It’s a closely knit community within Jefferson County, KY, with a number of older, historic homes. When historic chimneys need service – or when a newer chimney just isn’t acting right – homeowners count on American Chimney & Fireplace to solve the problem.
Chimney Sweeping
Chimney sweeping involves removing creosote and soot from a chimney flue. This work should be scheduled once a year.
Our trained chimney technicians use a variety of tools and special equipment to clean chimney flues in Middleton, KY, and throughout Jefferson County.
Creosote removal
Removing creosote will significantly reduce the chance of a chimney fire, which can start with as little as 1/8 of an inch of stuck-on creosote. Most reported chimney fires – and some house fires – are started by creosote.
Debris removal
Leaves, twigs, falling fruit, small animal nests and other debris will narrow the flue passage in a chimney and hinder drafting. The result can be smoke and deadly carbon monoxide moving into the home.
We provide expert cleaning of chimneys and fireboxes.
