Chimney Installations And Repairs

A residential masonry chimney is normally constructed of common masonry and metal chimney materials – usually brick, mortar, concrete, concrete block, stone, flue tile, steel and iron. All masonry chimneys contain combinations of (or possibly all of) these materials, most residential chimney products can be adversely affected by cold, heat, snow or water. We always recommend annual chimney sweeps, regular chimney cleanings, flue cleanings, fireplace cleanings and or woodstove cleanings by a certified chimney sweep who will use a professional grade creosote cleaner to reduce the risk of a chimney fire. Our chimney maintenance, inspection and cleaning services can usually find and repair chimney damage to any part of your fireplace pipe, freestanding wood burning stove pipe or regular, ordinary chimney. Whether your brick chimney needs repointing, or you need chimney maintenance repairs for broken mortar or loose bricks, or a repair of a leaking chimney chase crown, torn chimney flashing, a broken flue liner or other chimney or flue problems – we’ve got your covered. But! If chimney service and repairs are no longer an option, we will discuss the steps of a full chimney removal and then the new chimney installation prices and chimney replacement costs. 

 

Choosing to have a new residential chimney installed in your home is a big decision. Therefore, we suggest always reaching out to a few chimney service contractors near you before you pick a professional chimney installation company or contractor. This will help make sure that you choose the right local chimney company for the chimney service job you need. A new residential chimney or commercial can get pricey. There are a lot of steps involved. To avoid some of these compounding home chimney prices, certified chimney sweeps like us will always recommend regular chimney inspections, routine chimney maintenance, chimney sweeps and of course, calling the best chimney sweep in your town. Which we believe is Expressway! After all, we have been taking care of chimneys for over 2 decades. So, if you have a question about chimney inspection costs, or chimney sweep prices, or what level of fireplace chimney inspection and cleaning you need – please reach out to us. We are here to help!

Chimney Maintenance Is Essential

Blocked chimneys can cause chimney fires or carbon monoxide to build up in your room and these can be fatal. Anytime wood is burned in a fireplace, soot and creosote are produced. Soot is made up of fine, black carbon particles and creosote is an oily, flammable liquid tar. These by-products cling to the inside of a chimney and can cause a chimney fire.

 

We recommend that chimneys and wood burning fireplaces be serviced annually and cleaned regularly to ensure safe and efficient operation to reduce danger and smoke output.
