Chimney Sweep & Repair in West Orange Township, NJ

West Orange Township sits in Essex County, about 6 miles northwest of downtown Newark, and is home to roughly 48,600 people. The typical home in West Orange Township dates to around 1956 (about 35% 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 West Orange Township (about 81%) 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 4,000 residents per square mile, it is one of the denser parts of our service area, where homes often sit close together. We serve West Orange Township together with nearby communities such as City of Orange Township, South Orange Village Township and East Orange.

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.
