Flue Diagnostics
Mechanical Clearing
Mess-free rotary chimney sweep
SnapLok rotary whips scour combustible creosote from clay and steel flues while industrial triple-HEPA vacuums ensure zero airborne soot enters your living quarters.
NFPA 211 Compliance
Level 1 and 2 video camera scoping
Motorized closed-circuit infrared cameras travel the full vertical stack, documenting hidden mortar voids, cracked clay tiles, and hidden clearance hazards before transfer or burn season.
Hardened Deposits
Stage-three creosote glaze removal
Chemical PCR neutralizers break down stubborn tar-like creosote glaze that standard nylon bristles cannot dislodge, eliminating chimney flare-up risks before the winter freeze.
Stack Restoration
Masonry repairs and weather protection
Coastal salt air and freezing Atlantic moisture deteriorate New England mortar joints. We restore physical stability and install lifetime stainless chimney armor.
Tuckpointing & crown rebuilds
UL-listed stainless flue relining
Caps and top-sealing dampers
Type-N mortar joint repointing and fiber-reinforced concrete crown pouring prevent water intrusion into internal structural timbers.
Continuous 316Ti stainless steel liners installed inside damaged masonry flues restore draft integrity for wood, oil, and gas appliances.
Multi-flue stainless spark arrestor hoods block coastal rain and nesting birds, while silicone rubber dampers seal out draft loss.
Service Standards
Our four-stage job protocol
Containment & floor protection
Full-height baseline camera scan
Bi-directional rotary cleaning
Signed condition report
Homeowners receive a timestamped photo log and NFPA safety sign-off documenting structural clearances and operating health.
Dual heavy-grade canvas drop cloths and negative-pressure containment barriers seal the hearth perimeter before any tooling is unboxed.
A high-resolution optical sweep evaluates the smoke chamber, firebox bricks, damper track, and flue lining condition.
Targeted mechanical whips clean creosote down to the bare masonry or steel wall while industrial dust collectors capture all fine particulate.
