What You Get With Proper Care

Your chimney works like it should. No smoke backing up into your living room during family dinners. No wondering if that smell means something’s wrong. No panic calls when the temperature drops and your fireplace won’t draw properly.

You sleep better knowing your family’s safe from carbon monoxide and fire hazards. Your heating bills stay reasonable because your system runs efficiently. Your home insurance stays valid because your chimney meets safety codes.

When you maintain your chimney properly, small problems stay small. A $200 cleaning prevents a $2,000 repair. A routine inspection catches issues before they become emergencies. That’s how smart homeowners protect their biggest investment.

Chimney Inspection and Repair Process

Simple Process, Professional Results

We start with a thorough inspection using professional cameras and tools to see what’s really going on inside your chimney. No guessing, no assumptions. We document everything and show you exactly what we find.

If cleaning is needed, we protect your home with drop cloths and use industrial equipment to remove creosote, debris, and blockages safely. For repairs, we explain what’s wrong, why it matters, and what it costs before we start any work.

You get a detailed report of what we did and recommendations for future maintenance. Most jobs are completed the same day. Emergency repairs get priority scheduling because we know heating problems can’t wait in Brooklyn winters.

How often should I have my chimney cleaned and inspected?

The National Fire Protection Association recommends annual chimney inspections, but your actual cleaning schedule depends on usage. If you burn wood regularly, you’ll need cleaning every 1-2 years. Gas fireplaces need less frequent cleaning but should still be inspected annually for proper venting and safety. Oil heating systems create more residue and may need attention every year. During your inspection, we’ll tell you exactly when your next cleaning should be scheduled based on what we find. Don’t wait for problems to develop – prevention costs much less than repairs.
Call us right away if you see white staining on the outside of your chimney, which indicates water damage. Rust on your damper or firebox means moisture is getting in where it shouldn’t. If you smell odors coming from your fireplace when it’s not in use, that’s a ventilation problem. Damaged chimney crowns, loose or missing mortar, and animals or birds in your chimney all need prompt attention. Most importantly, if smoke enters your room instead of going up the chimney, stop using your fireplace immediately and call for service. These aren’t DIY fixes – they require professional assessment and repair.
Basic chimney cleaning typically runs $200-400 depending on your chimney’s condition and accessibility. Inspections cost $150-300 for a thorough assessment with camera work. Repair costs vary widely based on what’s needed – minor mortar work might cost a few hundred dollars, while chimney rebuilds can run several thousand. We always provide written estimates before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Emergency service calls have higher rates, which is why we recommend annual maintenance to avoid urgent situations. Most homeowners find that regular maintenance costs much less than letting problems develop into major repairs.
Yes, we service chimneys for wood-burning fireplaces, gas fireplaces, oil heating systems, and gas heating systems. Each type has different maintenance requirements and potential problems. We’re experienced with the older chimney systems common in Prospect Lefferts Gardens brownstones as well as newer installations. Our team handles both masonry chimneys and prefab systems. We also work on commercial properties and multi-family buildings. Whether you need routine maintenance, emergency repairs, or complete system upgrades, we have the tools and expertise to handle your specific situation safely and effectively.
Absolutely. We carry full licensing and insurance required for chimney work in New York City, including liability insurance and workers’ compensation. We understand NYC building codes and permit requirements for chimney repairs and installations. Our technicians receive ongoing training on safety protocols and industry best practices. We can provide proof of insurance and licensing upon request. This protection matters for you as a homeowner – if something goes wrong during the job, you’re covered. Never hire unlicensed contractors for chimney work. The risks to your safety and property are too high, and your homeowner’s insurance may not cover damage from unlicensed work.
Yes, we offer emergency chimney services because heating problems can’t wait, especially during Brooklyn winters. If your heating system isn’t venting properly, you smell gas or smoke, or your chimney is blocked, we’ll prioritize your call. Emergency service includes evenings and weekends during heating season. Common emergency situations include blocked flues, damaged venting systems, and heating equipment malfunctions that create safety hazards. While emergency rates are higher than scheduled service, we keep our pricing fair and transparent. The best way to avoid emergency calls is through annual maintenance, but when urgent problems arise, we’re here to restore your safety and comfort quickly.
