Chimney Sweep Services Framingham MA
The cold winters in Framingham and all of southern Massachusetts usually see quite a bit of fireplace use. And that means buildups of flammable creosote in the chimney flue that needs to be removed on a regular basis.
Our crew uses specialized brushes, rods, whips, scrubbers and more to safely remove creosote and significantly reduce the chance of a chimney fire, which can damage your flue liner, chimney masonry and adjacent parts of your home.
We also remove draft-blocking debris such as tree leaves and twigs, small animal nests and deceased small animals. Any draft blockage can cause smoke and combustion gasses such as dangerous carbon monoxide to move into the air of your home. Keep your Framingham home safe with annual chimney cleaning.
Licensed Chimney Inspections
The best way to stay on top of chimney repairs is to have our inspectors evaluate your chimney system once a year.
The basic inspection we offer throughout the Framingham MA area includes a close examination of all visible areas of your chimney and fireplace. We also can perform a video chimney inspection that allows us (and you) to clearly see any damage problems down inside your chimney flue.
Other chimney inspections can be performed when:
- You’re selling your home
- You’re adding a new appliance to the chimney
- You’re changing fuels, such as from a wood fireplace to a gas insert
- Damage is known to exist in areas that are difficult to access

Historic Chimney Restoration
If you have a beautiful older home in Framingham, your chimney system may have some unique issues that we can help you with. Older chimneys often need masonry repairs including replacement of cracked bricks and decayed mortar joints (tuckpointing). Chimneys built more than 100 years ago commonly were constructed without a flue liner, which we can install if your chimney doesn’t have one.
We take special pride in cleaning, repairing and restoring historic chimneys for our customers and making their chimney and fireplace systems beautiful and safe to run all winter long. We can oversee any type of historic chimney restoration project, large or small, from inspection to finishing touches.
Leaky Chimney Repair
Rain, snow and cold weather all work together to create problems for chimneys. If your chimney is showing signs of leaking, let one of our chimney leak specialists determine why the leak exists, inspect for collateral water damage and make the right repairs.
If you ignore any kind of chimney leak – whether it be in the masonry or a component such as the chimney crown or flashing – widespread damage usually will result. We’re here to help you avoid this.
Above & Beyond Chimney Sweep of Framingham is a family-owned and family-operated chimney company that cares about your chimney, your home and your safety. For all your chimney needs, reach us year-round at (774) 244-3980.
