Chimney Sweep & Repair in Bloomfield Township, NJ
Bloomfield Township sits in Essex County, about 5 miles north of downtown Newark, and is home to roughly 53,800 people. The typical home in Bloomfield Township dates to around 1950 (about 50% of homes here were built before 1950). Chimneys from the mid-century building era are now well past 50 years old, and their flue liners are often cracked, undersized, or missing for the way modern furnaces and water heaters vent. Most homes in Bloomfield Township (about 78%) heat with natural or propane gas, and gas furnaces and water heaters vent through the chimney too — a blocked or deteriorated flue can push carbon monoxide back into the house. At roughly 10,100 residents per square mile, it is one of the denser parts of our service area, where homes often sit close together. We serve Bloomfield Township together with nearby communities such as Montclair Township, Belleville Township and Nutley Township.
New Jersey winters are cold and damp, with repeated freeze-thaw cycles, and storms and salt air along the Shore add moisture and wind stress — all of which are hard on chimney masonry, caps, and flashing.

Bloomfield Township Chimney FAQ
Should an older Bloomfield Township home get a flue liner inspection?
Homes from before about 1950 were often built with unlined or clay-tile-lined chimneys that were never meant for modern appliances. A Level 2 inspection with a camera scan shows whether tiles are cracked or missing before a problem turns into a fire or carbon monoxide risk.
