Chimney, flue and dryer vent service in East Orange, NJ
East Orange is a city of apartment buildings. Almost half of its homes are in buildings with five or more units, and more than a quarter are in buildings of 50 units or more. About two in five homes were built in 1939 or earlier.
In brief
We inspect and clean chimneys and flues, fit liners and clean dryer vents and air ducts in Presidential Estates, Ampere, Elmwood, Doddtown and the rest of the city, for homeowners and building managers alike.
Apartment buildings, electric heat and older houses
With so much of East Orange in larger apartment buildings and nearly a third of homes on electric heat, a lot of the venting work here is dryers and ducts rather than fireplaces. In buildings with many laundry hookups, lint builds up in long runs and in shared outlets, and a clogged dryer vent is a fire risk as well as a slow dryer. The older houses and smaller buildings still have brick chimneys, many of them now venting a gas appliance that replaced an older one, so we check that the liner suits what it serves. The city keeps a registration program for vacant properties, and when a building has stood empty, a chimney inspection before the heat comes back on is a sensible step.

Reviews from our Google listing
A selection of our 5-star reviews on Google.
Polishing the ceramic glass and unblocking the air-wash intake passages turned our heavily used woodstove back into an effective heat source.
Static-cling barriers locked the aperture tight, so that high soot agitation inside the top flue never wandered into the next-door kitchen.
The entire sweep was completed with engineering precision and purity never before witnessed from meticulous pre-setup to HD inside camera feature.
What East Orange homeowners ask us
We manage an apartment building in East Orange. Can you clean all the dryer vents?
Yes. We clean each unit's run and any shared exhaust, and give you a summary of what we found in each unit.
Our building has a boiler chimney. Do you service those?
We inspect and clean residential and small building flues. For a large commercial boiler system we tell you honestly whether the job fits what we do.
We bought an older house that was vacant for a while. What should we check?
Have the chimney inspected before using the heat or the fireplace. Empty houses often have nests, debris or water damage in the flue.
