What Our Customers Say

"I’ve burned wood for 15 years, and this was the first time someone actually told me straight up what my chimney needed, no upsells, no ‘your chimney’s dangerous’ scare tactics. They found creosote buildup and gave me a fair price for removal. No one else in Maspeth would do that."

Maspeth, near 46th Ave

"My dryer was running forever, and I figured it was just breaking down from age. Turns out the vent was clogged with lint, enough to be a fire hazard. These guys cleared it out in 40 minutes and charged me $100. No one else would admit it was that simple."

JC

"I called three other chimney sweeps in Maspeth, and they all wanted $250+ for a basic sweep. Acacia came out, did the job for $130, and even checked my dryer vent for free. That’s the kind of service you can trust."

LC
Linda Chen
Maspeth, near Myrtle Ave

"I’ve had my chimney swept before, but no one ever explained why creosote was dangerous or how to prevent it. These guys did, and they didn’t try to sell me a new chimney liner. Just honest work at a fair price. That’s rare in Maspeth."

TO

SP
Susan Park

"I’ve burned wood since I moved to Maspeth 10 years ago, and this was the first time someone actually listened to my concerns instead of trying to sell me something. They found a small crack in my chimney and told me exactly what it would cost to fix it. No pressure, no hidden fees. That’s how you know you’re dealing with pros."

Simple Process

How It Works

1

Call for a Free Estimate (No Pressure)

Give us a call at (929) 488-1079, and we’ll ask a few quick questions about your chimney or dryer vent. No sales pitch, no upselling. We’ll tell you exactly what the job will cost before we show up. If you’re not sure, we’ll explain what to look for and whether you need a sweep or just an inspection.

2

We Bring the Right Gear for the Job

No half-measures. We bring brushes, vacuums, cameras, and creosote scrapers, whatever your chimney needs. If we find something unexpected, like a crack or animal nest, we’ll tell you before we start digging. No surprises, no hidden charges. Just the work your chimney needs.

3

Cleaning & Inspection: Done Right

We sweep from the top down, vacuum every inch, and check for damage. For dryer vents, we clear lint from the vent and the ductwork inside your walls. No shortcuts. If we miss something, you’ll know it, because we stand by our work. That’s how we’ve kept Maspeth homeowners coming back for years.

Our Promise

Why Choose Us

You’ll Never Pay for Work You Don’t Need

Other chimney sweeps in Maspeth love throwing in ‘extra’ services, ‘your chimney needs a liner!’ or ‘you should get a new cap!’ We don’t do that. If your chimney just needs a sweep, that’s what you pay for. No hidden fees, no upsells. Just a clean chimney and a fair price. That’s how we’ve kept Maspeth homeowners happy for years.

Maspeth’s Humid Climate Means Creosote Builds Fast

Maspeth’s damp winters and older homes make creosote a bigger problem than in drier areas. We see chimneys with thick buildup after just a few months of use. Our crew checks for it every time and tells you straight up if your chimney’s at risk. No guessing, no surprises, just the facts so you can decide what to do.

We Answer the Phone: Even on Weekends

Need a chimney sweep on a Saturday? Call us. We don’t play phone tag or make you leave a message. If we’re not available, we’ll tell you when we can be there. No runaround, no waiting weeks for a callback. That’s how we’ve built trust with Maspeth homeowners who need reliable service.

Your Insurance Likely Requires Regular Chimney Sweeps

Most home insurance policies in New York require chimney sweeps at least once a year. We’ll give you a simple inspection report so you’ve got proof for your insurer. No hassle, no extra cost, just a clean chimney and a document to keep you covered. Better to have it and not need it than the other way around.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a chimney sweep run in Maspeth, and why do some pros charge double what others do?

