Serving homeowners across Connecticut
We handle the calls that start with smoke rolling back into the room, a damp stain beside the chimney, a gas fireplace that won't light, or a dryer that needs two cycles.
Our services
Most fireplace work starts with a clean flue and a clear look at its condition. That might mean chimney cleaning and creosote removal, a cap or crown repair, a new liner, or gas fireplace repair when the pilot or burner is acting up.
Professional chimney sweeping for fireplaces, inserts and wood stoves, with the flue, smoke chamber and firebox cleaned and checked. Free estimates and same-day visits where the schedule allows.
Repair for fireplace dampers that stick, rust, rattle or no longer seal, with honest advice on when replacement makes more sense.
Firebox, damper, smoke chamber, door glass, draft and gas or electric unit repairs, starting with a free estimate.
Repair and maintenance for gas fireplaces: pilots, ignition, burners, logs, glass and controls, with emergency calls taken 24 hours, Sunday through Friday.
Cleaning, inspection, repair and rerouting for home dryer vents, with a plain-English look at how the duct works and when it needs help.
A top-to-bottom look at your chimney, flue, liner and fireplace, with camera review where needed, so you know what is safe and what needs work.
Full and partial brick chimney rebuilds, finished with a new crown, liner connection and cap. Free estimates.

Common problems
If you're not sure what to ask for, start with what you're noticing. A fireplace that smokes into the room, water coming in around the chimney, and heavy creosote buildup in the flue each have a few usual causes. Knowing them makes it easier to describe the problem when you call.
