The parts of a chimney we work on

Most of a chimney is out of sight, behind the wall and above the roof. These are the parts we clean, inspect, repair and replace.

  1. Cap

    Keeps rain, birds and debris out of the flue. Chimney caps

  2. Flue liner

    Carries smoke and exhaust to the top. A cracked or unlined flue gets a new stainless steel liner. Stainless steel liners

  3. Smoke chamber

    The space above the damper. Rough or cracked brick here is resurfaced, so the smoke rises cleanly. Fireplace repair

  4. Damper

    Closes the flue when the fireplace is not in use. We repair or replace stuck and rusted dampers. Fireplace repair

  5. Firebox

    Where the fire burns. We sweep it with the flue, and we rebuild damaged firebrick. Chimney sweep

  6. Boiler and water heater flue

    Its own flue in the same chimney, cleaned, inspected and relined to fit the appliance. Boiler venting

Our gas fireplace had not been serviced in several years and needed attention. Nathan Cooper carefully inspected the unit, completed repairs, and cleaned the chimney system. He explained every step and answered all my questions. The fireplace now operates like new. Their gas fireplace repair and chimney inspection services were professional and reliable.

While I was out of state, and under pressure to get my gas fireplace serviced and running smoothly and safely, Vlad responded very quickly to make it happen. He upgraded our 20yr old system in a very timely manner and was always available for communication and confirmation. I greatly appreciated his professionalism and accessibility in a time of stress. His company will be my go to for service.

Excellent Chimney Service!

I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. The team was professional, punctual, and very knowledgeable. They explained everything clearly before starting, worked efficiently, and left the area spotless when they were done. My fireplace and chimney have never looked or worked better! I really appreciated their honesty and attention to detail. Highly recommend this company to anyone needing chimney cleaning, inspection, or repair, truly top-notch service from start to finish.

Vlad and his teammate came to clean my chimney which had 10+ years of build up. Arrived on schedule, were clean and professional, used drop cloths/vacuums/disposable shoe covers, and finished the job exactly when they predicted.

Great service. Would definitely use them again.

I recently had chimney sweep service come out for a chimney inspection and cleaning, and they did an excellent job. The technician was on time, professional, and very knowledgeable, he walked me through everything he found and even showed pictures of the inside of the flue so I could see the before and after.

Vlad and his team were incredibly professional. Not only did they pick up and come help resolve the issue as soon as they could, they were so communicative. I was also extremely impressed by the fact that when we needed a part, they were already prepared with a spare in the truck. Vlad has listened and talked me through troubleshooting several times on the phone, and he is quick to come to a resolution to improve the fireplace ASAP. It is very clear that this company cares a great deal about their clients and the quality of their work. I very much depend on them to keep things running through the winter!
