Your fireplace should bring comfort, not concern. When we’re done with your chimney, you’ll light fires knowing your family is protected from dangerous creosote buildup, carbon monoxide leaks, and structural damage.
No more wondering if that smell is normal. No more worrying about whether last year’s cleaning was thorough enough. No more crossing your fingers every time you strike a match.
You get a chimney system that works exactly like it should – safely removing smoke and gases while keeping your home warm and your family healthy throughout Long Island’s harsh winters.
We’ve been serving Smithtown and the surrounding Suffolk County area for years. We understand the unique challenges Long Island chimneys face – from humidity-related spaling to the freeze-thaw cycles that crack mortar joints.
Our technicians know these problems because we live here too. We’ve seen what happens when homeowners wait too long for repairs, and we’ve helped countless families avoid expensive emergencies by catching issues early.
When you call us, you’re getting neighbors who care about keeping your home safe and your heating bills reasonable.
We start with a thorough inspection of your entire chimney system – from the firebox to the crown. Our certified technicians check for creosote buildup, structural damage, and proper ventilation using professional-grade equipment.
Next, we clean everything that needs cleaning and repair anything that’s compromised. This includes removing dangerous creosote deposits, fixing damaged mortar joints, and ensuring your chimney cap and flashing are watertight.
Finally, we test the system to make sure smoke and gases are venting properly. You’ll get a clear explanation of what we found, what we fixed, and when you should schedule your next service. No surprises, no pressure – just honest information you can use to make smart decisions about your home.

We handle everything your chimney needs: professional cleaning and sweeping, structural repairs, liner installation, cap and crown work, and masonry restoration. Whether you need routine maintenance or emergency repairs, we have the tools and expertise to get it done right.
Smithtown’s coastal climate means your chimney deals with salt air, humidity, and temperature swings that can accelerate wear and tear. We use materials and techniques specifically chosen for Long Island conditions, so your repairs last longer and perform better.
Our service includes a complete safety inspection with every visit. We check for carbon monoxide risks, fire hazards, and structural issues that could affect your home’s safety or value. You’ll know exactly where your chimney stands and what it needs to keep protecting your family.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends annual chimney inspections for all homeowners, and most Smithtown chimneys need cleaning at least once per year. However, if you use your fireplace frequently during Long Island’s long winter season, you might need more frequent service.
The timing matters too. Spring and summer are ideal for chimney work because we can spot and fix problems before the heating season starts. This prevents you from discovering issues when you need your fireplace most.
We recommend scheduling your annual service by early fall at the latest. This gives us time to handle any repairs before cold weather arrives, and it means you won’t be competing with last-minute appointments when everyone suddenly remembers their chimney needs attention.
Call us right away if you notice white staining on your chimney exterior, rust on the damper or firebox, or a strong odor coming from your fireplace even when it’s not in use. These often indicate water damage or structural problems that can worsen quickly.
Other urgent signs include smoke entering your room instead of going up the chimney, animals or birds in your fireplace, or pieces of mortar or brick around your chimney base. These issues can create safety hazards and should be addressed before you use your fireplace again.
If you see cracks in your chimney crown or notice that your chimney cap is damaged or missing, don’t wait. Suffolk County’s weather can turn minor problems into major repairs very quickly, especially during freeze-thaw cycles.
Professional chimney cleaning in Smithtown typically ranges from basic cleaning services to comprehensive inspection and cleaning packages, depending on your chimney’s condition and what services you need. The investment is minimal compared to the cost of fire damage or emergency repairs.
Several factors affect pricing: the size and height of your chimney, how long it’s been since your last cleaning, whether repairs are needed, and the level of inspection required. We provide clear, upfront pricing so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Remember that regular maintenance actually saves money over time. Annual cleaning prevents expensive problems like damaged liners, structural repairs, or fire damage. Most homeowners find that consistent care costs much less than waiting for problems to develop.
We don’t recommend using your fireplace if it’s been more than a year since your last professional cleaning and inspection. Creosote buildup is highly flammable and can cause chimney fires, while blockages can send dangerous gases back into your home.
Even if your chimney looks fine from the outside, problems often develop inside where you can’t see them. Cracked liners, damaged dampers, or animal nests can create serious safety hazards that only become apparent during a professional inspection.
If you’re unsure about your chimney’s condition, have it inspected before lighting any fires. It’s a small investment that could prevent a house fire or carbon monoxide poisoning. Your family’s safety is worth more than the cost of a professional inspection.
Yes, we provide chimney services throughout the year in Smithtown and all of Suffolk County. While most homeowners think about chimney care in fall, spring and summer are actually the best times for major repairs and maintenance work.
Summer appointments offer several advantages: better weather for roof work, no rush to complete repairs before you need heat, and often better availability for scheduling. You can take your time making decisions about repairs instead of feeling pressured by approaching cold weather.
We also handle emergency calls during the heating season. If you discover a problem with your chimney during winter, don’t try to fix it yourself or continue using a damaged system. Call us for safe, professional emergency service that gets your fireplace working properly again.
We focus exclusively on doing the job right the first time, using certified technicians and professional-grade equipment for every service call. Our inspections are thorough, our repairs use quality materials designed for Long Island’s climate, and we explain everything in plain language.
Unlike companies that use high-pressure sales tactics or try to sell unnecessary services, we give you honest assessments and practical recommendations. If your chimney doesn’t need work, we’ll tell you. If it does, we’ll explain exactly why and what your options are.
We’re also local to the Smithtown area, so we understand the specific challenges Suffolk County chimneys face. We’ve built our reputation on reliable service, fair pricing, and treating every home like it’s our own. Our goal is to become your trusted chimney service for years to come.
