Creosote buildup in older chimneys isn’t just unsightly—it’s a silent fire hazard, especially in homes built before 1980 when flue liners were often omitted or improperly installed. Our Englewood chimney sweeps use industry-grade tools and HEPA vacuums to remove every trace of creosote, soot, and debris without damaging your masonry. We focus on the flue’s condition, checking for cracks or gaps that could let heat escape into your walls. For homes with original brickwork, we take extra care to avoid disturbing historic mortar joints. Your chimney will draft cleaner, your fires will burn brighter, and your risk of a chimney fire drops to near zero.
Request this service →Many Englewood homes built before the 1980s lack proper chimney liners—or have liners that are cracked, collapsed, or coated in decades of creosote. A failing liner doesn’t just reduce efficiency; it can allow heat to penetrate combustible walls, creating a hidden fire risk. We install stainless steel or cast-in-place liners tailored to your chimney’s dimensions, ensuring they meet Colorado’s strict safety codes while preserving your home’s original brick aesthetic. For masonry chimneys with damaged clay tiles, we offer patching or complete relining to restore structural integrity without a full rebuild.
Request this service →Englewood’s freeze-thaw climate takes a toll on older chimneys, causing mortar joints to crumble and bricks to shift. We specialize in repointing—carefully removing deteriorated mortar and replacing it with a custom-blend mix that matches your home’s original joints. For cracked or loose bricks, we use high-temperature mortar and reinforcement techniques to prevent further deterioration. Unlike quick fixes, our repairs address the root cause of decay, extending your chimney’s lifespan by decades. We document every step so you know exactly what’s been restored.
Request this service →A missing or cracked chimney cap lets rain, snow, and debris enter your flue, accelerating deterioration of liners and masonry. For Englewood homes, we install custom copper or stainless steel caps that resist corrosion and include mesh screens to block pests. Crowns—concrete or metal seals at the top of the chimney—are often overlooked but critical for preventing water intrusion. We repair cracked crowns with durable, weather-resistant materials and ensure proper slope to shed water away from vulnerable areas. Protecting your chimney today saves thousands in future repairs.
Request this service →Older fireplaces in Englewood homes often hide dangerous flaws: cracked flues, missing dampers, or obstructions from decades of use. Our Level 2 inspections include a video scan of your flue to identify issues invisible to the naked eye, such as partial blockages or liner deterioration. We check for proper clearances to combustibles, verify chimney height meets local codes, and assess whether your fireplace’s design (common in pre-1980 homes) still functions safely. This isn’t a cursory sweep—it’s a full diagnostic to ensure your fireplace is as safe as it is charming.
Request this service →Water is the #1 enemy of masonry chimneys in Englewood’s climate, where freeze-thaw cycles can split bricks and erode mortar in just a few years. We apply a high-quality, vapor-permeable waterproofing sealant that repels rain and snow while allowing trapped moisture to escape. Unlike cheap paint-like coatings, our treatment penetrates the brick to create a lasting barrier against water intrusion. For chimneys with existing damage, we pair waterproofing with repointing to halt further decay. It’s a proactive step that preserves your home’s historic charm.
