Honest good working local company. The amount they quoted me on the phone was the price I paid after the service was completed.
Chimney and duct work in Essex County, NJ
Essex County is home ground: the van is based in Bloomfield and four of the thirty-eight towns we cover are in this county. It is also the county whose housing sets the tone for everything else we do, because so much of it went up before the Second World War and has been through two changes of fuel since.

The short answer
Brushwork, surveys, repairs and laundry ducts throughout the county, and on housing of this age nothing goes up a shaft before a camera has been down it.
What we find across Essex County
One finding dominates and it is structural rather than dirty: a flue considerably wider than whatever now vents into it. A chimney built to carry coal smoke, handed an oil burner mid-century and a gas boiler later, is venting an appliance producing a fraction of the volume and a fraction of the heat — so the exhaust cools, condenses before it reaches the top, and the acidic condensate works on the mortar joints from inside. Years later it surfaces as white staining on the outside of the stack, brick faces beginning to flake, or a boiler that has become reluctant to start. What follows is steel cut to the boiler rather than to whatever hole it inherited — and more often than not that is the change that gives people back a chimney which actually draws, rather than one that has merely stopped deteriorating.

Expert setup, high-powered vacuums, and absolutely no dust residue. Excellent work.
Water had been leaking around the chimney flashing, but the repair solved it completely. The crew sealed and reinforced the affected area with precision. Rain is no longer a concern. The workmanship looks strong and durable.
Questions from Essex County
Which Essex County towns do you cover?
Bloomfield, East Orange, Newark and Irvington have pages of their own, and the boundary is not rigid. If you are in the county and not on the list it is worth ringing, because being based here makes most of it a short drive.
Why does the camera matter so much in this county?
Because of the age of the housing. On a stack that has carried three different fuels and been altered more than once, what is wrong is usually structural and inside — the wrong size, an open joint, an unparged chamber — and none of that is visible from the hearth or fixed by sweeping.
How quickly can you get to an Essex County address?
Quicker than anywhere else we cover, because the day begins here. Telephone and ask what is open rather than assuming a waiting list — quite often there is not one.
