Our approach to chimney flues in Dover Manor
Before you approve flue work in Dover Manor, these points are worth knowing.
Smoke in the fireplace next door
If you smell smoke from one fireplace while another is burning, or see smoke coming from an unused flue, the flues may be leaking into each other. A cracked tile or a damaged partition between flues is a common reason.
This is worth taking seriously, because smoke and combustion gases are going where they were never meant to go. Stop using the fireplace that seems to be the source, and call us for an assessment. A smoke test often helps confirm where the leak is.
A fallen tile can block the flue
A large piece of broken tile can lodge in the flue or on the smoke shelf and partly block the passage. Smoke then spills into the room, or the fire struggles to draw.
If smoke suddenly starts coming back into the room from a fireplace that used to draw well, put the fire out safely and call us. We find what is blocking the flue, remove it and look at where it came from. Do not try to knock the piece loose with a pole from below. Loose tile can bring more material down with it, and the flue needs a look before any fire is lit again.
One family crew from inspection to repair
Our family-owned team handles the assessment, the estimate and the repair. The person who explains the flue damage to you is part of the crew that fixes it and answers the phone afterward.
If something about the finished work is not right, call us. Our 100% satisfaction guarantee means we come back and make it right, and our workmanship warranty covers the repair we perform. That continuity matters on flue work, where the details of what could and could not be seen shape every decision afterward. The crew that wrote your findings is the crew that reads them if you call again.
Working from the top of the chimney
Much flue repair is done from the roof, especially at the top sections. Access depends on roof pitch, height and how the chimney sits on the roof.
We assess access during the inspection and explain what equipment will be used. If solar panels, fragile roofing or plantings are near the work, let us know so we can plan around them. Tall chimneys may need ladder standoffs, roof anchors or staging. We tell you what equipment will be on the property, where it will stand and how the roof surface is protected while we work at the top.

What people in Dover Manor ask about chimney flues
Still deciding? These answers help, and the inspection in Dover Manor is free.
Do you clean the flue before repairing it?
Usually, yes. Deposits hide cracks and keep repair materials from bonding. Cleaning is listed as its own line in the estimate.
Where are the fragments in my fireplace coming from?
Flat, hard clay pieces usually come from the flue tiles. Mortar crumbs, rust flakes and creosote point elsewhere. Keep a piece and show it to us, and we will find the source.
