If your chimney’s lined with black, tarry deposits or you’ve noticed a strong chemical smell when lighting up, you’re dealing with creosote. Most sweeps in Leesburg stop at the surface, but we go deeper to eliminate hidden buildup that could ignite during your next fire. Our high-pressure vacuum system captures every particle, leaving your flue cleaner than a new chimney. We’ll also inspect for cracks or rust, common in older homes near the Catoctin Creek area, so you catch problems before they turn into costly repairs. Pricing starts at $120 for a basic sweep, but if we find creosote deeper than 1/8 inch, we’ll quote you upfront before touching a tool.
Call about this serviceLeesburg’s older neighborhoods, especially around the historic downtown, have chimneys that haven’t been properly maintained for decades. A ‘visual inspection’ from some sweeps won’t spot a cracked flue liner or a chimney cap that’s letting rain pour into your home. We use a chimney camera to see inside every inch, checking for structural damage, soot buildup, and even signs of water damage from last year’s heavy rains. If your damper sticks or you hear rustling sounds when the fire’s burning, that’s a red flag. We’ll explain exactly what’s wrong and whether it’s a $150 fix or a $2,000 repair. No guesswork, just clear answers and a written report you can take to your insurance if needed.
Call about this serviceA missing or damaged chimney cap is like leaving your front door wide open, except instead of burglars, you’re inviting in rain, leaves, and critters like squirrels or birds. Last year, we repaired or replaced caps on over half the homes we inspected in the Ashburn and Leesburg areas. Our stainless steel caps are built to last through Loudoun County’s harsh winters and won’t rust like cheaper models. If your cap’s bent, loose, or letting water drip into your fireplace, we’ll replace it with one that seals tight and comes with a 5-year warranty. Pricing starts at $180, but it’s a small investment compared to the $1,000+ repair a water-damaged chimney can cause.
Call about this serviceIf your fireplace smokes like a factory or your wood stove takes forever to heat up, the issue isn’t your firewood, it’s likely a clogged flue, a dirty burner, or a cracked gasket. We clean out ash buildup, adjust air vents, and check for proper draft so your fireplace works efficiently. For gas fireplaces, we inspect the pilot light and burner assembly to ensure they’re running safely. Many Leesburg homeowners don’t realize their fireplace could be costing them $200–$400 extra per year in wasted fuel. A maintenance visit costs $95 and could pay for itself in one heating season. We also service inserts and heatilators, so whether you’ve got a modern gas log or a classic masonry fireplace, we’ve got you covered.
Call about this serviceLeesburg’s wooded areas and older neighborhoods make it prime real estate for wildlife. Last spring, we removed nests from chimneys in every corner of town, from downtown lofts to homes near Goose Creek. A bird’s nest isn’t just a mess; it’s a fire hazard and a health risk. Our team uses specialized tools to remove nests without damaging your chimney, then cleans out every last feather and twig. We also install stainless steel mesh screens to block future visitors. Pricing depends on the size of the nest, but we’ll never charge you extra to clean up the mess. And if you’ve got a family of raccoons tearing up your flue, we’ll handle that too, safely and humanely.
Call about this serviceIf your chimney’s leaking water or you see white stains on the ceiling above your fireplace, you’ve got a water problem, and it’s worse than you think. Over time, moisture weakens mortar, rusts metal components, and can even rot the wood framing in your home. We specialize in repointing cracked mortar, sealing leaks, and reinforcing damaged bricks with high-strength cement. Many homeowners in the Purcellville and Leesburg areas assume a little water damage is normal, but it’s not. Left unchecked, it can lead to a full chimney rebuild costing thousands. Our repairs start at $250, but catching issues early saves you money, and keeps your home safe during Loudoun’s wet winters.
