The Importance of Chimney Masonry Repair

Brick chimneys not only add character to your home but also serve a crucial role in ensuring the safety and efficiency of your fireplace.

We have had Levi twice now. The first year Levi came and did an amazing job not only for me, but my father as well. Levi is timely, professional, but my favorite personable. The other thing about MTCS is their website works and the phone staff is great as well. Levi just cleaned our Kuma wood stove for this year and once again showed up prompt with a friendly personality. He got right to work and did another fantastic job. Lastly, MTCS and Levi not only does a fantastic job, but their pricing will beat the pants off of anyone in our area. Thank you Levi and MTCS for being phenomenal at what you do.

Byron is the best! Beau serviced my freestanding gas stove for the 1st time in 12 years. He did diagnose a bit of a faulty pilot assembly. After replacing the pilot assembly there were some issues with the flame pulling off the thermocouple resulting with the stove refusing to stay burning for longer than 1 minute. After trying several fixes while consulting with Byron and even the Quadrafire techs the problem still remained. Byron came out personally a couple of days later and fixed the problem in less than 10 minutes. His experience really came through for us.
Beau and Byron will certainly to service our gas stove as well as our wood burner that Byron actually installed about 15 years ago.
Don't hesitate to call Mid Town for your fireplace and stove services.

We moved into a home with a faulty fireplace and couldn’t be happier that we called Midtown Chimney of Franktown. Mike showed up promptly and was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He clearly explained all of our replacement options and helped us choose the best solution without any pressure.

When additional electrical work was needed, Mike went above and beyond by arranging for an electrician to come out the very same day. The coordination was seamless, and the end result is a beautiful fireplace that we absolutely love.

What truly sets Mike and his team apart is their integrity and kindness. He even followed up afterward to make sure everything was working perfectly. Honest people, quality workmanship, and fair pricing are hard to find—but Midtown Chimney delivers on all three. We would recommend them every single time!

I’ve been using Midtown Chimney Sweeps for 3 years now. They were recommended by my home appraiser and I’ve been extremely pleased with their services ever since. Their initial inspection as part of the home sale process was very thorough, and their subsequent services have been excellent as well

Midtown Chimney Sweeps, Daniel Ferreyra and his assistant, were outstanding from the moment we scheduled them until the project was completed. These guys were the utmost professional and personable individuals, working as a team. Our chimney was is disarray, unable to be used, and needed extensive repairs. Daniel was very thorough in his explanation of the work to be done. The job was completed perfectly and we are now enjoying the use of our fireplace. Personally, I will only use Midtown for any future cleanings and maintenance. I HIGHLY recommend Daniel and Midtown Chimney for any of your chimney needs.

I cannot recommend Midtown Chimney Sweep enough! What started out as a routine inspection turned into Kurt discovering several serious hazards in my fireplace. We have multiple fires each year, and Kurt truly prevented a potential catastrophe. He provided detailed pictures of the damage and thoroughly explained the repair process. I’m so grateful for his expertise and professionalism—thank you, Midtown Chimney Sweep!
