Hiring A Chimney Sweep

A chimney sweep is a professional who specializes in cleaning and maintaining chimneys. Chimney sweeps have been around for centuries, providing an essential service to homeowners and businesses alike.

Today, chimney sweeping is still crucial for maintaining a safe and efficient fireplace or wood-burning stove. In addition to removing soot and debris from the chimney, a sweep can perform what is called a level 2 inspection to check for potential cracks or spalling.

Professional Chimney Cleaning

Whether you have a traditional wood-burning fireplace or a modern gas insert, it's essential to have your chimney cleaned and inspected regularly. A well-maintained chimney not only looks better but also performs more efficiently and is less likely to develop dangerous creosote buildup. Neglecting to properly maintain your chimney, will raise the levels of carbon monoxide in the air of your property.

Repair Services

If you have a chimney, it's essential to have it inspected and repaired as needed. A vent in poor condition can be a safety hazard, leading to inefficiency in your fireplace or wood stove.

There are two types of chimneys: masonry and metal. Masonry chimneys are brick, stone, or concrete, while metal chimneys are steel, aluminum, or stainless steel. Both types require regular cleaning and inspection to ensure safe and efficient operation.

Brick chimneys are more traditional and most common among New Jersey properties. Metal chimneys are more common in modern homes and used for gas or oil furnaces. Unfortunately, both types can develop cracks, leaks, and other damage in their flue liner over time. Therefore, it's essential to have them inspected and repaired as needed.

Our service covers cap replacement, flue liner repair, chimney crown replacement, and chimney flashing replacement.

The Types of Fireplaces We Service

There are various types of fireplaces: masonry, prefabricated, and zero-clearance. Masonry fireplaces are the most traditional and are made of brick, stone, or concrete. Prefabricated fireplaces are factory-made and usually made of metal. Finally, zero-clearance fireplaces are designed for modern, energy-efficient homes and are made of metal or plastic.

All three fireplaces require regular cleaning and maintenance to ensure safe and efficient operation. Chimney repair is also necessary from time to time, depending on the type of fireplace and how often it's used. If you're not sure whether your fireplace or chimney needs repair, it's always best to consult with a professional.

Fireplaces can be operated using electric, gas, or wood.

Electric Fireplace

An electric fireplace is a great alternative to a traditional wood-burning fireplace. It provides all the ambiance and warmth of a traditional fireplace, but without the mess and hassle.

An electric fireplace is easy to install and can be used in any room of your home. It doesn't require a vent or flue, so there's no need for major renovations. Plus, electric fireplaces are very efficient and can help you save money on your energy bills.

Gas Fireplace

A gas fireplace is a convenient and efficient way to heat your home. Gas fireplaces are available in both indoor and outdoor models, so you can choose the one that best suits your needs.

Gas fireplaces are easy to operate and can be turned on with the flip of a switch. They're also very efficient, providing more heat for less fuel.

Wood Fireplace

A wood fireplace is a classic choice for those who want to heat their home with a traditional fireplace. Wood fireplaces are available in both masonry and prefabricated models, so you can choose the one that best suits your needs.

Wood fireplaces are not as efficient as gas or electric fireplaces, but they do provide a more traditional look and feel. They also produce less pollution than other types of fireplaces.
