Effective Soot Removal in Falmouth, VA

Off-season creosote smell usually means humid air is hitting buildup inside the flue and releasing odor down through the damper. The fix is a thorough sweep, a flue deodorizer, and a top-sealing damper. Falmouth homes get this call regularly in humid shoulder season.

Stop using the fireplace and call us. A gas smell points to an incomplete burn or a fitting leak - either is a safety issue. We inspect the burner, pilot, gas valve, vent path, and the chimney for downdraft, and hand off to the gas company if the leak is on the utility side of the meter.

Same-day and next-day is our default for most inspections and sweeps. Peak burn-season weeks (late October through January) book up fastest, so book early when you can. Message us your Falmouth address and we'll give you the earliest realistic window.

Yes to all. We bill management companies directly, run portfolio pricing for multi-unit owners, handle pilot-light relight and tenant walkthroughs, and do realtor-mediated pre-close inspections and inspection-response repairs.

A Level 2 inspection follows NFPA 211 and is the standard for a property sale, after a chimney fire, lightning, or earthquake, or when changing the fuel type or appliance on the flue. It includes everything in a Level 1 plus internal video of the flue, an accessible attic/basement/crawlspace check of the chimney structure, and a written report.