A standard chimney sweep in Maspeth runs $120-$180 for most homes, depending on the chimney’s height and condition. Some companies charge $250 or more because they upsell ‘inspections’ or ‘add-on services’ you don’t actually need. We don’t do that. Our price covers the cleaning, a quick visual check for obvious issues, and a clear explanation of what we found. If your chimney has heavy creosote buildup or needs repairs, we’ll tell you upfront, and give you a separate quote for those. No one in Maspeth should pay $300 for a basic sweep when the job is straightforward.

My dryer vent in Maspeth smells like burning fabric, is that normal, and how much will it cost to fix?

That smell means lint and debris are clogging your dryer vent, which can turn into a fire hazard. Dryer vent cleaning in Maspeth starts at $150, but if the vent is severely blocked, it could run $200-$250. We’ll clear the vent, check for damage, and show you exactly what we removed. Unlike some companies, we don’t charge extra for ‘deep cleaning’, if the vent needs brushing, that’s included in the price. Ignoring it could lead to a house fire, so don’t wait until you see flames.

I heard creosote is dangerous, how do I know if my chimney in Maspeth has it, and what should I do?

Creosote is a sticky, tar-like buildup that forms when wood burns incompletely. If your chimney has black, glossy deposits (Stage 2 creosote) or hard, crusty layers (Stage 3), it’s a serious fire risk. We’ll inspect your chimney during a sweep and tell you if creosote is present. If it’s light, a cleaning will remove it. If it’s thick or hardened, we’ll recommend how often you should schedule sweeps, usually every 1-2 years for heavy use. Maspeth’s older homes often have chimneys with creosote, so don’t assume yours is safe just because it’s been a while.

Can I cut costs by cleaning my own chimney, or should I hire a pro in Maspeth?

DIY chimney sweeps are a bad idea. You can’t reach the top of the chimney safely, and missing creosote or soot can lead to a chimney fire. Hiring a pro like us costs $120-$180 but ensures the job is done right. We use the right tools, spot hidden issues, and follow safety standards. Plus, if your chimney needs repairs, we’ll tell you, no guesswork. In Maspeth, where winters are long, a proper sweep is cheaper than dealing with a fire or carbon monoxide poisoning.

Why does my chimney in Maspeth need sweeping if I don’t use the fireplace much?

Even if you rarely use your fireplace, creosote and soot build up from moisture, dust, and occasional use. A chimney left uncleaned can develop dangerous blockages or even rust from condensation. We recommend at least one sweep per year for homes in Maspeth, even if the fireplace isn’t your main heat source. It’s a small cost now to avoid a much bigger problem later. Think of it like changing your car’s oil, you don’t wait until it breaks down.

Do you offer deals for Maspeth homeowners who book both chimney and dryer vent cleaning?

Yes. If you book both a chimney sweep and dryer vent cleaning at the same time, we’ll knock $20 off the total. For example, a chimney sweep ($150) plus a dryer vent cleaning ($200) would normally cost $350, but with the discount, it’s $330. We do this because many Maspeth homes have both systems, and it’s more efficient for us to handle them together. Just mention the bundle when you call, and we’ll apply the discount right away.

How to book a chimney sweep in Maspeth without sitting on a waitlist for weeks?

Call us at (929) 488-1079 and ask for an ‘express sweep.’ We block off same-day or next-day slots for homeowners who need their chimney cleaned urgently. If you’re in Maspeth and available between 8 AM and 6 PM on weekdays, we can often fit you in within 24 hours. No waiting lists, no ‘call back later’, just a confirmed time. We prioritize local customers who need their fireplace ready for the season.

I’ve seen ads for ‘free chimney inspections’, are those really free, or is there a catch?

‘Free inspections’ usually mean the company will upsell you on repairs or add-on services you don’t need. We don’t do that. If you call us for a quote, we’ll give you a honest assessment of your chimney’s condition and a clear price for any work. No pressure to buy extra services. In Maspeth, where some companies lowball the inspection and then hit you with hidden fees, we’d rather charge a fair price upfront than trick you into paying more later.
