Chimney Cleaning
Professional chimney cleaning removes dangerous creosote buildup that causes 70% of chimney fires. Our technicians use industrial brushes and HEPA-filtered vacuums to clean from fireplace to cap. Annual maintenance prevents blockages, improves efficiency, and ensures proper ventilation for wood-burning appliances.
WETT Inspections
WETT-certified inspections evaluate chimney safety and compliance with Ontario Fire Code. Our technicians document clearances, structural integrity, and venting performance. Reports identify necessary repairs and include photographic evidence for insurance purposes or property transactions.
Blockage Removal
We remove animal nests and debris blockages using specialized augers and camera inspections. Our technicians address recurring issues by installing stainless steel caps that prevent re-entry while maintaining proper draft.
Chimney Caps
Custom-fitted chimney caps prevent water intrusion and animal entry. Our galvanized steel caps feature mesh screens that maintain airflow while protecting masonry from weather damage and extending chimney lifespan.
Damper Repair
We replace faulty dampers with Lock-Top models that improve energy efficiency by 25%. These airtight dampers prevent heat loss and cold air infiltration while maintaining easy operation through fireplace handles.
