Chimney and Fireplace Services in Collegedale, TN

Trusted Chimney Repairs

Chimneys in Collegedale experience a constant freeze/thaw cycle and 24/7 exposure to the elements. These conditions wear chimneys out, leading to various types of damage that could compromise their structural integrity and safety.

Like chimney maintenance or inspections, repairs are best left to certified professionals. Our technicians are highly trained to ensure repairs are done correctly and up to code. The most common signs you need chimney repairs are loose bricks, broken masonry, white stains, cracked crown, damaged flashing, and flue liner cracks. 

Our experts will thoroughly inspect your chimney and recommend repairs if they detect damage. Our repair services include tuckpointing, flue liner repair, chimney crown repair or replacement, cap replacement, flashing replacement, and more.

Collegedale Flue Liner Repair

The chimney flue liner is the protective lining in the chimney flue designed to contain combustion byproducts, direct them outside, and protect the chimney walls from high temperatures. Liners are typically made from clay, ceramic, or metal. The most common types of damage a liner will sustain over its life are:

• Cracks and gaps
• Corrosion and rust
• Spalling
• Creosote buildup
• Blockages

Chimney Solutions is the most trusted local expert whether you need flue relining, patching, cleaning, or a total replacement. And, if you're switching fuel types, call us to find out if your current liner is sufficient or if you need to swap it out with another material.

Chimney Sweeping

The Chimney Safety Institute of America recommends that open masonry fireplaces be swept once a year. Burning wood creates creosote, a highly flammable and corrosive substance that accumulates in the chimney over time and is the main cause of chimney fires.

Unfortunately, chimney cleaning isn't a DIY project; you need a trained professional with the right tools to do the job right and ensure safety and efficiency. Sure, you can save a few bucks hiring a handyman, but failing to perform a thorough cleaning could put your home at risk of a fire, and you see it's not worth the risk.

During chimney cleaning, our professionals will remove the creosote buildup, soot, and blockages from the flue lining and clean out the firebox, damper, and smoke chamber.

Dryer Vent Cleaning in Collegedale

Blocked dryer vents are more dangerous than people realize. They're responsible for nearly 2,900 dryer fires annually and $35 million in damage. Moreover, clogged dryer vents can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning, higher energy bills, and reduce the dryer's lifespan.

Many dryer venting systems have complex bends, making them difficult for the average person to clean thoroughly. Our trusted professionals have the experience and tools to clean the vent properly to ensure your family's safety.
