Chimney Inspections
Our Level 2 chimney inspections use closed-circuit video technology to examine your entire system. Technicians check for cracks, voids, and creosote buildup while providing real-time visual feedback. Each inspection includes a written report with photographic documentation of findings. Regular evaluations help prevent costly repairs by identifying issues like water damage, animal intrusion, or flue liner deterioration early.
Dryer Vent Services
Professional dryer vent cleaning eliminates fire hazards caused by lint accumulation. We address design flaws in new construction installations and re-route inefficient systems. Our services improve appliance efficiency while reducing energy costs. Technicians clean vents thoroughly from interior connections to exterior terminations, ensuring optimal airflow and safety for residential properties.
Chimney Repairs
We specialize in tuckpointing, crown repairs, and flue liner replacements using industry-approved materials. Our team addresses water damage, structural instability, and masonry deterioration. Services include pressure washing to remove stains and mold while restoring chimney aesthetics. Emergency repair options are available for urgent structural concerns or weather-related damage.
Gas Log Sets
We install and service high-efficiency gas log systems for residential fireplaces. Our technicians ensure proper venting configurations and gas line connections. Services include burner assembly maintenance, ceramic fiber log replacements, and ignition system diagnostics. We offer UL-listed components that maintain safety standards while enhancing fireplace functionality.

Questions
How often should chimneys be inspected?
The Chimney Safety Institute recommends annual inspections for regularly used systems. Less frequently used chimneys should be checked every 2-3 years to detect potential issues early.
What causes chimney odors?
Persistent smells often indicate creosote buildup, water intrusion, or animal activity. Our technicians identify and resolve odor sources through cleaning, repairs, or ventilation improvements.
Do you offer emergency services?
Yes, we provide emergency appointments for urgent chimney issues like structural damage or safety hazards. Contact us directly for immediate assistance.
Can I use fireplace gas logs year-round?
Gas logs can be used anytime, but annual inspections ensure safe operation. Our technicians verify proper venting and component functionality during seasonal checkups.
How do video inspections work?
We insert a specialized camera into your flue to capture real-time footage of internal components. This allows immediate identification of cracks, blockages, or deterioration during service calls.
What payment options are available?
We accept major credit cards and offer financing options for larger repair projects. Payment plans can be arranged through our customer service team.

Cody finished his early job and called to see if the appointment could be move up an hour earlier. Cody and his helper arrived and listened to my thoughts and began surveying the job. They began work showed me pictures of the lint buildup in the dryer vent and showed me pictures once the work was completed. Pleased with the work, excellent communications and professional workers. Price was as originally quoted.

I found Lords Chimney after trying two other companies who failed to fully clean my clogged dryer vent. Lords Chimney is very well organized and professional. Their technician kept me informed at each step of the process. The overall experience was excellent. Highly recommended.

Was very pleased. Moved into a new home a couple of years ago and while the fireplace passed just fine during inspection, for some reason (call it instinct) I was a bit skeptical. Very glad I trusted my instincts. Cody performed a full inspection including the top of the chimney which had a partial brick that was crumbling. He explained to me how water was getting in at the very top. He explained all my options other than rebuilding the entire fireplace/chimney and came up with a plan. Ever so grateful for his expertise and was never baffled by any of my questions. He showed me photos of everything
