Chimney Sweep, Mount Airy, MD | Chimney Repair, Rebuild, Inspection | Fireplaces, Freestanding Stoves, Inserts – Sales & Installation

Chimney Sweep

Our chimney sweep services include using specialized brushes, scrapers and vacuums to thoroughly remove dangerous creosote and soot from the chimney flue. Creosote is responsible for most chimney fires in the U.S. each year, so annual chimney cleaning is important. We also clean out debris from trees and animal nests to keep your fireplace drafting properly.

All our chimney cleaning activities are overseen by trained technicians who are certified by the Chimney Safety Institute of America and the National Fireplace Institute. Work on your chimney will be done safely and correctly every time.

Mount Airy, MD, Chimney Inspections

Professional chimney inspections safeguard your chimney by determining the cause of problems and getting them fixed fast. There are three recognized levels of chimney inspection.

A Level 1 inspection covers visible areas of the chimney and its components.

Level 2 inspections are called for following a chimney fire, when the home is being sold and when a new appliance is being hooked up to the chimney.

Level 3 inspections are performed when known significant damage exists within the chimney system.

Chimney Masonry – Seal-Coating & Tuckpointing

Damage to chimney masonry isn’t a huge problem if it’s caught early. If sections of bricks have fallen from the structure, a process known as tuckpointing refills open areas with a strong compound to restore safety to your chimney. When cracks are developing in the bricks and mortar, a waterproof coating can prevent serious water damage and prolong the life of your chimney.

We’re ready and able to handle any chimney masonry repair work at your Mount Airy home and exceed your expectations every time.

Chimney Rebuilding Services

When chimneys pass a certain age, they’re prone to decay and decomposition. If your chimney is beginning to lean to the side or if large sections of brick and mortar are missing, our certified chimney technicians can partially or completely rebuild your chimney and make it safe to operate and live around. Count on Maryland’s chimney experts for superior service and unmatched workmanship.
