Your fireplace should be a source of warmth and comfort, not worry. When your chimney is properly cleaned and maintained, you get consistent heat, clean air, and the confidence that your family is protected from fire hazards and carbon monoxide risks.
A professionally cleaned chimney burns more efficiently, which means better heat output and lower energy costs. You’ll notice improved airflow, reduced smoke problems, and that satisfying crackle of a fire that draws properly.
Most importantly, you sleep better knowing that dangerous creosote buildup has been removed and your chimney system is working exactly as it should.
SkyLuxe Construction brings decades of exterior home improvement experience to Shoreham’s unique coastal environment. We understand how the salt air and harsh Long Island winters affect chimney systems, and we know what it takes to keep them functioning safely.
As a family-run business, we treat every home like our own. Our team has been serving Suffolk County homeowners for years, building relationships based on honest work and reliable results.
We know Shoreham residents value quality and trust in their service providers. That’s exactly what you get with us—no overselling, no unnecessary repairs, just the chimney cleaning and maintenance your home actually needs.
We start with a complete inspection to assess your chimney’s condition and identify any areas that need attention. This isn’t just a quick look—we check for creosote buildup, structural issues, blockages, and anything that could affect your safety or efficiency.
Next comes the thorough cleaning using professional-grade equipment designed to remove soot, creosote, and debris from every part of your chimney system. We protect your home with drop cloths and use specialized vacuums to contain dust and mess.
Finally, we perform a post-cleaning inspection to ensure everything is clear and functioning properly. You’ll get a straightforward explanation of what we found, what we did, and any recommendations for future maintenance. No surprises, no pressure—just the facts you need to make informed decisions about your chimney.

Our chimney cleaning service includes complete creosote removal, soot and ash cleaning, debris clearing, and basic safety inspection. We clean the entire flue system, check the damper operation, and inspect the chimney cap and crown for damage.
Living in Shoreham means dealing with coastal weather that can be tough on chimney systems. Salt air accelerates wear on metal components, and winter storms can drive debris into your flue. We understand these local challenges and address them during every service call.
We also check for common Shoreham-area issues like animal intrusion, weather damage, and the effects of coastal moisture on masonry. If we spot any problems, we’ll explain exactly what needs attention and why, so you can prioritize repairs based on safety and budget.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends annual chimney inspections, but cleaning frequency depends on how much you use your fireplace. If you burn wood regularly during Shoreham’s cold winters, you’ll likely need cleaning every year.
Shoreham’s coastal environment can accelerate wear on chimney components, making annual inspections even more important for catching problems early. Even if you only use your fireplace occasionally, an annual inspection ensures your system is safe and ready when you need it.
Gas fireplaces typically need less frequent cleaning, but the inspection remains crucial for checking structural issues, animal intrusion, or ventilation problems that could affect safety.
Our comprehensive chimney cleaning includes removing all creosote, soot, and debris from the flue, smoke chamber, and firebox. We use specialized brushes and high-powered vacuums to ensure thorough cleaning without making a mess in your home.
We also inspect the damper, chimney cap, crown, and flashing for damage or wear. The cleaning process includes checking for blockages, animal nests, or structural issues that could affect your chimney’s performance or safety.
Most service calls combine cleaning with inspection since we need to see inside the system to clean it properly. You’ll get a clear explanation of what we found and any recommendations for maintenance or repairs.
Basic chimney cleaning and inspection in Shoreham typically ranges from $200 to $400, depending on your chimney’s condition and accessibility. The investment is minimal compared to the cost of emergency repairs or dealing with fire damage.
Most homeowners find that regular cleaning actually saves money by preventing expensive problems and improving efficiency. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees, so you know exactly what to expect.
Complex services like liner replacement or major repairs cost more, but you’ll get a detailed estimate before any work begins. We believe in transparent pricing and will never surprise you with unexpected charges.
Spring and early fall are ideal times for chimney service in Shoreham. Spring cleaning removes the winter’s creosote buildup and allows time for any needed repairs before next heating season begins.
Fall service ensures your system is ready for winter use and helps you avoid the rush when everyone calls during the first cold snap. Scheduling during off-peak times also means better availability and potentially lower costs.
If you use your fireplace regularly, schedule service at the same time each year. This creates a maintenance routine and helps catch problems before they become emergencies during peak heating season.
Call for service immediately if you notice white staining on the outside of your chimney, rust on the damper or firebox, or strong odors coming from your fireplace. These often indicate water damage, structural problems, or dangerous buildup.
Other red flags include animals or birds in the chimney, smoke entering your room instead of going up the flue, or visible damage to the chimney crown and cap. Poor fireplace performance, like difficulty starting fires or weak drafts, also suggests cleaning is needed.
If your fireplace hasn’t been used in over a year, have it inspected before lighting any fires. Don’t ignore warning signs—they typically get worse and more expensive over time.
Chimney cleaning is dangerous work that requires specialized equipment and expertise. Soot and creosote are carcinogenic and can cause serious breathing problems if not handled properly with professional-grade protective equipment.
Professional chimney sweeps know how to identify structural problems, safety hazards, and code violations that untrained homeowners often miss. We have the tools and experience to clean thoroughly without damaging your chimney or making a mess in your home.
The cost of professional service is much less than buying all the necessary equipment yourself, and you get the peace of mind that comes with proper insurance and guaranteed results. Why risk your safety and your home’s protection when professional help is so affordable?
