Chimney services in Orinda, from a sweep to a rebuild
Orinda homeowners can book a full range of chimney work. That includes sweeping, flue cleaning, creosote removal and clearing blockages or nests. On the masonry side, we fix crowns, flashing and leaks, repoint mortar joints and rebuild chimneys that are past repair.
If you're not sure what your fireplace and chimney need, a chimney and flue inspection is the usual starting point. A camera inspection lets us see inside the liner, not just at the top and bottom. What we find tells you whether you need repairs to the chimney structure, a new liner, or simply a properly fitted chimney cap to keep rain, debris and animals out of the flue.
Fireplace and dryer vent work
Inside the house, we clean and repair wood-burning fireplaces, inserts and wood stoves. We also replace refractory panels, glass and doors, and fix draft problems. Gas fireplace and gas appliance work is offered, including service, repairs, gas logs and new installations. We also handle conversions and replacements when an older unit no longer makes sense to keep.
Dryer vents get the same attention. We clear lint and blockages, test airflow and clean vents that exit through the roof. We can also repair, replace or reroute a duct that runs too long or bends too sharply to vent well.
