Your Local Chimney Sweeps in Northampton County, PA

Northampton County is one of the colder parts of the region, and chimneys here put in a long season. Fireplaces and wood stoves leave creosote on the flue walls, while older boilers send soot and acidic residue up masonry flues all winter. When those deposits build up, they narrow the flue, weaken the draft and can catch fire. A sweeping clears them out. Our crew cleans each flue from top to bottom, empties the base, clears the smoke shelf and leaves your room clean.

Open 24 hours, Sunday to Friday. Free written estimates.

Chimney Sweeping for Northampton County Homes

Nazareth saw a housing boom in the late 1900s after new highways arrived, including nearby Pennsylvania Route 33. Many homes from that boom have a fireplace flue and a furnace flue side by side, and we sweep both on the same visit.

Forks Township was founded in 1754 as a farming community between Bushkill Creek and the Delaware River. Older farmhouses there often burn wood in large fireplaces or stoves, and those flues need cleaning whenever creosote builds up.

We sweep chimneys in Nazareth, Forks Township, Palmer Township, Easton and Bethlehem.

When to Call Us

  • Smoke rolls into the room when the fire starts
  • A strong campfire smell on humid days
  • Black flakes falling into the firebox
  • You do not remember the last sweep
  • You bought a house with a fireplace you have never used

How the Job Goes

  1. We protect the room

    Drop cloths go down from the door to the hearth and the opening is sealed before any brush goes in.

  2. We clean the whole system

    Firebox, damper, smoke shelf, smoke chamber and flue, with rods and brushes sized to your flue.

  3. We look while we clean

    We check the damper, the flue joints and the crown and cap, and tell you plainly what we found.

  4. You get it in writing

    If anything needs repair, you get a free written estimate before any work starts.

Chimney Sweeping Questions in Northampton County

What is the black, crusty buildup inside my chimney?
That is usually creosote, a by-product of burning wood. It starts as a fine soot, can harden into a glazed layer and is flammable. Regular sweeping removes it before it builds to a dangerous level.
Do you sweep chimneys in the winter?
Yes, as long as the roof is safe to work on. If you burn wood heavily, a midwinter sweep can be a good idea, and we schedule around snow and ice for safety.
How often should a chimney be swept?
NFPA 211, the national standard for chimneys and fireplaces, calls for an inspection at least once a year, with cleaning when deposits build up. A fireplace used every winter weekend usually needs a sweep every year.
