Chimney & Dryer Vent FAQ

How often should a chimney be swept or inspected?

The National Fire Protection Association recommends having chimneys inspected once a year, and cleaned as needed.

​

How do I know my dryer vent needs cleaning?

Common signs are clothes that take longer to dry, a hot dryer or laundry room, and a burning smell. Stop using the dryer if you smell burning, and have the vent checked.

Repair Photos

Our chimney camera can show cracks and open mortar joints inside the flue liner that you can't see from the ground. When a chimney cap or chase cover is rusted or damaged, we replace it with a new one, as shown in these photos.
