Chimney Cleaning

At Chimneys Are Us, chimney cleaning is a meticulous process to ensure the safety and efficiency of your chimney system. Our knowledgeable professionals are aware of how crucial it is to get rid of dirt, creosote buildup, and other pollutants to keep your house safe.

Why Do Chimneys Require Cleaning?

One vital fire hazard that can develop on the inside walls of the chimney is creosote, a combustion residue that can accumulate over time if left ignored. Additionally, debris such as leaves, twigs, and animal nests can clog the chimney flue, which will reduce the efficiency of your fireplace or wood stove by obstructing proper airflow.

How Do We Clean Your Chimney?

Our certified professionals carefully scrub the inside surfaces of the chimney using specialized tools and brushes during our cleaning service. This all-encompassing method guarantees the complete removal of creosote and debris and enhances chimney safety and performance. Frequent cleaning of your chimney increases the chimney's overall efficiency and reduces the risk of chimney fires. It also improves draft and circulation. You can rely on Chimneys Are Us to handle your chimney requests while protecting your home's safety and comfort for years to come.

Chimney Rebuild

Rebuilding your chimney becomes vital when repairs are no longer possible. At Chimneys Are Us, we feel that sometimes rebuilding is a more economical option than trying to address each problem one at a time which can become costly. It's possible that fixing crowns, flashing, shoulders, tiles, and mortar separately will only sometimes result in the best long-term fix. That's where our skilled chimney restoration services come into play.

Our Rebuilding Process:

When constructing a chimney, our knowledgeable crew follows an orderly procedure. Usually, we begin by scaffolding or establishing a suitable staging around the chimney. We carefully remove the old chimney top-down until it is solid, then rebuild it using new materials with our crew. We are equipped to tackle any project, whether it involves a partial rebuild, a roof or flashing-up rebuild, or a total removal and replacement all the way down to the ground. 

Chimney Crown Repair

The chimney's first line of protection against weather-related damage is the cap of the chimney. Its deterioration or cracking over time puts the chimney's safety in danger.

How Do We Fix Chimney Crowns?

Our Crown Coat treatment is perfect for well-maintained chimneys that require further protection. It provides water damage protection by functioning as a flexible waterproof membrane.

If the damage is too severe for simple repairs, you will need to rebuild the chimney crown. We at Chimneys Are Us are experts in this complex procedure, which entails removing the old crown and installing a new one. Our skilled staff works carefully and precisely to complete the labor-intensive demolition and rebuilding. We might set up staging or a platform to help with the procedure and guarantee efficiency and safety. 

Chimney Flue Repair

The chimney flue serves as a protective channel lining the chimney interior. Over time, chimney flues can deteriorate due to various factors such as moisture exposure, heat, and creosote buildup. Our team here at Chimneys Are Us, are experts when it comes to solving problems with chimney flues. We work with accuracy and expertise for all solutions. Our expert technicians use specialized techniques such as crack repair, flue relining, and section replacement to restore structural integrity and ensure safe fireplace operation. Trust us for honest, affordable, and reliable solutions.

Chimney Tuckpoint

Chimney tuckpointing involves repairing mortar joints in the chimney's brickwork. Over time, weather, and wear cause mortar deterioration.

At Chimneys Are Us, our skilled technicians carefully remove deteriorated mortar, replacing it with high-quality materials to restore your chimney's integrity. We guarantee appropriate structural reinforcement and sealing, protecting against water damage and improving longevity and aesthetics with attention to detail.
