Brooklyn’s older homes and row houses often hide creosote buildup in chimneys that can ignite at any time. Our chimney sweeps use rotating brushes and high-pressure air to dislodge tar, soot, and debris from every inch of your flue, including hard-to-reach bends and crowns. We don’t just clean; we inspect for cracks, rust, or blockages that could let carbon monoxide into your home. After every sweep, you’ll get a detailed report showing what we found and whether your chimney is safe for use. This isn’t just a cleaning, it’s a fire prevention service that Brooklyn homeowners rely on before the first cold snap.

Our dryer vent cleaning uses a motorized brush system to remove lint from the vent pipe, dryer trap, and even inside the wall, places where most DIY tools can’t reach. We also check for proper airflow and seal gaps that could let heat back into your laundry room. A clogged dryer vent isn’t just a waste of energy, it’s a hidden fire risk waiting to happen. Our service includes a post-cleaning test to confirm your dryer is running safely, and we’ll show you how to spot warning signs like longer drying times or a hot dryer exterior.
Request this service →Selling your Brooklyn home or renting it out? NYC requires a Level 2 chimney inspection before the sale or lease, and many lenders demand it for mortgages. Our inspections go beyond surface checks, we use a borescope camera to examine the flue liner, smoke chamber, and damper for corrosion, animal nests, or structural damage. We’ll flag any issues that could void your home warranty or lead to a lawsuit if a tenant or buyer gets hurt. Even if you’re not selling, an annual inspection catches problems early, like a cracked flue that could let carbon monoxide into your Prospect Heights or Park Slope home during winter.

We clean the combustion chamber, ash pan, and heat exchanger, then test the stove’s draft and ignition system. A poorly maintained stove can push creosote higher into the chimney, making it more likely to catch fire. Our service includes adjusting the damper for optimal airflow and checking the gaskets to prevent carbon monoxide leaks. If your stove is older or in a high-rise, we’ll also verify that the chimney connection meets NYC’s strict ventilation codes.
Request this service →Carbon monoxide from a cracked chimney or blocked vent is the silent killer in Brooklyn homes, especially in older buildings with shared chimneys. Our CO safety check includes testing your chimney for leaks with a specialized detector, then inspecting the flue for rust, gaps, or improper seals. We’ll also show you how to place CO detectors near bedrooms and on every floor of your home. NYC law requires them, but placement matters. If we find a leak, we’ll seal it immediately and recommend repairs before you light another fire. This isn’t just a test; it’s a lifesaver for families in Crown Heights or Bed-Stuy where heating systems are pushed to the limit in winter.

Our relining service replaces the corroded or collapsed sections of your vent pipe with a smooth, flexible liner that resists fire and improves airflow. We use a pull-through method to avoid tearing into your walls, and the new liner lasts for years without needing another replacement. This is the last step for homes where lint fires have been a recurring problem, or where the vent pipe is too old to safely clean. After relining, your dryer will run cooler, faster, and with far less risk of overheating, critical for Brooklyn apartments where space heaters and dryers are often overworked.
