For over 30 years, Chimney Cricket has served the Philadelphia area with comprehensive chimney restoration, full service chimney repairs, quality chimney inspections, and reliable chimney sweeping. Why choose Chimney Cricket? Simple. We love chimneys! We are more than certified sweeps, inspectors, and masons. Each of our technicians share a passion for their work. We love the challenge of troubleshooting chimney problems and enjoy restoring masonry chimneys.

"We’re enjoying the heat and beauty of our new fireplace as I write this! Chimney Cricket supported us through a tough series of errors caused by manufacturer’s lack of support. Finally they were able to locate the errors and get our beautiful new fireplace up and running. My only word of warning to folks considering installation of a new fireplace: make sure the model you select has a track record of easy installation and servicing, and that the manufacturer is known for standing behind their products."

Gave him the ok and he got started that night, in doing so found the blockage was because the chimney had completely collapsed. Him and his crew came back the next day and unclogged and resealed the chimney. Everything was done very timely and professional"

"I would strongly advise against using this company. My experience has been nothing but frustration and disappointment. First, when I got the estimate for a wood stove insert, I specifically told the salesperson that I wanted a large window to enjoy the fire and a unit that would effectively heat my home. He assured me I would get both. I paid a $4,000 deposit, trusting their word. When they called to schedule the install, I was shocked to learn they only install on weekday mornings—something that should have been disclosed before I paid. As a teacher and single mom, that was impossible for me, and I had to make last-minute arrangements for my brother to be there. On top of that, they showed up two hours late, almost making my brother miss an important appointment. Then comes the actual product—the window is much smaller than what I was promised, which was disappointing but not a dealbreaker. What was a dealbreaker? The blower didn’t work. They didn’t even leave the full manual, and after tracking it down online, we confirmed we were using it correctly. I reached out to the salesperson (who always communicated via text), and he ignored me for two days before telling me to "try a bigger fire." After spending over $20 on wood, I finally got the blower to turn on… for 30 seconds before shutting off again. That is not a functional heating system. I contacted them again and was suddenly told they were "reminding" me that they’d be coming by the next morning to check it—except no one had booked that with me. Again, I reminded them that I work during the day and need an appointment after 4 PM or on a weekend. He said he’d get back to me, and since then, I’ve sent multiple texts with zero response. At this point, I want my money back and for them to take this useless stove out of my house. Do not use this company. They mislead customers, have poor communication, and clearly don’t stand behind their products or service."

Chimney Repair questions, answered by experts

Regular cleaning, rust prevention treatments, and protective coatings extend lifespan and appearance.

Metal roofs can rust, but steel is a material that holds up well to environmental factors, especially if it’s painted or galvanized. One of the main determining factors regarding rust is the environment the roof is in. Harsher environments with a lot of salt in the air will rust much more quickly than a steel or metal roof in a dry climate. Zinc-coated steel, called galvanized steel, is excellent at preventing rust from forming.

The green coloration that develops on copper roofs is called a “patina,” and it’s a result of mild oxidation on the surface. The oxidation process is not harmful to your roof. In fact, the surface corrosion acts as a protective layer and won’t spread to the core of your copper roof materials. The discoloration will progress much more quickly in damp or humid climates than it will in dry climates. If you don’t like the green color, you can seal your roof to preserve the shiny, rose-gold look.

Zinc roofs can last over 100 years under ideal conditions. While metal roofs last a long time, only copper roofing is comparable to zinc's longevity. Zinc roofing develops a patina over time, turning from dark shades to lighter ones. The material, or at least the patina coating, is somewhat self-healing by filling in small gaps and scratches on its own.  

Most standing seam metal roofs last between 50 and 80 years. Certain high-end metals like copper or zinc can last up to 100 years if well-maintained. For the best durability, choose a low-gauge (thick) roof in a metal that works with your climate. Some are susceptible to thermal expansion and aren’t the best choice for all climates.
