THE CHIMNEY SPECIALISTS SERVICES

Chimney Relining

Many chimneys appear to be in fine condition on the outside, but inside it could be a completely different situation. Yesterday’s chimneys were not designed for venting today’s more energy-efficient appliances. The inside – the part you can’t see – is what really counts when it comes to safety and efficiency.

There may be cracks and even pieces missing from the original clay liner. Older chimneys may not even have a clay liner. Mortar and bricks may be loose and falling, in addition to other deterioration. There may creosote build-up, or carbon monoxide may be leaking back into your home or sleeping quarters.

It happens thousands of time a year. Chimney defects result in injury and death from fire and from carbon monoxide poisoning.

Take a look inside your chimney.

Fortunately, all these problems can usually be corrected without completely rebuilding the chimney. The Chimney Specialists, Inc., will revitalize your chimney with a HomeSaver® Pro™ Chimney Relining System.

HomeSaver® Pro™ chimney relining systems fit every chimney configuration, and each system comes with a lifetime warranty.

The patented gas tight interlock system is unsurpassed in strength. HomeSaver® Pro™ has been tested and listed by Underwriters Laboratories to their highest standards and it comes with a lifetime warranty. This warranty includes damage caused by both fire and corrosion.

DuraTech™ Thermal Tech blanket insulation, encased between dual walls of stainless steel, offers the optimum in safety and performance. It keeps the outer wall of the chimney cool, while ensuring high flue gas temperatures for optimum draft performance.

DuraTech’s sleek inner and outer wall are made of 430 stainless shell. The inner wall is 25% thicker than competitive chimneys for an extra margin of safety.

Engineered Excellence

The DuraTech™ Chimney System is designed for use with gravity-vented appliances, including wood stoves; fireplaces; appliances using oil, gas or coal; and zero clearance fireplaces that are factory-built.

 

    • .016″ 430 stainless steel outer wall
    • .020″ 430 stainless steel inner-liner
    • Twist-lock end rings

Our Services

Chimney Services

The Chimney Specialists, Inc. is a full-service chimney company, specializing in Chimney Sweeping, Construction, Relining, Repairs, Installations, Inspections, and Water Proofing. We incorporate the latest digital color chimney inspection camera system to quickly diagnose and efficiently complete your job.

We proud to offer the following services:

Clean & Inspect Chimney Systems Service:

Preventive maintenance is always more cost-effective than repairs that could have been avoided. Annual inspections are critical for chimneys used regularly, but even if used occasionally, a chimney system should be routinely inspected and cleaned if necessary. Your system includes the appliance, any necessary connecting pipe and the chimney itself.

Inspections and cleanings include:

    • Determine chimney integrity for all types of fuel
    • Catch problems early, before they cause expensive trouble
    • Show changes over time, like seeing a dentist regularly
    • Reassure peace of mind
    • Save money, hassles and potential lawsuits if the property is for sale or rent
    • Are very neat. We guarantee no mess!

Repair Chimney Fire Damage Service:

Chimney tile liners can crack during a chimney fire, and can be repaired by relining. A look at the inside of this chimney shows how fire has attacked this flue. The original clay liner has eroded away; pieces of it are even missing. In severe cases, the chimney erosion will lead to partial or complete internal collapse, blocking the flue and sending these poisonous gases into the home.

But fortunately, the problems of a deteriorating wood or fireplace flue can be corrected. Relining involves inserting a new central lining or flue inside an existing chimney. It is the most effective, affordable way to repair chimney damage or to upgrade an unlined, dangerous chimney to acceptable safety standards. The repair is completed quickly and with minimal expense compared to rebuilding the chimney from the ground up.

Waterproofing Service:

There are approximately 40 million masonry chimneys in North America, and the most common problem with these structures is water penetration. All new and existing masonry chimneys are susceptible to water damage and, even if repaired, chimneys will continue to deteriorate if they are not protected.

ChimneySaver®, & Crown Coat™, are the first water repellents specifically developed to protect chimneys from the severe weather conditions to which they are exposed.

ChimneySaver® is a water repellent, not a water sealer. The difference could save you hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars in repairs because sealers can actually damage masonry. Unlike waterproofing sealers that remain on the surface and trap water vapors, SaverSystems products penetrate deep enough to protect masonry from destructive water penetration.

Masonry Construction & Repair Service:

Our specialty is chimney repair and construction. Our craftsmen have years of experience and are skilled in all phases of masonry work. We can tackle most any project, light commercial. We pride ourselves on doing the job right the first time, and at a price you can afford.

    • Firebox repair
    • Fireplace construction

Gas logs and gas fireplaces are a plastic experience, just not the real thing. Humankind has evolved with real wood fire, and the quality of light rays and heat radiated from a wood fire cannot be imitated by a controlled gas flame piped in from…who knows where.

The crackling of burning logs and the gentle glow of wood flames – all combined to provide the peace and relaxation we are looking for at the end of a cold winter’s eve. Start a real fire today with Bellfires Efficient open hearth fireplaces. We have fireplaces for new construction, remodeling and retrofit/repair of existing units. Artisan mantles in stock to complete your showpiece.

Chimney Caps & Top Sealing Fireplace Dampers

Eliminate moisture damage. Moisture entering your chimney erodes masonry and mortar joints and will cause damper and firebox rust-out that leads to expensive repairs. The Chimney Top protects your flue from moisture damage.

Prevent bird and animal invasion. Chimney tops protect your chimney from nesting birds, squirrels, raccoons, and other disease-carrying animals.

Protect against airborne embers and sparks. The Chimney Top's 18-gauge mesh reduces the risk of fires caused by airborne embers and sparks escaping from your chimney flue.
Guard against flue blockage. Leaves and debris entering a chimney may cause a flue blockage. This can lead to fire, smoke damage, and even carbon monoxide poisoning. The Chimney Top guards against these dangers.

Hearth Pads

Hearth Classics Hearth Pads are available in two different series, Premium and Elegant. Each series provides different exciting combinations of tile and options to make your pad uniquely yours. Pads are available in both corner and flat wall applications and work with wood, gas and pellet-burning stoves. Tested to Underwriter's Laboratories (UL) standards, Hearth Classics provide solid elegance to any home.

Classic Edge Hearth Pads have a smooth, elegant profile inspired by cast stoves of today and yesterday. Made with ThermaShield technology, they are fully non-combustible and provide an R-value of R=1.01. There is no other hearth pad like it. Unlike pads with wood frames, our profile edge is a single welded frame that holds up to the heating and cooling of your stove without cracking at the joints.
