Certified chimney sweep services that keep your family safe and your fireplace working efficiently year-round.
Your fireplace becomes a source of comfort instead of worry. No more wondering if that smell is normal or if you’re putting your family at risk every time you light a fire.
Clean chimneys burn more efficiently, which means better heat output and lower energy costs. You’ll notice the difference in how your fireplace draws and how much less smoke enters your room.
Most importantly, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your chimney system is free from dangerous creosote buildup and structural issues that could lead to house fires or carbon monoxide problems. Regular professional cleaning extends your chimney’s lifespan and protects your property investment.
We have been serving Morningside Heights and Manhattan residents with professional chimney services for years. We understand the unique challenges of maintaining chimneys in pre-war buildings and modern high-rises throughout the neighborhood.
Every one of our technicians is certified and insured, bringing the expertise needed to handle everything from routine annual cleanings to complex inspection issues. Our team knows Manhattan’s building codes and works efficiently to minimize disruption to busy schedules.
Local homeowners choose us because we show up on time, complete thorough work, and explain exactly what we find during every service call.
First, our technician conducts a visual inspection of your chimney system, checking for obvious damage, blockages, or safety concerns. This includes examining the firebox, damper, flue, and exterior chimney structure.
Next comes the actual cleaning process. Using professional-grade brushes and vacuum equipment, our technician removes creosote buildup, soot, and debris from the entire flue system. All work areas are protected with drop cloths and the process is designed to contain dust and debris.
Finally, you receive a detailed report of the cleaning and any issues discovered during the inspection. If repairs or additional maintenance are needed, you’ll get clear explanations and recommendations for next steps. The entire process typically takes 1-2 hours depending on your chimney’s condition.

You’ll also receive documentation of the cleaning for insurance purposes and recommendations for optimal burning practices. If your chimney hasn’t been cleaned in over a year, or if you’re experiencing smoke problems, unusual odors, or poor fireplace performance, professional cleaning typically resolves these issues immediately.
