From the ownerSince 2018

A family business, not a franchise.

My grandfather began cleaning chimneys in Philadelphia with a truck, a set of brushes, and a commitment to leave every hearth in better shape than he found it. That is still how we operate.

When you call, you speak with our family, not an answering service, and the technician who shows up is someone we trained personally. Our reputation rides on every job.

FAQ

Common questions before booking

Something else? Call (267) 327-3780.

What is included in an inspection?

We run a camera through the flue liner, examine the crown, cap, flashing, damper, and firebox, and hand you a written report with photographs.

Can you service wood stoves as well?

Absolutely — wood and pellet stoves receive a complete cleaning and safety review, from the stovepipe through the baffle and the door gasket.

How do you protect my home while you work?

We spread drop cloths from the entrance to the hearth, put on shoe covers, seal the fireplace opening, and keep a HEPA vacuum running the entire time.

How long should I expect the visit to last?

A typical sweep takes roughly an hour. Adding a camera inspection extends the visit by another 30 to 45 minutes.

How frequently should a chimney be swept?

Once a year for most households that burn wood regularly. If you go through more than a cord per season or notice dark flakes in the firebox, schedule a sweep sooner.
