Ye Old Town Sweep offers a full portfolio of chimney and venting system services.
Whether it’s woodstoves, fireplaces, chimneys, or dryer vents, we
understand the intricacies of the venting systems in your home. And
we’re equipped to address all of your maintenance and safety needs.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends that homeowners
have their chimney inspected at least once a year.
Our
services include:
Chimney Inspections & Cleaning
Our OCSA Certified Chimney Sweeps use state-of-the-art equipment to
inspect and sweep 1st- and 2nd-story chimneys of all kinds, including wood and pellet chimneys. While sweeping your system, we
ensure that it’s in working order. We look for any problems that could
prevent peak performance and recommend what is needed for your system
to burn cleanly and safely.
New Wood or Pellet
Stove Sales & Complete Installation
We sell quality stoves & fireplace inserts and
offer complete installations of all kinds.
Ye Old Town Sweep offer Pellet Stove Cleanings and yearly maintenance
along with complete service, diagnostics, and repairs on most brands.
Dryer Vent Inspections & Cleaning
In addition to servicing chimneys, we inspect and clean dryer vents in
one- and two-story homes. A thorough cleaning by one of our employees includes searching for any issues that might interfere with
optimal operation. Highly effective diagnostic tools allow us to detect
and resolve issues before they become problems.
Waterproofing/Repair & Restoration
We offer the full range of repairs to chimney systems, big and
small—from repairing leaky flashing to tuckpointing and masonry repair
to relining the flue and chimney rebuilding. We always include 10 year masonry water
repellent application on all masonry repairs. This prevents freeze/thaw damage
from moisture.
Rebuild Crowns
Improperly built crowns are another common problem. If yours is cracked
or poorly constructed—allowing water penetration or posing a fire
hazard—we’ll build a proper concrete one that’s guaranteed not to crack.
Install Chimney Caps
The best way to prevent moisture from rain and snow, animals, leaves,
and other debris from entering your chimney is to install a chimney
cap. Our high-quality stainless steel caps carry a lifetime warranty.
Replace Chase Tops
Leaky or damaged chase tops, and those made of masonry, are potential
hazards on prefabricated metal fireplaces. We help eliminate problems
before they start by replacing masonry and rusty metal chase tops.
Water Leak & Condensation Resolution & Repair
If water is damaging your fireplace inside or out, we’ll find and fix it—no matter the source.
