Fireplace & Flue Repair

A properly functioning fireplace and flue are essential for safe and efficient heating in your home.

At Claus Chimney Sweep & Repair, we provide expert fireplace and flue repair services to restore their safety and performance. Whether it’s repairing damaged firebrick, sealing cracks in the flue liner, or removing obstructions that hinder airflow, our skilled technicians ensure your system is in peak condition. Regular maintenance and timely repairs not only improve the efficiency of your fireplace but also enhance indoor air quality and prevent dangerous carbon monoxide leaks.

Smoke & Draft Solutions

f you’re experiencing issues with smoke backdrafts, poor ventilation, or an inefficient fireplace, it’s likely due to improper airflow in your chimney system. Smoke and draft problems can result from various factors, including blockages, negative air pressure, or an improperly sized flue. At Claus Chimney Sweep & Repair, we diagnose and resolve smoke and draft issues with tailored solutions such as installing chimney fans, adjusting damper settings, or resizing flues for optimal airflow. Proper ventilation ensures that smoke exits your home safely while maximizing the efficiency of your fireplace, keeping your living space warm, comfortable, and free from harmful smoke buildup.

Smoke Chamber Parging

The smoke chamber plays a crucial role in directing smoke from the fireplace into the flue while preventing heat and flames from escaping into surrounding walls. Over time, the uneven surfaces of an unlined or deteriorated smoke chamber can cause turbulence, leading to poor draft and increased creosote buildup. Claus Chimney Sweep & Repair offers professional smoke chamber parging to smooth and seal the chamber with heat-resistant refractory mortar. This process enhances airflow, reduces creosote accumulation, and improves the overall efficiency and safety of your fireplace system. A well-sealed smoke chamber not only enhances performance but also ensures compliance with modern fire safety codes.
