Chimney and vent service across Camden County, NJ

Camden County is home ground for us. Our crew works out of Cherry Hill, and the five other Camden County towns on our map are all within about eight miles of it. The county's median home was built in 1967, so most chimneys here have already outlasted at least one furnace.

In brief

We sweep, inspect and repair chimneys in Cherry Hill, Haddonfield, Collingswood, Voorhees, Pennsauken and Gloucester Township, and we clean dryer vents and air ducts in houses, townhouses and condos. The work runs from coal-era brick in the old boroughs to factory-built fireplaces in the newer townships.

Mild winters that still crack masonry

It is easy to assume South Jersey winters are gentle on chimneys, and in one sense they are, since the heating season here is roughly 15 percent shorter than in Essex County. Masonry does not care about the total cold, though. It cares how often the temperature crosses freezing, and near Cherry Hill the air does that about 99 times a year, nearly as often as in North Jersey. Every crossing lets water in a cracked crown or a soft joint freeze and expand again, which is why we pay close attention to crowns, caps, flashing and the top courses of brick here. Under the houses the county sits on flat Coastal Plain sand rather than rock, so we also look for settlement where an exterior chimney meets the wall. Inside, the job depends on the decade. Older boroughs like Haddonfield and Collingswood have masonry flues built for coal, while Voorhees and Gloucester Township lean on factory-built fireplaces from the 1970s and 1980s.

  • Jerry A.

    Polishing the ceramic glass and unblocking the air-wash intake passages turned our heavily used woodstove back into an effective heat source.

  • Allison S.

    Static-cling barriers locked the aperture tight, so that high soot agitation inside the top flue never wandered into the next-door kitchen.

  • A U.

    The entire sweep was completed with engineering precision and purity never before witnessed from meticulous pre-setup to HD inside camera feature.

What Camden County homeowners ask us

Which Camden County towns do you serve?

Cherry Hill Township, Haddonfield, Collingswood, Voorhees Township, Pennsauken Township and Gloucester Township. Each one has its own page with what we see there.

Do South Jersey winters really damage chimneys?

Yes. The cold is milder than up north, but the temperature still swings across freezing about a hundred times a year here, and each swing works water deeper into a crack. That is what breaks crowns and loosens brick.

Can you handle both an old brick chimney and a factory-built fireplace?

Yes. They are different jobs. A brick chimney is cleaned, inspected and repaired as masonry, and a factory-built unit is checked as a listed system with its own parts. We come prepared for whichever one you have.
