Honest good working local company. The amount they quoted me on the phone was the price I paid after the service was completed.
Chimney sweep and duct cleaning in Flemington Borough, NJ
Flemington Borough is the oldest and densest place we cover in Hunterdon — a courthouse town built up over two centuries, most of it now on the state historic register, with more homes in mid-size apartment buildings than in single-family houses. We schedule the trip out from Bloomfield to sweep, inspect, and repair chimneys here, plus the duct and dryer vent work that a borough this dense actually needs.

The short answer
In Flemington Borough we sweep and inspect gas-fired chimneys and party-wall flues in the borough’s older buildings, handle liner sizing and repair work, and run duct and dryer vent service for the apartment buildings that make up most of its housing.
What we find on Flemington jobs
Flemington Borough is the one Hunterdon town where the housing is genuinely urban in form — narrow lots, party walls, and more homes inside multi-unit buildings than in standalone houses, some of those buildings holding fifty units or more. It is also the county’s oldest fabric: about a quarter of the borough predates 1940, and much of downtown sits inside the state’s historic register, so an exterior chimney change on one of those buildings is worth a call to the borough before work starts. The fuel picture here runs opposite to the townships around it — three in four households run on gas and essentially nobody heats primarily on wood, which shifts the job toward gas liner sizing, orphaned water heater venting after a boiler swap, and party-wall flues shared between adjoining units. In the larger apartment buildings, a long interior dryer run is the more common finding than anything to do with the chimney itself. A Flemington stop fits into the same Hunterdon trip out from Bloomfield that covers the townships nearby.

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 Flemington Borough
We’re in an apartment building in Flemington. Do you work with property managers?
Yes. A large share of Flemington’s housing sits inside multi-unit buildings, some with fifty units or more, and that work usually means dryer-vent and duct runs serving several units rather than a single household’s chimney. We coordinate directly with building management as well as individual residents, whichever the job calls for.
Our building is inside the historic district. What does that mean for chimney work?
It mainly affects anything visible from the street. Sweeping, camera inspection, and interior liner work do not change how a building reads from outside, so those proceed as usual. A rebuild, a new cap, or anything else that changes the stack’s appearance is worth clearing with the borough first, since most of downtown Flemington sits on the historic register.
Why does Flemington see so little wood heat compared to the townships around it?
Mostly the housing type. Flemington’s stock is dense and largely gas-heated, with far fewer standalone houses with room for a wood stove or an active fireplace than the farmhouses out in the townships. That does not mean nobody has one — it means the count of primary heating fuel, which is what that figure comes from, shows almost none using wood as their main source.
Does the ZIP code overlap with Raritan Township cause any confusion for you?
It can for homeowners, less so for us. Flemington’s ZIP code, 08822, also covers the whole of the surrounding Raritan Township, so a Flemington mailing address does not always mean a Flemington Borough parcel. We confirm the actual municipality before booking, since the permit for any rebuild goes through a different office depending on which one it is.
