have their chimney inspected at least once a year.
I offer a full portfolio of chimney venting system services. Whether it's woodstoves, fireplaces, chimneys, or dryer vents, I understand the intricacies of these venting systems in your home. I am equipped to address all of your maintenance and safety needs. My services include:
CHIMNEY INSPECTIONS & SWEEPING
As a CSIA Certified Chimney Sweep, I use state-of-the-art equipment to inspect and sweep 1st- and 2nd-story chimneys of all kinds, including wood-, and gas-burning chimneys. While sweeping your system, I ensure that it's in working order. I look for any problems that could prevent peak performance and recommend what is needed for your system to burn cleanly and safely. When necessary, I use video inspection camera equipment to examine hidden parts of the flue.
DRYER VENT INSPECTIONS & CLEANING
In addition to servicing chimneys, I inspect and clean dryer vents in one- and two-story homes. A thorough sweep includes searching for any issues that might interfere with optimal operation.
WATERPROOFING/REPAIR & RESTORATION
I offer the full range of repairs to chimney systems, big and small-from repairing leaky flashing to tuckpointing and masonry repair to relining the flue and minor masonry repair.
REBUILD CROWNS
Improperly built crowns are another common problem. If yours is cracked or poorly constructed-allowing water penetration or posing a fire hazard—I'll find a suitable repair.
INSTALL CHIMNEY CAPS
The best way to prevent moisture from rain, animals, leaves, and other debris from entering your chimney is to install a chimney cap. My high-quality stainless steel caps carry a lifetime warranty.
REPLACE CHASE TOPS
Leaky or damaged chase tops, and those made of masonry, are potential hazards on prefabricated metal fireplaces. I help eliminate problems before they start by replacing masonry and rusty metal chase tops.
WATER LEAK & CONDENSATION RESOLUTION & REPAIR
If water is damaging your fireplace inside or out, I will make every effort to resolve the problem.
PELLET GAS AND WOOD STOVE INSTALLATIONS
We use the best venting products available in the industry for our pellet, gas and wood stove installations. (See our
Installation of Products page for more info.)
