Your chimney should work silently in the background, not fill your living room with smoke or leave you wondering if it’s safe. When your chimney is properly maintained, you get clean air, reliable heat, and peace of mind every time you light a fire.
A well-functioning chimney means no more worrying about creosote buildup that could spark a house fire. No more dealing with water leaks that damage your walls and ceiling. No more breathing smoke because your flue isn’t drawing properly.
You get a system that works the way it should—safely removing dangerous gases while keeping your home warm and comfortable throughout Long Island’s harsh winters.
We’ve been keeping Suffolk County homes safe for over 20 years. We’re the family-owned company your neighbors call when their chimney needs real attention—not just a quick sweep.
We know Long Island chimneys face unique challenges. Salt air corrodes caps and crowns. Harsh winters freeze and crack masonry. Heavy rains find every weak spot in your flashing. That’s why we don’t just clean—we inspect, diagnose, and fix problems before they become emergencies.
When you call us, you’re getting licensed, bonded, and insured professionals who live and work right here in Suffolk County. We understand what Moriches homeowners need because we are Moriches homeowners.
First, we inspect everything—from the crown to the damper to the firebox. We use specialized cameras to see inside your flue and identify issues that aren’t visible from ground level. No guesswork, no surprises.
Next, we clean thoroughly using professional-grade equipment that removes creosote, soot, and debris without making a mess in your home. We protect your furniture and floors while we work, then vacuum everything clean.
Finally, we handle any repairs on the spot when possible. Whether it’s a damaged cap, cracked crown, or failing flashing, we fix problems with quality materials that last. You get a detailed report of what we found and what we did, so you know exactly where you stand.

We handle every aspect of chimney maintenance and repair. Cleaning and inspection are just the beginning. We install and repair chimney caps, crowns, and liners. We fix masonry problems with expert tuckpointing. We waterproof and seal to prevent future water damage.
Long Island’s coastal climate is tough on chimneys. Salt air accelerates corrosion while freeze-thaw cycles crack masonry and mortar joints. Many Moriches homes built in the 1970s and 80s are reaching the age where original chimney components need attention.
We see the same problems repeatedly: deteriorating chimney caps that let water in, damaged flashing that causes interior leaks, and old clay liners that crack from thermal stress. The good news is we know how to fix these issues properly the first time, using materials designed for our coastal environment.
Most Moriches homeowners should have their chimney cleaned annually, but it depends on how much you use your fireplace. If you burn wood regularly throughout the winter, annual cleaning is essential to remove dangerous creosote buildup.
Gas fireplaces need less frequent cleaning but still require annual inspection. Even though gas burns cleaner than wood, debris can still accumulate and animals sometimes build nests that block proper ventilation.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends yearly inspections regardless of fuel type. Spring and summer are ideal times to schedule service—you’ll get better availability and often better pricing than waiting until fall when everyone remembers their chimney needs attention.
Call us right away if you see white staining on the outside of your chimney—that’s efflorescence, which means water is getting into the masonry. Rust on your damper or firebox is another red flag that moisture is causing damage.
Inside your home, watch for smoke entering the room when you use your fireplace, water stains on walls or ceiling near the chimney, or a strong odor coming from the fireplace even when it’s not in use. These problems won’t fix themselves and typically get worse quickly.
Damaged chimney caps or crowns are common issues we see in Suffolk County. If you notice pieces of masonry in your yard after storms, or if animals are getting into your chimney, those caps and crowns need professional attention before water causes serious structural damage.
Chimney cleaning in the Long Island area typically ranges from $150 to $400, depending on the condition of your chimney and what type of fireplace you have. A basic cleaning and inspection for a well-maintained chimney costs less than dealing with heavy creosote buildup or structural problems.
Gas fireplaces generally cost less to clean than wood-burning systems. If we find repairs are needed during cleaning, we’ll give you a detailed estimate before doing any additional work. We never surprise you with unexpected charges.
The real value isn’t in finding the cheapest price—it’s in getting thorough, professional service that actually keeps your family safe. Cheap cleanings often miss problems that turn into expensive repairs later. We’d rather do the job right the first time than have you call us back for an emergency.
Water is actually the number one enemy of chimneys in our area. Long Island’s coastal climate means your chimney faces rain, snow, salt air, and freeze-thaw cycles that can cause serious damage over time.
When water gets into chimney masonry, it causes the brick and mortar to deteriorate from the inside out. In winter, that water freezes and expands, creating cracks that let in even more water. It’s a cycle that accelerates once it starts, which is why early prevention is so important.
We see water damage most often around chimney caps, crowns, and flashing—the components designed to keep water out. When these fail, water runs down inside your chimney and can damage your home’s interior walls and ceilings. Proper waterproofing and regular maintenance prevent these expensive problems.
Yes, we handle chimney services for both residential homes and commercial properties throughout Suffolk County. Whether it’s a single-family home in Moriches or a multi-unit building, we have the experience and equipment to handle the job safely and professionally.
Commercial properties often have more complex chimney systems with multiple flues and different ventilation requirements. We’re familiar with commercial codes and regulations, and we can work around business schedules to minimize disruption to your operations.
Our residential services include everything from routine cleaning to complete chimney rebuilds. We work on all types of systems—wood-burning fireplaces, gas inserts, pellet stoves, and oil heating systems. No matter what type of chimney you have, we have the expertise to service it properly.
We’ve been serving Suffolk County families for over 20 years as a local, family-owned business. When you call us, you’re not getting a franchise or a company from out of state—you’re getting neighbors who understand Long Island’s unique climate challenges and building styles.
We’re fully licensed, bonded, and insured, which protects both you and us. More importantly, we stand behind our work with real warranties and we’re here if you need us later. We don’t disappear after the job is done like some contractors do.
The biggest difference is our approach. We don’t just clean chimneys—we solve chimney problems. If we find an issue during inspection, we explain what it means, why it happened, and what your options are. We give you the information you need to make smart decisions about your home’s safety and your budget.
