Chimney and duct service in Passaic County
Chimney work in Passaic County splits into two quite different jobs ten minutes apart. In Paterson and Passaic it is largely inspection work — a camera scan of a stack that carries several flues and has served several appliances, to establish what is connected to what and whether the walls between them are intact.

The short answer
In Clifton it is mostly routine annual sweeping, caps and the occasional crown. We do both, and which one you get depends on the building rather than on the town line.
What we find on these jobs
In the older housing the recurring finding is a stack carrying more than one flue, added to at different times, with separating walls that have not been visible since they were built. Where such a wall has failed, exhaust from one appliance can reach another dwelling, and that is a Level 2 question rather than a sweep. We also find unlined masonry regularly, which is not automatically a problem but does mean heat and combustion gases meet bare brick, so a cracked joint matters more than it would in a lined flue. In the newer housing the findings are seasonal instead: a winter of creosote, a cap that has corroded or lifted, a crown with its first hairline cracks.

There was a lot of shaking in the chimney at night because the cap had come loose. They took it out and replaced it with a safe locking model, fixed the broken tile below, cleaned up the mess, and checked the…
The formation of water stains around the fireplace was prevented by repairing the flashing. The sealing seems to be well-done and secure. At last, weatherproofing feels solid. Thorough focus on detail.
Questions from Passaic County
My building has two apartments and one chimney. What does the visit involve?
A camera scan first, to establish that each appliance has its own properly separated flue and that the wall between them is intact. Where it is not, exhaust from one unit can reach the other — and that is worth knowing before anything gets swept.
What does an unlined chimney change about the job?
It means heat and combustion gases meet bare masonry rather than a liner. Plenty of unlined chimneys have worked for a century, but they are the ones where a cracked joint matters most, which is why we scan before we sweep rather than after.
Is the work different in Clifton than in Paterson?
Usually, yes. Clifton's housing is mostly newer and lined, so the work there tends to be routine sweeping, caps and the occasional crown. Paterson's older stock asks the harder questions and gets the camera first.
