Chimney Inspections

Our chimney technicians perform a standard level one inspection in most cases. However, sometimes a more in-depth level two inspection is necessary. A level two inspection involves a video scanner and gaining access to areas of the chimney not easily accessible.

Chimney Cleaning

Chimney cleaning is an important part of home maintenance. If you use your fireplace for burning wood, the products of incomplete combustion (soot & creosote) begin to build up in your chimney’s flue over time. The soot and creosote deposits are highly flammable. When these deposits finally ignite, a chimney fire occurs.

Leaky Chimneys

Leaking chimneys are one of the most common reasons we are contacted this time of year. Water can enter a chimney in a number of places and can do serious damage over time. Chimney leaks can cause:

  • Chimney odors
  • Rust dampers
  • Wood to rot

Chimney Caps

All chimneys require a chimney cap for protection. Water will, over time, erode the chimneys crown which will require costly repairs. Water damage inside a chimney can be even more expensive to repair. In some chimneys, water damage can cause a major fire hazard by rotting out flooring under a manufactured fireplace or rusting out the top of a manufactured fireplace.

Dryer Vent Cleaning

Dryer Vent Cleaning

Dryer vent cleaning can save time and electricity wasted while waiting on clothes to dry. In doing so, this also save money on costly dryer repairs and replacement.
According to the National Fire Protection Association, dryer vent fires are a common cause of home fires in the United States. This is because the dryer lint that builds up in your dryer exhaust duct is highly flammable.

1) What is a chimney liner?
A chimney liner is a material used to carry smoke and exhaust out of your chimney. Masonry construction typically uses a clay flue tile, although metal chimney flues are common today.
