"We bought our first home on Adams Street last fall and had no idea how often chimneys need care. Trevor’s team walked us through the process, answered all our questions, and even helped us spot a minor crack we’d missed. They were on time, professional, and left our fireplace cleaner than we expected."
"After a raccoon got into my chimney last winter, I panicked and called Trevor Chimney. They removed the animal, cleaned the flue, and installed a custom cap—all in one visit. The team was patient with my questions and even sent photos of the damage for my insurance claim."
"I was nervous about the cost of a chimney inspection, but Trevor’s transparent pricing put me at ease. They found a small gap in the mortar that could’ve caused major water damage. Fixed it the same week—no upsells, just honest work."
"Our gas fireplace in the Colonial Revival home on Pleasant Street hadn’t been serviced in years. Trevor’s team cleaned the vents, tested the ignition, and gave us a clean bill of health. They even explained how to tell if our unit was running efficiently—something no one else had done."
"We had a chimney fire scare last month and needed a same-day inspection. Trevor’s crew arrived within hours, scoped the flue, and confirmed it was safe to use again. Their quick response and clear communication saved us a ton of stress."
"Our chimney sweep with Trevor was the smoothest home maintenance experience we’ve had. They arrived early, worked efficiently, and even gave us tips for minor upkeep. We’ll definitely use them again—and recommend them to our neighbors on Grove Street."

Clear a 3-foot path to your chimney, move outdoor furniture, and let us know if you have pets (our vacuums are loud). If you’ve had recent storms or noticed drafts, mention it—we’ll prioritize those areas during the inspection.
Our technician arrives, reviews your chimney’s history, and performs a Level 1 visual inspection. We’ll check for cracks, blockages, and creosote buildup, then use a camera to scope deeper if needed. You’re welcome to watch or ask questions—we’re happy to explain what we find.
After the sweep or repair, we vacuum every speck of soot and debris, leaving your home spotless. We’ll review our findings, provide photos, and give you a written report with recommendations. If we spot urgent issues, we’ll flag them and offer next steps—no pressure, just clear advice.
Proudly serving Franklin and these nearby communities.
Franklin’s cold, snowy winters stress chimneys more than in milder climates. Freeze-thaw cycles can crack masonry, while heavy snow can hide leaks that lead to water damage inside your flue. A well-maintained chimney withstands these conditions better, preventing costly repairs down the line.
If you haven’t had your chimney swept in over a year—or if you’ve burned more than two cords of wood—it’s time for a sweep. Other signs include a smoky smell in your home, soot around the fireplace, or difficulty starting a fire. Franklin’s older homes often hide buildup that’s invisible until we inspect.
A Level 1 inspection is a basic visual check of accessible parts, required annually for chimneys in good condition. A Level 2 inspection includes a video scan of the flue and is needed after major changes (like a chimney fire) or when buying/selling a Franklin home. We’ll recommend the right level for your setup.
You can use your fireplace immediately after a sweep—just light a small, hot fire first to burn off any residual cleaning solution. However, if we found damage during the inspection, we’ll advise waiting until repairs are done to avoid smoke issues.
Most Franklin homeowners pay between $180 and $450 for a standard sweep and Level 1 inspection. Costs vary based on chimney height, access difficulty, and whether repairs are needed. We provide free estimates, so you’ll know the exact price before we start.
Move pets to another room—the vacuums are powerful and the noise can be startling. Clear the area around the fireplace of decorations or furniture, and let us know if you have any concerns about pets, kids, or sensitive surfaces. We’ll handle the rest.
A persistent smoke odor often points to creosote trapped in the flue or a draft issue. Older Franklin homes with unused flues or poor insulation are especially prone to this. We’ll diagnose the source and recommend solutions, from sealing gaps to installing a new liner.
Inspect your chimney cap after every major storm—especially in Franklin, where spring winds can knock it loose or clog it with debris. A damaged cap lets water, animals, and sparks into your flue, leading to bigger problems. We include cap checks in our seasonal maintenance plans.
