Chimney Sweeping, QueensYour Local Chimney Sweeping Crew in Queens, NY
In Queens, a sweep is mostly about the boiler. Recent Census estimates show utility gas heating about 75% of occupied homes in the borough and fuel oil about 8%, and an oil burner leaves soot that builds up over a single season. Gas flues stay cleaner but collect debris, nests and flaking mortar at the base. Detached homes with real fireplaces add creosote to the list. Our local Queens crew sweeps each flue on the stack, clears the cleanout at the bottom and lets you know if anything looks worn while we are up there.

Chimney Sweeping for Queens Homes
Most of the homes in the Malba section of Whitestone are large houses, and a big house usually means a stack with several flues. A fireplace flue that sees heavy use in winter needs its creosote removed as it builds, while the boiler flue beside it needs a separate cleaning.
Glendale's Liberty Park section, developed in the 1920s, is mostly detached single-family wood-frame houses with driveways and backyards. On a frame house with a masonry chimney, a clean flue matters even more, because the wood structure sits close to the stack.
We sweep chimneys in Whitestone, Glendale, Bayside, Fresh Meadows and Flushing.
