New York’s old brick homes and modern condos share one thing: if your chimney isn’t swept at least once a year, you’re risking a creosote fire. Our crew uses rotary brushes and vacuum systems to pull out even the toughest buildup, then inspects your flue for rust, blockages, or gaps that let carbon monoxide seep into your home. We won’t just tell you it’s clean, we’ll show you the before-and-after. And because NYC building codes demand it, we’ll give you a written report so you’re covered if an inspector asks. Pricing starts at $120 for a standard sweep, but if we find hidden issues like a collapsed liner, we’ll explain the fix before we bill.
Request this service →Every year, dryer lint causes hundreds of house fires in New York, especially in older buildings where vents snake through walls and attics. Our team uses a high-powered vacuum to suck out lint from the vent inside your home and the exterior pipe, then checks for sharp bends or crushed ducts that restrict airflow. A clogged vent doesn’t just waste energy, it overheats your dryer, damages the motor, and turns lint into a slow-burning fuse. We’ll also show you how to clean the lint trap properly (most people do it wrong). Pricing depends on vent length, but a typical New York apartment runs $90–$150, and we include a warranty against re-clogging for 90 days.

Our Level 2 inspections (the gold standard) include a video scan of your entire chimney, so you see exactly what needs fixing. We’ve caught $5,000+ repair jobs hidden in ‘move-in ready’ listings. For sellers, a clean inspection report boosts your home’s value and speeds up the sale. Inspections start at $180, and we’ll explain repairs in plain terms, no jargon.
Request this service →That new wood stove you installed in your Queens bungalow? If the chimney isn’t sized right or lined properly, you’re risking a backdraft that sends smoke into your living room, or worse, carbon monoxide poisoning. We install stainless-steel liners where needed, check for proper clearance from combustible walls, and ensure the stove’s draft is strong enough to pull air up the chimney. Many New York homes with wood stoves haven’t been swept since they moved in. We’ll clean the stove pipe too, so you’re not breathing in soot every time you light up. Service starts at $150, and we’ll tell you if your stove needs adjustments.
Request this service →You can’t see carbon monoxide, but it’s in your New York home right now if your chimney has gaps, a cracked flue, or a blocked vent. Our CO test uses a handheld detector to pinpoint leaks, then we seal cracks with high-temp mortar or replace damaged sections. We’ve found CO leaks in homes where the previous owner swore ‘everything was fine’, just because you don’t smell gas doesn’t mean it’s not there. Testing adds $50 to a sweep, but it’s the difference between a safe winter and an ER visit. If we find a leak, we’ll give you a priority repair quote the same day.
Request this service →If you’re a property manager in Manhattan or a laundromat owner in the Bronx, you know the drill: the city inspector shows up unannounced, and your vents fail. Our team cleans vents in commercial buildings with long runs and multiple units, using industrial-grade tools to reach every inch. We’ll also install vent covers to keep lint out between cleanings and provide a certificate of compliance for your records. Pricing scales with unit count, but a 10-unit building starts at $450. We’ve helped landlords avoid $2,000+ fines by catching hidden blockages before an inspection.
