Washington D.C. Chimney Sweep, Inspection, Relining & Repair

Inspections allow us to identify potential or existing problems before they become a threat to the safety or operation of your chimney. We offer three levels of inspection from routine surface-level checkups to emergency inspections after natural disasters.

Creosote and debris present a serious safety hazard to both your chimney structure and home. We use proven methods, quality materials, and decades of experience as a leading Washington D.C. chimney service to provide the best service and results for clients.

Once we perform an initial inspection and identify any issues or damage, we can determine which services your chimney needs and provide a repair estimate. In extreme cases where repair is not an option, your chimney may need a full tear-down and rebuild.

While the exterior brick is what most people see, the real work is done by the interior flue liners. Older lining is made of clay, which easily cracks and crumbles. Modern chimney liners are made with stainless steel, providing a more durable and air-tight pathway for smoke.

Smoke, debris, and weather conditions can break down your mortar, presenting problems both cosmetically and structurally. Our chimney repointing experts use cutting-edge tuckpointing techniques to restore your brickwork back to brand-new condition!

The biggest reason for flue damage and debris is the absence or malfunction of a flue cap. If your cap fails to block out rain, brick and mortar damage occurs as water seeps into the masonry and freezes. Schedule a flue cap installation or inspection to prevent buildup or water damage.
