We’re Your Certified Chimney & Fireplace Experts in Idylwood, VA
Chimney Sweep: Chimney Cleaning, Chimney Inspection, Chimney Maintenance, & Chimney Repair Services
Idylwood sits in the quiet pocket between Falls Church and Tysons, where midcentury ramblers share streets with the new construction that replaced their neighbors. That teardown-and-rebuild mix defines the chimney work here: original 1950s masonry stacks on one lot, and on the next, a renovated home where nobody is quite sure what the remodel did to the flue. We sort out both — and we document what we find.
CCP (Certified Chimney Professional) and CCR (Certified Chimney Reliner) certified, working to the NFPA 211 standard. Renovation is the story of Idylwood, and renovation is where chimney problems hide — additions that enclose a once-exterior chimney, new rooflines that change draft, remodels that drywalled over the cleanout. A standards-based inspection catches what the contractor did not mention.

Chimney Inspections Fireplace Inspections
We perform NFPA 211 Level 1, 2, and 3 inspections, and Idylwood’s remodeled homes are exactly where the deeper levels earn their keep — verifying that an altered chimney still has its clearances, its liner integrity, and a termination that works with the new roof.
Chimney Cleaning & Fireplace Cleaning
Complete sweeping with removal of all creosote grades, including glaze. Original Idylwood flues have sixty-plus years of service behind them; we clean to the tile and camera-check while we are in the flue, so cleaning day doubles as an early-warning system.
Chimney Repair & Fireplace Repair
Crowns, caps, tuckpointing, and firebox repair on midcentury masonry — plus corrective work where a renovation left a chimney worse than it found it. Sixty-year-old brick and new construction loads make an unforgiving combination.
Chimney Re-lining
We install FireGuard ceramic and stainless steel liners. When an Idylwood remodel converts a fireplace or adds an appliance, the flue must be relined to match — an old clay liner sized for an open fireplace is wrong for almost everything else.
Dryer Vent Cleaning
Whether the vent run is original 1950s or part of last year’s renovation, we clean it end to end and confirm the termination is clear. Remodels sometimes bury dryer runs in soffits and chases where lint quietly accumulates.
