The most common mistake people make before calling us in New York is assuming their chimney is fine because they don't use it often. Even infrequent use can lead to creosote buildup. With a population of over 8.2 million, New York City has countless buildings with chimneys that require professional attention. The process starts with protecting your space. Drop cloths are carefully placed to cover floors and furniture. The technician then sets up their specialized tools, including brushes and vacuums. The cleaning involves running brushes up and down the chimney flue. These brushes are sized for your specific chimney. They dislodge creosote, a flammable substance, and soot. A powerful vacuum system captures the loosened debris. This prevents dust from spreading through your apartment or home. After the flue is clear, the technicians inspect the smoke chamber and firebox. They also check the damper to ensure it’s working correctly. Call now for a free estimate.

What affects the price

The final price for your chimney service depends on a few specific things we look at once we get started. How long it has been since your last cleaning is a big factor, as more buildup requires more intensive work to clear out safely. The height of your chimney, how easily we can access the roof, and the overall design of your fireplace system also play roles in the effort required. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
