The Chimney Professional
Review from Record and Pilot Business Review
Last year in this country, there were an estimated 44,000 chimney fires, destroying $180 million in property and killing over 1,000 people. If your chimney has not been cleaned within the past two years, you may be inviting a chimney fire. Neglected chimneys tend to build up soot and creosote deposits which, if ignited, can burn up to 3,000° Fahrenheit.

Comments from customers;
"Thank you for coming at the end of your long day to clear our blocked chimney.
We are happy to have heat again in this cold weather! Warmly,"
Glen Cove, New York
"Augie you are a God send! I was sick for many weeks. I had flu-like symptoms,
disorientation and headaches. I underwent many diagnostic tests to look for the
cause of my illness without any findings."
"After you came to clean our fireplace chimney, you suggested that we also check
the gas chimney. We're so glad we did or we would have never known that we had
a blockage that was causing carbon monoxide to come into our house. After
mentioning this to the doctor, he tested me for carbon monoxide poisoning and I
tested positive. I can't thank you enough. Gratefully yours,"
Garden City, New York
"Prior to your first visit I was simply not appropriately sensitive to the need
for more modern vents and access guards for both our stove and microwave that
you covered on May 28th and for our washer-dryer vent on June 3rd."
"The little brochure about the potential hazard in dryer vents educated me on
the need for the two steps which we have now taken. It has also sensitized us
on the logic of annual reviews to assure that these two vents remain in good
condition and do not expose us to hazards. I believe strongly in capital
expenditures of the sort we have made this year! With many thanks,"
Lattingtown, New York
"We built our first fire in the little dining room fireplace you fixed up for
us. We love our new romantic fireplace! Many Thanks,"
Old Westbury, New York
"Here are the pictures I took of you and the little guys (raccoons) you removed
from my fireplace chimney! Hope you like them. I'm amazed how big they look.
The mother did return for them-so I guess all is well. Thanks,"
Port Washington, New York
