Our Full Range of Atlanta Chimney Services
Chimney Sweep & Cleaning
Annual creosote removal, soot extraction, and full visual safety check. Most Atlanta homes need this once per year — every 80 fires for active wood burners.
Chimney Inspection (Level 1, 2, 3)
From annual safety checks to deep camera diagnosis. Level 2 inspections required for Atlanta home sales and after any chimney fire or major weather event.
Chimney Repair
Tuckpointing, crown rebuild, cap replacement, masonry restoration. Critical in Atlanta given the humidity stress on mortar and brick.
Chimney Liner Installation
Stainless steel liner systems for safety, efficiency, and code compliance. Required for many Atlanta pre-1980 homes with deteriorated clay tile flues.
Fireplace Service & Repair
Gas valve replacement, refractory panel repair, firebox restoration, damper service. Whether wood, gas, or pellet.
Dryer Vent Cleaning
Often overlooked, but the #1 home fire prevention service. NFPA recommends annual cleaning — especially in humid Atlanta climate where lint compacts faster.
