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 Middlesex County, NJ
Middlesex County holds the widest contrast in our whole service area, because three very different New Jersey towns sit inside it. New Brunswick is a dense, rental-heavy college city. Edison is mile after mile of postwar ranch and split-level subdivisions. Perth Amboy is a working waterfront city older than the state itself. We work all three, adjusted to what each one actually is, not to a single generic idea of a New Jersey chimney.

The short answer
Yes — Royal Chimney works throughout Middlesex County, including New Brunswick, Edison and Perth Amboy: sweeping, inspection, repair, and duct or dryer vent cleaning, scheduled as a normal planned visit from our Cherry Hill base.
One county, three different chimney stories
Middlesex County doesn’t have one dominant housing type, and that changes how a visit here goes. Edison is the county’s postwar suburban stretch — ranch and split-level houses built mostly between 1950 and 1989, most now heating with gas after starting out on oil, with forced-air duct systems that often run longer than a rowhouse ever would. New Brunswick is a different problem: a majority-rental, majority multi-family city where roughly a third of households heat with electricity alone, which means a fair number of fireplaces sit decorative and unused for years at a time, not tied to any furnace at all. Perth Amboy is older again — about half its housing predates 1960 — and sits directly on Raritan Bay, so masonry, flashing and caps here take wind-driven rain and salt air that an inland town simply doesn’t get. Three towns, three different jobs, and none of them get the same inspection.

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 Middlesex County
Do you cover all of Middlesex County, or just these three towns?
These three — New Brunswick, Edison and Perth Amboy — are the towns listed for Middlesex County on our service pages, but we’re glad to take a call from anywhere nearby in the county. If a job sits just outside these boundaries, the fastest way to know is to call and describe the address.
How far is Middlesex County from your Cherry Hill base?
It’s a central New Jersey drive, not a quick one — roughly an hour depending on traffic and which town you’re in. We schedule Middlesex County jobs as a normal planned visit, the same as any appointment outside Camden County, rather than treating the distance as anything unusual.
Is a chimney job in Edison the same as one in Perth Amboy?
No. Edison’s housing is mostly postwar single-family with forced-air heat and long duct runs. Perth Amboy is older and sits on the bay, where masonry and metal components age faster from wind-driven rain and salt air. New Brunswick adds a third pattern again — dense, rental housing with a lot of electric-only heat. We read the town before we read the chimney.
