Scarborough, ME

CHIMNEY SWEEP
SERVING THE SCARBOROUGH, ME AREA

Scarborough, Maine, is experiencing rapid growth, becoming one of the fastest growing towns in Southern Maine. Its vibrant community and abundant business prospects are impressive, yet it's the natural beauty that truly captivates. Despite its proximity to Portland—just seven miles away—Scarborough offers a serene escape, reminiscent of being far removed from urban hustle. Its expansive sandy shores, undulating dunes, and vast marshlands beckon outdoor lovers, with the Atlantic horizon offering endless vistas.

However, the scenic coastline also ushers in severe winter conditions. Scarborough's winters are characterized by bone-chilling cold and forceful winds that whip up the snow, persisting for almost half the year. Such extreme weather underscores the necessity of proper chimney cleaning for properties in Scarborough, ME and the surrounding areas. At Absolute Chimney Service, we are at the forefront, delivering high-quality chimney services to residential and commercial properties, ensuring you can continue heating your home without the threat of harmful pathogens making their way into your property.

Since 1979, Absolute Chimney Service has taken immense pride in providing the highest quality chimney services in Scarborough, ME and the surrounding communities. With access to state-of-the-art equipment and 45+ years of experience, our chimney sweeps can perform a variety of services to ensure your property and chimney is safe. Regular chimney sweeping is the first of many services we offer. It's important because it helps remove dangerous creosote buildup, which is a highly flammable substance that can accumulate inside the walls of your chimney after burning wood or other fuels. If left unchecked, this buildup can lead to chimney fires, posing a significant risk to your home and family.

In addition to preventing chimney fires, regular chimney sweeping also ensures proper ventilation. Over time, debris such as leaves, twigs, and animal nests can obstruct the chimney, impeding the flow of smoke and gases out of your home. This can lead to poor indoor air quality and the potential for carbon monoxide poisoning. During the initial inspection, our chimney sweep will inspect and clear any blockages, allowing for proper ventilation and reducing the risk of harmful gases entering your home.

While we specialize in chimney cleaning and sweeping, our chimney sweeps also have a keen eye in catching and addressing structural issues to your chimney. Cracks, leaks, or deteriorating mortar can compromise the integrity of the chimney, leading to water damage, mold growth, and even a collapse that may impact the integrity of your roof.

If you are unsure about the current state of your chimney and wish to schedule a thorough inspection, we welcome you to contact us today! We’d be happy to provide you with helpful maintenance tips as well so you can best maintain your chimney in between cleanings.
