Chimney Sweep & Fireplace Service in Little Silver, NJ

If you use a wood-burning fireplace through the winter, an annual sweep keeps creosote from building up in the flue and helps the fireplace draw properly.

Scheduling a sweep and inspection before the heating season leaves time to handle repairs — a worn damper, cracked firebrick, or a rough smoke chamber — before you need the fireplace.

What you burn matters too. Dry, seasoned firewood burns hotter and cleaner; wet or green wood burns cool and smoky and leaves more creosote behind in the flue.
