Chimney Cleaning

Winter in Long Beach is long and hard, the housing stock is old, and many chimneys predate modern liner standards entirely. This is what we actually find here, and what we check on every visit.
Water enters mortar joints and crown cracks across Long Beach, freezes hard, expands and pries the masonry apart a little further with every cycle. By late winter the evidence is spalling brick, open joints and leaks that were hairlines back in the fall.
Generations of Long Beach homes heated with oil, then gas, and those appliance flues live inside the same chimney as the fireplace. Oil soot, acidic condensate and cracked tiles degrade those liners quietly, and a failing appliance flue is a safety problem, not a detail.
Some older New York chimneys were built with no liner at all, and others carry liners that stop short or crack at the joints. Hot gases and sparks reach mortar and framing through those gaps, so the camera inspection comes before the first fire, not after.
A tall exterior chimney in a Long Beach January holds a column of heavy cold air that sinks into the room between fires, carrying creosote smell with it and making the first fire smoky. A clean flue, sound damper and right cap solve most of it.

Once a year at minimum for a fireplace in regular use - and after about every cord of wood burned, whichever comes first. Long Beach fireplaces work for months in a cold flue, and creosote builds steadily the whole season. The sweep and inspection together are the safety check.
Usually a cold flue. A tall masonry chimney in Long Beach holds heavy cold air that pushes down until a fire warms the flue, so the first minutes spill smoke. Creosote narrowing, a stuck damper or a missing cap make it worse. We check the whole path before suggesting fixes.
Yes - in many Long Beach homes the furnace, boiler or water heater vents through its own flue in the shared stack, and oil and gas liners crack, soot up and block with age. A blocked appliance flue can spill exhaust indoors, so we inspect every flue in the chimney.
Often ice and flashing working together: ice dams push meltwater against the chimney, flashing loosened by freeze-thaw lets it in, and saturated brick passes it through to the wall. The stain shows by the fireplace, but the repair belongs at the roofline and the crown, in that order.
