Chimney and duct work in Bergen County, NJ

Bergen County means Fair Lawn for us: largely single-family, largely accessible, and a town where the visit is the same from one house to the next. What changes is what the camera finds, and here that comes down almost entirely to whether the boiler still runs on what the chimney was built for.

The short answer

Brushwork, surveys, repairs and laundry ducts across the borough, where what the heating has been converted to is usually what decides the report.

What we find across Bergen County

What we file most often in this county is a question of proportion: somebody moved the boiler from oil to gas and left the shaft exactly as wide as it always was. Exhaust cools on the way up, condenses, and the acidic condensate works on the liner from inside where nothing shows until it shows on the outside of the brickwork. A stainless liner sized to the appliance is the usual repair. The older streets add a second theme: slabs on top of stacks that have absorbed something close to a hundred winters of freezing and thawing. They get examined ahead of any brushing, because once that split reaches the tile the rain is going straight down inside the brickwork and nothing done with a brush touches it.

Matthew Jones

Honest good working local company. The amount they quoted me on the phone was the price I paid after the service was completed.

Megan Gough

Expert setup, high-powered vacuums, and absolutely no dust residue. Excellent work.

Lucille Jensen

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 Bergen County

Do you cover more of Bergen County than Fair Lawn?

Fair Lawn has a page of its own because it is where most of our Bergen work is. The boundary is not rigid, so if you are elsewhere in the county it is worth ringing rather than assuming — it usually depends on what else is booked that week.

Our boiler was converted from oil to gas. Does that matter?

It is the commonest finding in this county. The flue is now far larger than the appliance needs, so the exhaust cools and condenses on the way up and works on the masonry from inside. A camera scan settles whether it is happening in your stack.

When should we book?

Earlier in the autumn than most people do. The week after the first genuinely cold night is the busiest of the year, and anything found that needs masonry work then needs dry weather that December will not reliably provide.
