.

Our Chimney Repair Services
Masonry Repair
Over time, the masonry of your chimney can deteriorate due to exposure to the elements, water damage, or age. We offer expert masonry repair services to fix cracks, spalling bricks, crumbling mortar, and other issues, restoring the structural integrity and aesthetic appeal of your chimney.
Chimney Liner Repair
The chimney liner plays a critical role in protecting your home from heat and preventing the buildup of creosote. If your chimney liner is damaged or deteriorating, we can repair it using high-quality materials and techniques to ensure optimal performance and safety.
Chimney Cap Replacement
A chimney cap is essential for keeping out rainwater, debris, and animals while allowing smoke and gases to escape. If your chimney cap is damaged or missing, we can replace it with a durable, weather-resistant cap to protect your chimney and prevent costly damage.
Chimney Crown Repair
The chimney crown is the concrete or mortar cap that seals the top of the chimney. If the crown is cracked or deteriorating, water can penetrate the chimney, leading to water damage and structural issues. We can repair or replace damaged chimney crowns to prevent costly repairs and prolong the life of your chimney.
Chimney Cleaning Service
Regular chimney cleaning is essential for maintaining the safety and efficiency of your chimney system. Over time, creosote, a highly flammable substance, can accumulate inside your chimney, increasing the risk of chimney fires and carbon monoxide poisoning. Our chimney cleaning service removes creosote buildup, as well as debris, bird nests, and other obstructions, ensuring that your chimney is clear and free-flowing.
Sweeping Your Chimney
During our chimney cleaning process, our highly skilled technicians use specialized tools and equipment to sweep your chimney thoroughly from top to bottom. We start by inspecting the chimney to assess its condition and identify any potential issues. Then, using brushes, rods, and vacuums, we remove creosote buildup, soot, and debris from the chimney flue, liner, smoke chamber, and firebox. We pay close attention to detail to ensure that every part of your chimney is clean and safe for use.
