Family-run since 2007
Certified technicians, protected floors, contained soot, and appointments within the week — from a family operation, not a chain.
We run brushes through the full length of the flue and vacuum all the soot out so your fireplace drafts properly and operates safely.
Complete flue brushing, smoke chamber cleaning, firebox work, damper inspection, photo report.
Accumulated lint restricts airflow and creates a real fire risk, so we clean the entire vent line from your dryer to the outside wall.
End-to-end brushing, airflow verification, exterior vent flap inspection.
Full cleaning and safety review for wood and pellet stoves, covering everything from the stovepipe down to the door gasket.
Stovepipe cleaning, baffle inspection, gasket and door seal check.
A properly sized stainless cap blocks rain, wildlife, and debris from entering the flue and prevents downdraft problems.
On-site measuring, stainless cap, spark screen, fastened mounting.
A thorough, documented review of the flue, crown, liner, and firebox, with plain-language notes on anything that needs work.
Camera scan of the liner, written summary, photographs.
We fill deteriorated mortar joints, rebuild worn crowns, and seal the brickwork before moisture causes deeper damage.
Tuckpointing, crown rebuild, flashing inspection, waterproofing.
Choose the issue that matches. We will guide you to the right appointment.

Warning signs
Dear neighbor,
My grandfather began cleaning chimneys in Southington with a truck, a set of brushes, and a commitment to leave every hearth in better shape than he found it. That is still how we work.
When you call, you get our family on the line, not a dispatch center, and the technician who shows up at your door is someone we trained ourselves. Our name goes on every job.

Owner, Terra Cotta Chimney Sweeps
What the neighbors say
“Squirrels had been getting into our chimney for over a year. They had the cap installed within the same week I reached out.”
“Our dryer was back to finishing in a single cycle the same afternoon they cleaned the vent.”
“They put coverings down from the front door all the way to the hearth. You would never know someone had been there to sweep the chimney.”
Proudly serving Southington, CT and nearby communities, including:
If your town is not on the list, Call (860) 792-8724 and we will give you a straight answer.
A standard sweep runs about an hour. Adding a camera inspection tacks on another 30 to 45 minutes.
Absolutely — we do full cleaning and safety checks on wood and pellet stoves, covering the stovepipe, baffle, and door gasket.
Once a year is the standard for households that burn wood regularly. If you go through more than a cord a season or spot black flakes in the firebox, schedule a sweep sooner.
We put drop cloths down from the door to the hearth, wear shoe covers, seal off the fireplace opening, and keep a HEPA vacuum running the entire time.
We run a camera through the flue liner, examine the crown, cap, flashing, damper, and firebox, and hand you a written report with photographs.
