Chimney Cleaning Under Annandale’s Old Trees
Annandale sits inside the Beltway with some of the area’s most mature neighborhoods — 1950s ramblers and colonials off Little River Turnpike and Columbia Pike shaded by sixty-year-old oaks. Those trees mean two things for chimneys: plenty of seasoned wood gets burned, and leaf litter plus nesting animals find uncapped flues fast. Our sweeps here clear creosote and, very often, the remains of something that moved in over summer.
Every cleaning includes a cap and crown check, because an uncapped Annandale flue rarely stays empty for long.
Do you install caps? Yes — stainless caps with animal screens, usually same visit.
