A Family Owned Company You Can Trust
Anchorage, KY, is an historic home rule-class city in Jefferson County, KY. American Chimney & Fireplace has served this entire area since 2007, providing chimney sweeping, inspection and rebuilding services. From the University of Louisville across the city to I-265, our crews are always ready to help our customers improve their chimney and fireplace experiences.
Chimney Sweeping
We provide complete chimney sweeping services for our Anchorage, KY, customers. There are two important reasons to have your chimney swept and cleaned once a year:
- To remove flammable creosote buildups that are the cause of most chimney fires.
- To remove leaves, twigs, animal nests and other debris that can impede drafting and cause smoke and deadly carbon monoxide to back up into your Anchorage, KY, home.
We use industry-grade equipment to remove creosote and debris from chimney flues. We also clean creosote and soot from firebox surfaces.
Chimney & Fireplace Inspections
Annual chimney inspections are recommended by all U.S. fire safety agencies, including the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). A basic safety inspection covers everything from the chimney cap at the top of the chimney to the firebox that feeds it.
Our skilled technicians know how to spot early signs of problems and get them fixed quickly before they become major issues. Along with yearly inspections, we provide special inspections for when you’re selling your Anchorage, KY, home, when you’re modifying your chimney system, and in cases when serious damage is known or suspected.
Firebox Repair
Cracks in a fireplace’s fire bricks and refractory panels can lead to the escape of intense heat, flames and dangerous combustion gases. We repair and rebuild masonry fireboxes according to code and in a way that gives them a beautiful appearance once again.
