Chimney Services in Jonesboro, GA

Usually, and the honest route is normally a stainless liner rather than trying to restore an unlined flue. It preserves the original masonry — you are not rebuilding it — while giving you a continuous, code-compliant barrier inside it. We would rather do that than tell you a two-hundred-year-old unlined flue is fine.

Regularly, and with the care they need. The mortar question alone means historic work cannot be approached like a modern chimney, and we would sooner take longer than get it wrong.

The NFPA standard is an inspection every twelve months and a cleaning whenever deposits warrant one. In practice, if you light fires most weekends through a Georgia winter, book a clean each fall. If the fireplace gets used three times a year, an inspection alone may be all you need, and we will say so rather than sell you a brush.
