Chimney Sweeping
Professional chimney sweeping removes creosote buildup and soot accumulation to maintain safe fireplace operation. Our technicians use industry-standard equipment to clean flues, smoke chambers, and fireboxes while protecting your home's interior. Regular maintenance prevents dangerous chimney fires and improves heating efficiency for wood-burning systems.
Masonry Repairs
Our masonry services address cracked bricks, deteriorated mortar, and damaged chimney crowns. We use matching materials to preserve structural integrity while restoring aesthetic appeal. Technicians apply waterproof sealants to prevent future moisture damage in Portland's rainy climate.
Fireplace Installation
We install gas, wood, and electric fireplaces with proper venting and safety clearances. Our team handles permits and code compliance for new installations or conversions. We offer Regency brand products with energy-efficient options that qualify for tax rebates.
Chimney Leak Repair
Our leak repair service identifies and fixes water intrusion points in chimney systems. We apply specialized coatings and install chimney caps to prevent water damage to masonry and interior walls while extending system lifespan.
Chimney Relining
Chimney relining services install new stainless steel liners to ensure proper venting of combustion gases. This critical safety service improves efficiency and prevents carbon monoxide leaks while meeting current building code requirements.

The crew at chimney.com is highly professional, competent and nice to work with. They installed a new linear fireplace where no fireplace previously existed: gas line, bump out, stonework.the complete job. They even helped to install the TV afterwards. How great is that?! I now have the nicest fireplace in the neighborhood. It's beautiful as well as functional.

My family found this company and workers to be excellent. The workers were all friendly, courteous, hard-working and professional. If I could give them a higher rating based on our experience, I would. I would heartedly recommend them to anyone, based on our experience. By the way, they installed a linear gas fireplace for us.

Chimney.com did a great job! They fixed the issues, match my brick, worked with me regarding the timing of the work, communicated well, and left me with a clean yard and hearth.

Chimney.com did an excellent job installing our new gas fireplace. Brandon and Marlon communicated clearly with us regarding our specific fireplace needs, project updates, delivery time estimates, etc. Russ did a meticulous job with installation and ensured that he completed the job and that everything was working properly before leaving our house. Tiffany was super helpful during the installation process and with additional follow-up later on. I recommend chimney.com to anyone who has fire place projects.

I had a great experience with Chimney.com. They relined my chimney, installed the gas line and also a new gas log set. The entire process from my first request for an estimate to completion was less than one month which these days is very impressive. Tiffany provided excellent consultation and provided me with the materials for me to make an informed decision. Everything was done professionally and I am very happy with the outcome. I highly recommend Chimney.com.
