Chimney Cleaning
Annual chimney cleaning prevents fire hazards and carbon monoxide risks by removing creosote buildup and debris. Our CSIA-certified technicians inspect flues, crowns, and flashing during each service. We use HEPA-filter vacuums to ensure no mess while maintaining efficiency for wood, gas, and pellet systems.
Masonry Repairs
We specialize in tuck pointing, chimney crown rebuilding, and smoke chamber parging to restore structural integrity. Our masons match existing mortar aesthetics while preventing water damage. Services include firebox rebuilds and waterproofing treatments to extend chimney lifespan in Maryland's climate.
Gas Appliance Maintenance
Our 29-point inspection covers glass cleaning, burner maintenance, and carbon monoxide checks for gas fireplaces and stoves. We service major brands like Heatilator and Desa while keeping replacement parts in stock. Annual maintenance ensures safe operation and prevents costly repairs.
Chimney Relining
We install stainless steel liners and repair damaged clay systems to prevent heat transfer and gas leaks. Our technicians address cracked crowns and deteriorating flashing that cause water infiltration. Relining services meet local building codes and manufacturer requirements for all fuel types.
Pellet Stove Maintenance

Have had an excellent experience with this company so far and would recommend them above any other hearth and chimney place I've dealt with locally. Glenn in the showroom has been very responsive and helpful with getting my stove and the installation by Bryan and Mike was top notch. Everyone from beginning to end has been extremely helpful and courteous...I can't speak highly enough of the staff. Thank you Glenn, Bryan and Mike!!

Brian and Mike arrived at the top of the delivery window and got straight to work. They were respectful of my home by taking off shoes, applying drop cloths, etc. Brian explained all of what they would do and updated me on things they found during the cleaning. Working together they were fast and efficient while offering options that would allow me to work my fireplaces more easily. I appreciated them taking time to educate me on off-season maintenance and other tips for maintaining my units.

Bryan Santos and Mike did an excellent job with my wood insert fireplace today. They took extra care keeping my new rug near the fireplace clean and removed their shoes when entering the house. Also I received pictures of the inside of my cleaned fireplace. Bryan who is a valuable and knowledgeable employee gave me helpful instructions on the care of my fireplace. Magic Broom is the only place I use for my fireplace cleaning and the great friendly service is a plus.

I used magic broom to clean and inspect my chimney. They showed up on time. They completed the service quickly and didn't leave a mess. Afterwards they sat down to go over everything in great detail with photos and I also have everything in my email. I would use them again.
