Our chimney sweep services include standard fireplace cleaning, free standing wood stoves cleaning (Unfortunately, we do not clean wood stove inserts unless they have a connected liner running up the chimney), and zero clearance fireplace cleaning (pre-fabricated fireplaces commonly found in apartments and condominiums and newer homes). We also perform chimney repair services such as chimney rebuilds or tuck-pointing for degrading chimney mortar joints.
Have a leaking chimney? We sell stainless steel chimney caps (rain and wind caps), as well as repair chimney flashing or install new chimney flashing. Damper broken? We install top closing dampers.
We also fix degrading chimney crowns and flue tiles, as well as chimney moss removal and chimney waterproofing. See our stellar reviews on Yelp and Facebook and and call us to get a free quote on what a chimney sweep costs.

Metro Chimney specializes in Standard Fireplace cleaning. During the cleaning, we will care of the interior of your house by laying down runner blankets from the doorway of entry.
Metro Chimney can take care of all of your wood stove cleaning and maintenance needs. Please specify whether free standing or inserted with or without a liner.
Zero Clearance Fireplaces are factory built units made from sheet metal or cast iron. They are also known as prefabricated fireplaces because they come ready to install the unit.
Metro Chimney offers volume discounts on chimney cleaning for multi-unit dwellings. call us to come out and give you a bid for the chimney units in your complex.
We sell standard wind and rain caps, stainless, warranty provided by the manufacturer.
When your internal damper breaks, we install top closing dampers that are warrantied for life by the manufacturer. Traditional dampers are located in the “throat” of a fireplace, and hard built into it.They are made of cast-iron.
The chimney crown, also called the “chimney wash” or “splay”, sits at the top of a masonry chimney. It covers and seals the top of the chimney from the flue tile to the chimney edge. The crown is necessary to keep rain out of the chimney chase.
Many chimneys have step flashing. This type of flashing is called this as it resembles steps on a chimney. We do not like to install this type of flashing as it can become pulled up by wind, or other service men walking on your roof.

He cleaned it, and gave us detailed information about what size fire would be the most effective for our type of fireplace, and all kinds of other helpful stuff. That guy knows a LOT about fireplaces and we appreciated all the information! Left the work area spotless. We are very impressed with this company and will have them back next year for another cleaning!

Clayton did a great job on our 2 chimneys this summer. He worked through the very hot August days. We had another company do the chimneys a few years back,... read more but they didn't do it right.

Clayton was a lifesaver. After calling in another chimney cleaner that did a total crap job I called Clayton to come in and actually thoroughly clean our chimney, took... read more photos and provided recommendations on how to fix some of the issues we were experiencing. It was clear he really knew his stuff and was committed to doing the job right as well as educating me on my chimney and maintenance. His prices were fair especially considering how much care he took to make sure everything around our chimney was in excellent order.
He did such a great job on our chimneys that I called him back to do some masonry repairs and adding new chimney caps on the outside as well as some repairs on the inside. It took a couple of trips and some scheduling because when working with a chimney weather is an important factor but it was well worth the wait to know that it was done right and I know that we are fire and smoke safe from here on out.
I wouldn't go to anyone else ever again for chimney maintenance or repairs.

We were very close to having a chimney fire and had no idea because we had had professionals out every year. I can't tell you how much I respect this man and value the service he provided us. He probably saved our lives.

Sharon Wenger2024-10-09Clayton provided excellent service at a reasonable cost. He was able to remove far more dirt and soot than the previous companies we had hired, as you can see in the photos.

We've used him twice now, no complaints!Richard Smiraglia2024-09-22Clayton did some important work on the fireplace at the time we purchased this house five years ago, and was very helpful when we moved in. Since then we've had him inspect and maintain it annually. He is readily available, reliable, friendly and incredibly helpful. We rely on him to allow us to enjoy this fine feature as well as to help us understand specifics of the maintenance. We are very grateful to be able to rely on Metro Chimney.Ashlie Rapp2024-09-18Clayton really knows his business and is the most thorough sweep I've ever had. He provided photos of problem areas and explained verbally and in writing on steps to take to resolve and prevent further, possibly dangerous issues. We will call him every year.Cheryl Rivera2024-09-16Clayton did an excellent job considering how old my chimney is. He was prompt, and very clean as to not get debris in my very light carpet. Not knowing much about chimneys having lived in Hawaii for a good portion of my life, I feel that he is very knowledgeable and trustworthy.Jennifer Sitton2024-09-16Clayton has cleaned my chimney and done my yearly inspections needed for insurance for the last couple years. He's always done a fantastic job. He's very thorough, knows his stuff, and always ensures he leaves the house and area around the chimney cleaner than he found it! He's responsive in scheduling, always on time, and I can always count on him to be there when he says he will be - and he's reasonably priced for the thoroughness of his cleaning! I would absolutely recommend Clayton and Metro Chimney for any chimney cleaning/inspection needs!Carolyn Tucker2024-09-15Metro Chimney is the BEST!!! We called for an estimate and Clayton came out the next day. He checked out what needed to be done then gave us the list and what it would cost (way better than other estimates). We agreed on the dates he would be out and he was always on time. He cleaned up everything after each time he was out - we required enough work that it took him several work days. Everything looks great! The actual price was the same as the estimate - no over or extra charges. Clayton was efficient and easy to work with. If you need your chimney cleaned, upgraded or fixed, he is the guy to contact.Christopher Aedo2024-09-15Clayton was great to work with. He got me on his schedule at a really convenient time, and kept let me know ahead of time that he was still running on schedule and would be there on time. He arrived right on time and got to work quickly. My chimney would not come apart where it was supposed to, so he had to change plans and clean it from the inside, which went great. When he was done, he cleaned up everything and left my wood burning stove looking like new!
