Q: How often should I have my chimney cleaned?

The NFPA recommends at least once per year for any chimney that is used. If you burn wood regularly, you may need cleaning more often to keep creosote at safe levels.

Whether you need your annual chimney sweep, a Level II inspection before selling your home, tuck-pointing, flashing repair, or a new chimney cap, we've got you covered. Call us at (781) 268-1037 or request a visit online.

Swampscott Homes & Their Chimneys

Swampscott mixes grand Victorian and shingle-style seaside homes along Puritan Road and Phillips Beach with 1920s-to-1950s colonials and capes in the Olmsted District and around the center. Slate and tile roofs are more common here than in most North Shore towns.

Common Chimney Problems We See in Swampscott

Ocean proximity drives mortar erosion and spalling on the seaward side of chimneys, so tuck-pointing and breathable waterproofing are routine needs. Flashing repairs on slate and tile roofs require the right materials and technique to avoid damaging the roof. Large older homes often have unused flues that still need caps to keep water and animals out.
