Chimney and duct cleaning in Gloucester Township, NJ
Gloucester Township covers Blackwood, Glendora, Erial and a string of other communities, with 26,494 homes. Seven in ten were built in 1970 or later, many with factory-built fireplaces.
In brief
In Gloucester Township we inspect and sweep factory-built fireplaces, service gas and oil flues, and clean dryer vents and air ducts in houses and townhouses.
Factory-built fireplaces and chase covers
Most of Gloucester Township was built from the 1970s on, and the fireplaces in those houses are often factory-built, with a metal firebox and a metal flue running up a framed chase. Those systems hold up well when they are maintained, and the weak point is usually at the roof: a chase cover that rusts and holds water, a cap that loosens, or flashing around the chase that lets rain in. Gas heats about three quarters of households and electricity close to a fifth, while 962 still burn oil. Townhouses are about one home in six, and dryer vents that run to the roof are a regular call there.

Reviews from our Google listing
A selection of our 5-star reviews on Google.
A hundred years of lime mortar requires a careful, low-RPM touch, and that antique sensibility was obvious in the preservation-grade sweeping of our 1910 hearth.
Soot was cleaned from the flue lining with non-abrasive polymer heads, leaving the critical structural integrity of the ceramic glaze undamaged.
Before any damage to the fundamental integrity of the ceiling, we were able to fix the outside chimney leaks after identifying significant water damage behind the lead counter-flashing.
Gloucester Township questions
How far is Gloucester Township from your base?
About 82 miles from Bloomfield, so Camden County visits are booked on scheduled days. Call from 7 am to 9 pm to pick one, or book online at any hour.
Water is dripping into our fireplace when it rains. What is the likely cause?
In a factory-built system, often the chase cover or the flashing around the chase. We inspect from the firebox and the roof to find where the water gets in.
Can you replace a rusted chase cover?
Yes. We measure the chase and fit a new cover with a cap, sealed so water runs off instead of pooling.
