Our team of experts is dedicated to upholding the highest industry standards, delivering comprehensive services that encompass every aspect of chimney care.

Experience That Sets Us Apart

At Black Goose Chimney, experience is paramount. Our lead technicians are nationally certified through the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA), ensuring that they possess the latest knowledge and expertise in chimney safety and maintenance. We adhere strictly to the standards outlined in the Successful Chimney Sweeping Manual published by the National Chimney Sweep Guild (NCSG), guaranteeing that our services meet the highest professional benchmarks.

Beyond technical proficiency, we prioritize the care of your property. During every sweep and inspection, we meticulously protect your home and surrounding area from soot and residue, ensuring a clean and hassle-free experience.

Leveling Up Your Safety with Comprehensive Inspections

Recognizing the crucial role of a thorough inspection in chimney safety, we offer two distinct levels of inspection, meticulously aligned with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards: Level I and Level II. A Level I inspection involves a limited visual assessment utilizing a flashlight, providing a preliminary overview of the chimney system. For a more in-depth examination, our Level II inspection employs a closed-circuit camera to capture images of the entire flue, delivering a comprehensive and detailed analysis.

Services Tailored to Your Needs

Black Goose Chimney Sweep goes beyond traditional chimney sweeping, offering a comprehensive range of services designed to meet the diverse needs of our clients:

Chimney Sweep:** Regular chimney sweeps are essential for removing creosote and other combustion byproducts, significantly reducing the risk of chimney fires. Our skilled technicians perform meticulous sweeps, ensuring that your chimney is free from obstructions and operating efficiently.

Chimney Repairs:** Over time, chimneys can sustain damage from weathering, age, or improper installation. Our team expertly diagnoses and repairs cracks, leaks, and other structural issues, restoring the integrity and safety of your chimney.

Chimney Relining:** If your existing chimney liner has deteriorated, relining provides a modern, durable barrier to protect your home from potential hazards. We utilize industry-leading materials and techniques to install a new liner, ensuring optimal airflow and safety.

Chimney Caps:** Chimney caps prevent debris, animals, and rain from entering your chimney, safeguarding it from damage and ensuring proper ventilation. We offer a variety of styles and materials to complement your home's aesthetics while providing essential protection.

Chimney Swift Top Pans/Chase Covers:** Designed to prevent chimney swifts from nesting in your chimney, these specialized covers offer a humane and effective solution.

Fireplace Rebuild:** From classic wood-burning fireplaces to modern gas fireplace inserts, we offer comprehensive rebuilds to enhance the aesthetics, efficiency, and functionality of your fireplace system. We personalize designs to match your style and preferences.

Gas Log Services:** We specialize in the installation and maintenance of gas logs and inserts, offering a convenient and efficient alternative to wood-burning fireplaces.

Historic Restorations:** For historic homes, we understand the importance of preserving original features while ensuring modern safety standards. We provide expert restoration services, meticulously blending traditional techniques with contemporary materials.

Dryer Vent Maintenance

Clean dryer vents are crucial for both safety and efficiency. Accumulated lint poses a significant fire hazard while hindering proper airflow, increasing energy consumption. Our dryer vent cleaning services remove lint buildup, preventing potential fires and optimizing the performance of your dryer.

Animal Removal: Dealing with unwanted animal intruders in your chimney can be a stressful experience. Our team safely and humanely removes animals, sealing your chimney to prevent future infestations.
