Repairs & maintenance
A fireplace and flue must be properly maintained to keep your home safe and heating at full potential. We repair, clean and replace the parts that have seen better days — restoring airflow, performance and efficiency.
Chimney sweeping
Creosote is the flammable substance that builds up in every working chimney. Clearing it yearly is essential to keeping your home safe and your fire drawing properly.
We use the best techniques and equipment to clean and inspect your chimney properly — and our sweepers are fully insured and licensed. Book an annual sweep and keep your whole chimney system in excellent condition.
