Chimney Inspections
Our certified technicians perform Level 1, 2, and 3 chimney inspections following NFPA 211 standards. Using advanced video scanning, we identify structural damage, creosote buildup, and water intrusion points. Annual inspections prevent fires, ensure safe operation, and maintain compliance with local building codes for masonry and prefabricated chimneys.
Chimney Sweeps
Professional chimney sweeping removes creosote buildup and blockages from wood-burning fireplaces and stoves. Our CSIA-certified technicians use specialized brushes and vacuums to clean flues, fireboxes, and connectors. Regular maintenance prevents chimney fires, improves efficiency, and extends the lifespan of your heating system.
Chimney Leak Repairs
We diagnose and fix chimney leaks caused by cracked crowns, damaged flashing, or faulty caps. Our solutions include crown replacement, tuckpointing, and stainless steel chase covers. Waterproofing treatments protect masonry chimneys from water damage and prevent interior staining or mold growth.
Gas Fireplace Services
Our technicians service direct vent gas fireplaces, including pilot assembly replacement and venting system maintenance. We perform annual inspections to detect gas leaks, clean burners, and ensure proper ignition. We also install EPA-certified gas logs and repair damaged fireplace components.
Wood Stove Removal
We safely remove outdated slammer inserts and non-compliant wood stoves. Our process includes chimney cleaning, masonry restoration, and installation of EPA-approved inserts. We restore fireplaces to meet NFPA 211 standards, improving safety and efficiency while eliminating fire hazards.
