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 Middletown Township, NJ
Middletown covers a lot of ground and a lot of different houses — waterfront properties at Belford and Port Monmouth, older stock at Navesink, and post-war neighbourhoods inland. The one thing they share is weather off the bay, and it is what most of the findings here come back to.

The short answer
Brushwork, surveys, repairs and laundry ducts across the township, where how exposed the individual house is matters more than how old it is.
What we find on these jobs
Two separate patterns run through this township. On the exposed properties near the water it is weather: caps working loose, chase covers rusting from the seam, flashing beaten by wind-driven rain from a direction the original detail never allowed for, and mortar opening on the weather face well before the sheltered one. Inland the picture is more conventional and deposit comes back into it, because genuine wood-burning is more common in this housing than in the denser towns closer to the base — and a fireplace that is actually used through a winter produces the creosote that a decorative one never does. That difference is why we ask how the fireplace is used before we ask anything about the chimney.

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 Middletown Township
We are close to the water. Does that change what we need?
It changes the metal rather than the method. Caps, chase covers, mesh and fastenings all have a shorter life in this exposure, and stainless rather than galvanised is worth the difference. The masonry itself ages much as it would inland.
We burn wood properly, most of the winter. How often should we sweep?
Once a season is the usual answer for that pattern of use, and it may be sooner if the wood has not had a summer to dry or if the fire gets damped down to hold overnight. Genuine wood-burning is what puts deposit back on the list, and this is one of the towns where it does.
The chimney is on an exposed gable and takes everything.
Then the top of it is where the annual look should concentrate. Crown, cap and flashing on that kind of elevation take more weather in one winter than a sheltered stack takes in three, and finding a lifted cap in October is a very different job from finding it in February.
How far do you come for a job out here?
It is the furthest town in the service area, so it is worth ringing rather than assuming. We do get down there, and it is easier to fit in when it is planned rather than urgent — which is another argument for the autumn appointment.
