The technician showed me exactly what he was doing, step by step, while he worked. It was really interesting to look inside the flue with his tablet camera. Very open service!
Chimney sweep and repair in Hunterdon County, NJ
Hunterdon County runs on oil the way our closer service area runs on gas—close to a third of its households heat with fuel oil, roughly four times the New Jersey average, and another one in eleven runs on propane. We reach six of its twenty-six municipalities from Cherry Hill—Readington, Clinton, Flemington, Raritan, Tewksbury and Lebanon—as a planned trip, working oil-fired masonry, factory-built subdivision chimneys and old borough gas systems in roughly equal measure.

The short answer
We sweep, inspect and repair oil, gas, propane and wood-burning chimneys across six Hunterdon County townships and boroughs, plus air duct and dryer vent cleaning, scheduled as a dedicated trip out from Cherry Hill rather than a same-day stop.
What we find across Hunterdon County jobs
Hunterdon County’s chimneys split along fuel lines more than almost anywhere else we work. Fuel oil heats close to a third of the county’s occupied homes, and every one of those systems is prone to the acidic condensate and scale that oil produces and gas does not. Layered on top of that is a housing-age split: farmhouses and old borough buildings that predate any statewide construction code sit alongside 1980s and 90s subdivisions built in the exact years factory-built metal chimneys became standard equipment. Whichever type it is, New Jersey requires the installing contractor to sign a chimney verification form every time a furnace, boiler or water heater gets replaced, on any fuel—one of the few moments a flue actually gets a second look. The county’s weather adds its own load: the region’s own station readings show more heating degree days and more days crossing the freezing point each year than we see close to Cherry Hill, which is harder on exposed masonry. Because of the distance, we work Hunterdon County as a scheduled visit, not a routine stop.

I have an ancient farm home with an unlined brick chimney. They cleaned the soot away with soft brushing without disturbing any of the ancient interior mortar joints.
The tech pointed out a small fracture in our firebrick that I would have overlooked entirely. Patched it up there for a very fair amount.
Questions from Hunterdon County
Which Hunterdon County towns do you actually serve?
Six: Readington, Clinton, Flemington, Raritan, Tewksbury and Lebanon Townships, plus Flemington Borough. Hunterdon has twenty-six municipalities in total; these are the ones where we’ve done the research on housing stock, fuel mix and local permitting well enough to work from, rather than guessing at what a property needs.
Why does so much of Hunterdon County still use oil heat?
Distance from the gas main, mostly. Close to a third of the county’s occupied homes heat with fuel oil, roughly four times New Jersey’s statewide rate, concentrated in the townships farthest from the main highway corridors. Oil-fired systems vent into masonry that needs different upkeep than a gas flue does, which is why we check for it specifically.
Do you come to Hunterdon County on short notice?
No—Hunterdon County is far enough from our Cherry Hill base that we work it as a scheduled trip, not a same-day call. Tell us which town and what the property needs, and we’ll set a date rather than promise something we can’t deliver from this distance.
