Chimney and duct cleaning in Pennsauken Township, NJ
Pennsauken Township sits on the Delaware River across from Philadelphia, with 13,653 homes. More than half were built before 1960, and 28.4 percent date from the 1950s alone.
In brief
In Pennsauken we sweep and inspect the chimneys of postwar single-family houses, service their gas and oil flues, and clean dryer vents and ducts.
Postwar houses by the river
Pennsauken built a large share of its housing in the 1950s, and many of its streets are lined with houses from those years with a brick chimney serving a fireplace, a furnace or both. After seventy years, the crowns, caps and clay liners of those chimneys are where our work usually starts. Gas heats about three quarters of the township, electricity about a sixth, and 557 households still burn oil. Close to eight homes in ten are single-family houses, detached or attached, so most chimneys here belong to one household.

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.
