Our extraordinary level of quality has made us the chimney company Foxborough, MA and all other towns along 495 come to for all their chimney needs. Some of the services we provide are listed below. If you don't see a service you are looking for, just ask us! If it's chimney-related, we can most likely help you. We provide the following chimney services:

Inspections:

We will determine if your current chimney system meets current NFPA 211 codes and safety standards. We can provide Level I, II and III chimney inspections. A level one inspection is performed when a chimney cleaning is done.

Chimney Sweeping:

Removal of dangerous creosote, soot, and debris buildup inside your chimney. As the top chimney company Natick, MA and all of Metro West relies on, we are ready to protect your home with our professional chimney services. Sweeping the flue will also help us determine how well the structural integrity of the flue lining inside the chimney is.

Chimney Caps:

Professional sales and installation of HY-C and Gelco chimney caps. Many standard sizes are available. Custom stainless and copper chimney caps can be special ordered.

Wood, Pellet, Gas, and Coal Stove Installation:

Professional installation of your new appliance. We follow all local and national codes and standards (NFPA211), We hold a Construction Supervisors License which is required by the state of Massachusetts to install solid fuel burning appliances. See our stove page for more information.

Video Scanning:

Closed circuit video inspections of the interior of your chimney and flues. Typically, a video scan is done during a level II chimney inspection or real estate inspection to determine if the chimney and flues are suitable for venting the appliance that is connected to them. 

Crown Repairs:

Over time, rain, snow, and ice can damage chimney crowns. Moisture causes the chimney crown to crack and deteriorate, allowing water to penetrate the inside of the chimney. We can repair and seal your chimney crown with Chimney Saver Crown Seal. If the damage to the crown is more extensive, we may determine that it needs the old crown removed and a new mortar crown rebuilt.

Waterproofing:

Protect the exterior bricks and mortar of your chimney with Chimney Saver water-repellent. Chimney Saver carries a 10-year warranty on its application.

Damper Replacement or Repair:

If your current damper is damaged or not sealing correctly, we can install an energy saving top sealing damper on top of your fireplace flue. These dampers will prevent cold downdrafts, in the colder months, from coming down the flue and prevent your air conditioning from escaping up the flue, in the warmer months, because of the gasket seal on the damper.

Emergency Appointments:

Heat shut off by your heating company? Has a raccoon decided to make your chimney it's home? We provide same day appointments for an emergency service call.

Animal Removal Services from Chimney in Eastern MA and RI

Do you hear birds chirping, scratching inside the fireplace or other noises coming from the chimney? Chances are you may have an animal or bird problem.

Raccoons and other animals such as squirrels, bats, and birds can take up residence in your chimney. Birds may build a nest in the spring. This may sound cute at first, but it's actually a hazard. Bird and bat droppings inside the chimney can lead to histoplasmosis - a bird disease. While raccoons can carry fleas and the rabies disease, they also may end up perishing inside your chimney.

The best way to prevent unwanted guests is with a stainless steel or copper chimney cap for the top of your chimney. The cap not only keeps rain out but also has a built-in screen around it. This prevents any critters from making your chimney their home.

A bird or squirrel can build a nest in a chimney, sometimes big enough to block the proper venting of the system. If the nest is built into the furnace chimney, this could lead to Carbon monoxide poisoning. So, every chimney should have a chimney cap and every home should have a CO2 detector.
