Chimney Sweeping
A clean chimney is essential for both fire safety and efficient heating. Over time, soot and creosote build up inside your chimney, increasing the risk of chimney fires and reducing ventilation.

Breathe easy and enjoy a worry-free fire season—schedule your chimney sweep today!
Chimney & Fireplace Repairs
Your chimney weathers everything Lakewood’s seasons throw at it—from snowfall to intense sun exposure. Over time, cracks, loose bricks, and missing caps can lead to costly damage or even safety hazards. That’s where we come in. Our team uses live-scan video technology to assess your chimney inside and out. Whether it’s tuckpointing, chimney relining, or fireplace repairs, we restore your fireplace’s safety, efficiency, and charm—one brick at a time.
Fireplace Installation
Ready to upgrade your home with a new fireplace or stove? At Midtown Chimney Services of Lakewood, we specialize in installing wood-burning, gas, propane, electric, and pellet appliances. Whether you’re looking for a rustic wood-burning stove or a modern gas insert, we ensure a seamless and code-compliant installation. Our NFI-certified team ensures every installation is up to local building codes, maximizing both efficiency and aesthetics. We also offer chimney relining services, ensuring your flue is properly insulated and venting safely.
Dryer Vent Cleaning
A clogged dryer vent is a fire hazard waiting to happen. Over time, lint, pet hair, and debris accumulate in the vent, restricting airflow and creating dangerous back pressure. The heat from your dryer’s electric element can then ignite the buildup, leading to a fire. Annual dryer vent cleaning keeps your home safe, your dryer running efficiently, and your energy bills lower. Don’t wait until your dryer takes too long to dry—schedule a cleaning today!
Total Water Protection
Water damage is one of the most common and costly issues for chimneys. Moisture seeps into masonry, causing cracks, brick erosion, mold growth, and interior water stains. Our comprehensive waterproofing services protect your chimney and home from Lakewood’s unpredictable weather. We offer professional sealants, chimney caps, and flashing repairs to keep water out and extend the life of your chimney. Don’t wait for leaks to appear—protect your fireplace now with our total water protection solutions!
Gas Fireplace Service and Repair
Gas fireplaces provide warmth, convenience, and efficiency, but like any heating appliance, they require regular maintenance and occasional repairs to keep them operating safely. Our team specializes in servicing and repairing all types of gas fireplaces, inserts, and stoves, ensuring they function efficiently and safely year-round. Whether your gas fireplace won’t ignite, is producing an unusual odor, or needs a tune-up, our certified professionals are ready to help.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are There Chimney Inspection Regulations?
You bet! Before honoring their warranties, most manufacturers require consumers to follow the regulations set forth by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). For stoves that burn cord wood and bio-fuel pellets, the recommendation is an annual sweep. Masonry fireplaces and factory-built fireplaces should be cleaned when the soot level reaches 1/8” thick on the inside walls of the chimney.
How Often Does a Fireplace Need to be Cleaned?
The NFPA’s Document 211 reads, “Chimneys, fireplaces, and vents shall be inspected at least once a year for soundness, freedom from deposits, and correct clearances. Cleaning, maintenance, and repairs shall be done if necessary.” It’s advised that you have your fireplace checked annually, regardless of how often you use it. Even if you only use your fireplace so often, you ought to arrange an inspection to verify that your chimney and fireplace lack issues such as loose dampers, leaves or nesting debris blocking the flue, or broken air shutters.
Do I Need an Inspection If I Don’t Use my Fireplace Often?
The short answer is, yes! Even if you rarely or never use your fireplace, your chimney is still exposed to the elements, can collect debris, and may develop hidden structural problems. Scheduling a routine chimney inspection can prevent costly repairs, improve home safety, and give you peace of mind—even if your fireplace stays cold all year!
Do Gas Fireplaces Need to Be Cleaned?
Yes! While gas fireplaces burn cleaner than wood-burning fireplaces, they still require regular cleaning and maintenance to ensure safety, efficiency, and longevity. Even though gas burns without producing creosote, dust, soot, and carbon deposits can still accumulate inside the fireplace, on the burner, logs, glass, and venting system.
