Chimney Sweeping & Cleaning in Monsey & 30 miles around

What this service actually is

A chimney sweep is not just about soot on a brush. It is the yearly reset that keeps creosote from building into fuel, keeps the flue drawing properly, and gives a trained set of eyes a look at every inch of your system before the cold weather hits.

What you get

• Removes creosote, soot and ash before it becomes a chimney fire
• Restores draft so smoke goes up the flue instead of into your living room
• Catches cracked tiles, rusted dampers and nesting material early
• Keeps most homeowner insurance policies and warranties valid
• Leaves your home cleaner than we found it — HEPA vacuum, drop cloths, shoe covers

How we do it

1. We protect the room first

Drop cloths across the hearth, shoe covers on our boots, and a HEPA-filtered vacuum sealed at the fireplace opening before a single brush goes in.

2. Rotary sweep, top and bottom

We brush the flue, smoke chamber, smoke shelf and firebox with rotary and poly brushes sized to your exact flue, working the creosote down into the vacuum instead of into your air.

3. Camera check and written report

A quick internal inspection while the flue is clean, with photos of anything worth knowing about and a plain-English report — no scare tactics.

Signs you need chimney sweeping

If any of these sound familiar, it is worth a call. There is no charge to ask.

• You have burned a cord of wood (or a full season) since your last sweep
• Black, flaky or shiny tar-like buildup visible above the damper
• Smoke rolling back into the room when you light a fire
• A sharp, campfire-like smell from the fireplace on humid days
• You just bought the house and have no service history

What it costs

Chimney cleaning is priced in three levels, because a flue swept every year and a flue with four seasons of glazed creosote are not the same job. We tell you which level you are in before we start, based on what the inspection shows.

• Prices are for standard chimneys up to 24 feet.
• The final price is determined by our team after the inspection.
• Chimney height and the level of buildup or creosote affect the final price.

★★★★★

“They put down drop cloths before they even brought the brushes in, and the vacuum ran the whole time. Not one speck of soot in the living room. Showed me photos of the cracked crown instead of just telling me about it.”

Why homeowners pick Hero

We are a family company working out of Monsey, not a national franchise routing your call to a dispatcher three states away. That means the person who quotes your job is on the roof doing it, the price does not change halfway through, and if something is not right afterward we are twenty minutes away.

Every visit includes photo documentation. Every recommendation comes with an explanation of what happens if you wait, so you can make the call on your own timeline instead of ours.
