Services
Chimney Cleaning
Our chimney cleaning service removes dangerous creosote buildup and soot deposits using industrial HEPA-filtered vacuums and rotating brush systems. This essential maintenance prevents chimney fires, improves drafting efficiency, and ensures safe venting of combustion gases. We follow CSIA-recommended protocols for both wood-burning and gas fireplace systems.
Chimney Liners
We install stainless steel chimney liners that meet UL 1777 safety standards for improved venting performance. Our technicians custom-fit corrosion-resistant liners to restore proper flue function and comply with modern building codes for both residential and commercial properties.
Chimney Leak Repair
Our leak repair service addresses water intrusion through damaged flashing, cracked masonry, or deteriorated crowns. We use silicone-based sealants and copper flashing systems to create watertight barriers that prevent structural damage and mold growth in chimney systems.
Fireplace Services
We provide comprehensive fireplace cleaning, damper replacement, and refractory panel installation services. Our technicians ensure proper fireplace function through Level 1 and Level 2 inspections that meet National Fire Protection Association standards.
Commercial Chimney Services
Our commercial division handles large-scale chimney inspections, cleanings, and repairs for restaurants, hotels, and industrial facilities. We maintain compliance with NFPA 211 requirements through scheduled maintenance programs and detailed service documentation.

Professional cleaning removes hazardous creosote buildup, prevents chimney fires, and ensures proper airflow. Our HEPA-filtered systems eliminate 99.97% of particles, improving indoor air quality and fireplace efficiency.
How often should chimneys be inspected?
Annual inspections are recommended by the Chimney Safety Institute of America. Frequent users or properties with wood-burning systems may require bi-annual checks to maintain safety certifications.
Do you handle commercial chimney systems?
Yes, we service restaurants, hotels, and industrial facilities with specialized equipment for high-volume systems. Our team complies with NFPA 211 commercial chimney standards.
What causes chimney odors?
Persistent smells typically indicate creosote accumulation, animal intrusion, or water damage. Our Level 2 inspections use video scanning to identify and resolve odor sources permanently.
Can you repair chimney structural issues?
Our CSIA-certified technicians handle masonry restoration, crown repairs, and foundation reinforcement using ASTM-compliant materials to meet local building codes.

Less than one year after hiring these guys my Belgian block is falling off and my driveway has more cracks in it than I can count. Overpriced considering that in the long run the work they did was garbage. Tried calling them to come take a look and rectify this and they never even showed up when they said they would .Thanks for nothing guys

Ron and his team did an amazing job on our chimney. They rebuilt the upper half of the chimney, installed a new chimney liner and cap and flashing. This company is very professional. I would highly recommend.

We had several Chimney companies give us an estimate for repairing our chimney. Nick, by far, was the most knowledgeable, and explained in great detail the work they would do for us. Nick picked up on a shortcoming in our boiler system, which I knew about, but no other chimney company mention this. Ageless Chimney quote was professional and detailed. They were the only company to call and follow up with us, as well. Their office crew was very courteous and helpful. I proceeded with hiring them to do the work. Nick and his crew were meticulous, hardworking, and did a superb job. Nick and the crew

We recently used Ageless to install a liner for our chimney. We were happy with the work Charlie and Christian did, as well as the professional manner they did business in. It's nice to work with a company that shows up when they are supposed to, does the work they say they will do, and does such at a fair price. I would certainly recommend their services.

Just had Ageless (Nick and Brian) come and install a new chimney liner and chimney cap, and rebuild flashing. Super personable, friendly and very helpful in explaining the process and giving suggestions for the future, as well as being kind and patient with the 200 questions we posed. They were professional and respectful of my home and cleaned up meticulously. I was beyond impressed with their work, and would highly recommend them for any of your chimney needs.
