Chimney Cleaning Towson MD | Miller’s Chimney & Hearth

Trusted Chimney Services in Towson, MD

Chimney services encompass a broad range of maintenance and repair tasks beyond just sweeping. These services may include inspecting the chimney structure and flue to ensure there are no cracks, leaks, or blockages. Other common services include repairing or replacing damaged chimney caps and crowns, fixing or updating the chimney flashing (the seal between the chimney and the roof), and installing chimney liners that protect the masonry from heat and corrosion. These services are crucial for maintaining the structural integrity and functionality of your chimney.

Chimney Sweeping

Chimney sweeping enables the safe operation of your fireplace and chimney. Over time, burning wood or other materials in your fireplace leaves a buildup of soot and creosote, a flammable byproduct of wood combustion. Regular chimney sweeps remove these deposits to prevent chimney fires and ensure that harmful gases are properly vented out of your home. Typically, it's recommended to have your chimney swept at least once a year, ideally before the start of the winter season when fireplaces are used most frequently.

Chimney Maintenance

Regular maintenance is key to extending the life of your chimney and helping it operate safely and efficiently. This involves not only the annual sweeping and routine inspections but also paying attention to signs of wear and tear.

It’s important to look out for signs of moisture damage (like damp patches on the walls around the chimney), white staining on the chimney exterior (a sign of salt deposits from moisture), and any unusual odors or drafts. Promptly addressing these signs with professional chimney maintenance services can prevent costly repairs and maintain the safety of your home in Towson, MD.

Reducing Fire Hazards

In our cold climate, creosote, a combustion byproduct, can gradually accumulate on your chimney's inner walls. Highly flammable, it poses a significant fire hazard. Our professional chimney cleaning services prioritize safety by removing this creosote buildup, minimizing the risk of chimney fires and safeguarding your home.

Improving Air Quality

Accumulated soot and debris can compromise proper ventilation, releasing harmful pollutants into your home. Our chimney cleaning services help your chimney remain free from obstructions, encouraging the efficient expulsion of smoke and gases and creating a healthier living environment for you and your family.

Investing in Chimney Longevity

Consider regular chimney cleaning as an investment in the longevity of your chimney system. By removing corrosive creosote and debris, we prevent structural damage, preserving the integrity of your chimney over time. This proactive approach reduces the likelihood of costly repairs and extends the lifespan of your cherished chimney.

Honest company that took care of my clients on both a buy and sell. Reasonable, solid repairs, responsive and definitely recommending to other clients.

Cheryl M.

I am so happy I found this company after being referred to Miller's from a real estate agent. From start to finish, I have had a great experience. Chris provided me with an honest and reasonable estimate, Rocky took great care preforming the work to my chimney and was very professional and conscientious. He went out of his way to help me schedule additional work I had asked him about for my pellet stove. Andrew and Brandon arrived promptly to clean my pellet stove and were very helpful with providing me information on care and operation. I am so appreciative for such professional service.

Exceeded all of our expectations! Chris put together a package deal that couldn't be refused! Jesse and Jimmy, the installers, were great! The actual installation was the easiest part of their day. Required 4 guys to get the 550 lb pellet stove up 12 steps, I'm sure there was some moaning, but never in front of myself, very professional. After installed, Jesse and Jimmy took an extra 90 minutes and made sure the stove was running properly. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MILLER'S CHIMNEY; we are hiring them to put in a second pellet stove.

Always professional and knowledgeable. As a realtor, they have been invaluable in helping me to help my clients!

Jeannette W.

Just had a service call with Brandon Mills and his helper. They were very nice and quickly diagnosed the gas fireplace problem. A simple fix. Brandon also took the time to explain why the problem occurred and made a few suggestions. We will be giving a call back to Miller's for any fireplace service needs in the future!!! Additionally, the person that took my call and scheduled my appointment was excellent. Five star service all the way around!!!

Chris and Jimmy are the best! Very professional job, honest assessment of my 22-year-old fireplace and no up–selling on repairs you really don't need that I have experienced with other chimney firms. Very fair prices and you simply cannot go wrong using this firm and Chris!!

Miller's did a cleaning and changed out some piping for me and made the whole process very easy and painless from the front office to the men doing the work. I would recommend them to family & friends and will definitely use them again next year! Keep up the great job!!!!

Chris K.

Would definitely recommend using this company. I was referred to them through another happy customer by chance and am very happy I called. We just had a blaze king wood insert, liner, and crown installed and every step of the process was explained and completed professionally. We had been trying to get this done for the last 8 months and had nearly given up due to "other" companies lack of follow through with everything from quotes to helping us find the right product. Right from the start, Chris came out and had us a quote in hand the same day before he departed. Not a single other company we had out here was able to do that! We knew what we wanted, they had one, and the price was right, so pulled the trigger right away. On game day, Chris came out to help Quinten and Eric with moving the heavy stuff and then they got to work. Solid work done on our complex job, and they even pointed out issues with the bricks on our chimney and ensured they were replaced with new bricks. It's hard to find contractors with ethics that do professional work nowadays who do what's right instead of taking the quick buck just to get done faster. I would do business with this company again and recommend them to anyone in need of a new wood burning stove. Shout out to Quentin and Eric for the install and to Chris for making happy customers!
