Chimney and duct cleaning in Bridgewater Township, NJ
Bridgewater Township is a large suburb of single-family houses: 69.6 percent of its 16,975 homes are detached, and 60.9 percent were built in 1970 or later. It is about 25 miles from Bloomfield.
In brief
In Bridgewater we sweep and inspect masonry and factory-built fireplaces, service gas flues, repair crowns and chase covers, and clean dryer vents and ducts.
Two generations of chimneys
Bridgewater has both kinds of chimney in large numbers. About four homes in ten were built before 1970, mostly with brick chimneys and clay liners, and the other six were built later, often with factory-built fireplaces in framed chases. A masonry chimney fails at the crown and the mortar, and a factory-built one at the chase cover and the metal flue, so we bring the right checks for each. Gas heats about 85 percent of households, which keeps furnace and water heater flues on our list too.

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.
Bridgewater Township questions
How can I tell if my Bridgewater fireplace is factory-built?
A metal firebox with refractory panels and a metal chimney inside a framed chase usually means factory-built. We confirm it on the visit and inspect it to the manufacturer's standards.
Our chase cover on the roof is rusty. Is that urgent?
It is worth fixing before winter. A rusted chase cover lets water into the chase and down the flue, and it can damage the firebox and framing underneath.
