About this service

This is a comprehensive maintenance visit where we sweep the flue to remove soot and creosote, followed by a safety check of the structure. If we find loose bricks or damaged mortar during the cleaning, we can address those repairs in the same visit. Pricing is influenced by the height of the chimney and the amount of labor required for repairs. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Summer offers clear, dry weather, making it the perfect time to handle exterior masonry repairs. Since your fireplace is likely dormant, we can complete structural work without disrupting your home life.
