Complete Chimney Cleaning Services
Chimneys collect soot, creosote, and debris over time. Without proper cleaning, these materials can restrict airflow, damage your chimney, and dramatically increase the risk of chimney fires. Our team provides thorough cleaning for:
Fireplaces
Wood stoves
Oil heating systems
Gas heating systems
We remove dangerous buildup, improve ventilation, and ensure your chimney is functioning at peak performance.
Fireplace Cleaning for Safe, Enjoyable Use
A fireplace adds warmth and comfort to your home—but only when it’s properly maintained. Creosote, soot, and ash accumulate quickly, especially during heavy use.
Our fireplace cleaning includes:
- Removing soot and creosote buildup
- Clearing smoke shelf and firebox debris
- Checking for blockages
- Ensuring proper draft and airflow
- Inspecting for signs of damage
We leave your fireplace clean, safe, and ready for use, so you can enjoy it with confidence all season long.
Wood Stove Cleaning to Prevent Creosote Buildup
Wood stoves burn hotter and produce more creosote than traditional fireplaces, making regular cleaning essential. Excess creosote is one of the leading causes of chimney fires.
Our wood stove cleaning service includes:
Full flue and stovepipe cleaning
Creosote removal
Firebox cleaning
Draft and airflow checks
Safety inspection for cracks or leaks
With 30 years of experience, we know how to clean wood stoves thoroughly and safely.
Oil and Gas Heating System Chimney Cleaning
Even if you don’t use a fireplace, your home’s heating system still relies on a chimney or venting system. Over time, oil and gas systems produce soot, residue, and blockages that can affect efficiency and safety.
We clean chimneys connected to:
Oil furnaces
Gas furnaces
Oil boilers
Gas boilers
Water heaters
Our cleaning helps:
Improve heating efficiency
Reduce carbon monoxide risks
Prevent blockages and ventilation issues
Extend the life of your heating system
A clean chimney means a safer, more efficient home.
Blockage Removal for Clear, Safe Ventilation
Blockages are a major hazard—especially when caused by animals, nests, or debris. A blocked chimney can lead to smoke backup, carbon monoxide exposure, and fire risks.
We safely remove:
Bird nests
Squirrel nests
Leaves and debris
Creosote blockages
Collapsed flue materials
Once cleared, we ensure your chimney has proper airflow and is safe to use.
