Brooklyn’s chimneys take a beating from hardwood fires, damp winters, and years of neglect. Our sweeps don’t just clear soot, they inspect for cracks, blockages, and weak mortar that could let carbon monoxide into your home. We use brushes and vacuums rated for heavy-duty cleaning, and our inspections include a camera scope to spot hidden damage. Most homeowners wait too long, letting creosote harden into a flammable tar. We stop that before it starts. Pricing starts at $120 for basic sweeps, but the real value is the peace of mind knowing your chimney’s safe for another heating season, especially critical in Brooklyn, where old brick homes hide surprises.

Stage 3 creosote, the hardest form, looks like black, tarry bricks and burns like kindling. We use high-powered vacuums and specialized tools to break it down without damaging your flue. After cleaning, we’ll show you exactly where the buildup was worst and how to adjust your burning habits to slow it down. Many Brooklyn homeowners don’t realize their fireplace is a ticking time bomb until we find thick creosote deposits. We also repair minor cracks and reline flues when needed, so your chimney lasts decades. Expect to pay $150–$300 for creosote removal, but it’s far cheaper than a chimney fire repair.

We install durable stainless steel liners that last 30+ years and meet all NYC building codes. Brooklyn’s older row houses often have original clay tiles that crack over time, letting smoke and CO into living spaces. Our relining process includes a full inspection to ensure proper draft and clearance. Prices vary by chimney height and complexity, but the investment pays off in safety and efficiency. We’ll never upsell you on work you don’t need, but if your chimney’s past its prime, relining is the only way to future-proof it.

Lint builds up faster in humid NYC winters, and a blocked vent can overheat in minutes. We use a motorized rotary brush to clear vents completely, including the ductwork behind walls. Unlike quick vacuum jobs, we inspect for sharp bends, crushed ducts, or rodent nests that trap lint. A clean vent saves you money on energy bills and eliminates that musty smell from damp clothes. Pricing starts at $90 for basic cleaning, but the real value is knowing your dryer won’t become a fire risk, especially important in older buildings where vents are often neglected.

Our maintenance plan locks in two sweeps per year at a discounted rate, plus a priority booking slot so you’re never waiting during peak season. We’ll also email you a custom report after each visit, highlighting any changes in your chimney’s condition. Brooklyn’s unpredictable winters mean some homeowners fire up their chimneys early or late, both times when creosote risks spike. For $200 annually, you get peace of mind, a safer home, and the convenience of a scheduled visit. It’s the only way to ensure your chimney stays in top shape without the stress of last-minute bookings.
Request this service →Carbon monoxide is odorless and deadly, yet many Brooklyn homeowners don’t test for it until it’s too late. We offer on-site CO testing using a calibrated detector, checking for leaks from your chimney, furnace, or even nearby gas lines. If we find elevated levels, we’ll pinpoint the source and recommend fixes, whether it’s sealing a crack in your flue or upgrading your ventilation. Testing takes 10 minutes and costs $50, but it could save your family. We see cases every year where homeowners assume their chimney is fine, only to discover a slow leak during a routine sweep. Don’t wait for symptoms, test now.
