"Had a lot of smoke blow back when I used fireplace for first time, so hired All County Maintenance to inspect and clean a chimney in a condo. They arrived right on time and a quick and efficient job. During the process Peter(the owner) without prompting, kindly explained each step they were doing and why as he and his assistant did the inspection and cleaning. He also explained to me how my chimney was constructed, what caused the smoke to blow back and how to avoid it in the future. Provided an overall excellent service and would hire again for any future issues."

"Rich came out and noticed my chimney had excessive chimney cracks which was allowing sulfur gases into my home, we had Rich install a chimney liner to prevent any more issue. Rich was very professional and very fair on his prices! I I highly recommend using Exclusive sweeps for any chimney needs!!"

Customers say: Terrific value

"Paul takes great pride in his work! Properly inspected and cleaned all of my chimneys in my 2 family home in Brooklyn. Found an old burnt up beer can in the chimney which clearly shows the last chimney sweepers I used did not clean my chimneys properly! Fixed additional issues with the chimney caps but did not charge extra. He stuck to the price he quoted. He is hardworking and honest. A rarity in this day! Thank You Paul!"

"Peter showed up early and finished the job quickly. Professional work. Used quality materials. He cleaned up after the job was done. The price he quoted was reasonable and there weren’t any extras. I will be recommending him to my son who has a plumbing business and is always looking for good chimney workers."

"John arrived on time with a 1-hour call ahead. He worked quickly inspecting and restoring my fireplace and chimney to operate safely. He was a pleasure to speak with and took the time to answer my questions and teach me about areas of concern he noted during his inspection as well as providing additional resources. I encourage you to seek him out. I will use him again in the future."

"Anthony Masonry and chimney did an excellent job clearing a ton of trees and vines from my property. They were efficient and pleasant to work with - would 10 / 10 higher this company again. I also had them do some stonework leading up to my house, which came out phenomenal."

Chimney Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

While a few icicles on your roof are standard, a large accumulation can be a sign of a bigger problem, such as poor insulation. This is particularly true if you are also dealing with ice dams. If you have numerous large icicles, it is recommended to have a roofing contractor diagnose potential insulation issues and create a plan to solve them.

To maintain a slate roof and prolong its lifespan, conduct regular inspections, ideally annually, or schedule professional inspections. Key maintenance includes cleaning gutters regularly, promptly replacing any broken or damaged tiles, and ensuring the flashing remains intact to prevent leaks. It is also recommended to remove overhanging tree branches and address minor issues as soon as they appear.

If the bay window extends beyond your existing roofline, you must add a roof or a small “skirt” to divert storm water and prevent water damage. The window roof can match your existing house roof, or be finished with copper or other decorative materials. Most bay windows have a roof with complete flashing regardless of their placement to prevent leaks into the home.

Walking on the roof to clean gutters is unsafe and not recommended due to significant safety risks. It is especially dangerous on steep or slippery roofs, or if the roof is wet or covered in leaves, which increases the chance of a fall. In addition to personal injury, walking on the roof can damage shingles, potentially leading to water leaks. Instead of walking on the roof, use a sturdy ladder positioned on a stable surface to access the gutters. Be aware that using a ladder also carries risks, as it can be difficult to maintain balance while performing the work. You can also use ground-based cleaning tools. For safety reasons and to prevent damage to your roof, hiring a professional to clean your gutters is the best and safest option.

Yes, moss can be dangerous for your roof if left in place to grow without treatment. The moss soaks up and holds moisture. Having a constantly damp roof could lead to problems with rot for the parts of the roof that consist of wood. Additionally, a patch of thick moss may draw insects and birds, which could damage the roof. Thick moss could block the roof’s drainage system. Water then may back up after a rainstorm and cause further damage that could eventually lead to roof repair expenses or the cost of roof replacement.
