Damian U Chimney Inc. doesn’t do fluff—we do chimneys. Since 2010, we’ve cleaned, inspected, and repaired chimneys in Parlin and the surrounding Middlesex County neighborhoods with one goal: keep your home safe without wasting your time. No upsells, no scare tactics—just a thorough sweep, a clear report, and a job done right the first time. We show up on time, work efficiently, and leave your property cleaner than we found it. If your chimney’s been neglected or you’re unsure about its condition, we’ll tell you exactly what needs fixing and why—no guesswork.
Parlin’s other sweeps clean the flue but skip the damper, smoke shelf, and flue tiles. We inspect every square inch, document cracks with photos, and repair them on the spot if needed. No surprise callbacks—just a chimney that’s actually safe, not just ‘cleaned.’

Same-day or next-day service is standard for us. We book appointments based on urgency, and Parlin homeowners often call us after a windstorm knocks soot loose into their fireplaces. We’ll sweep your chimney, inspect for storm damage, and clear any debris blocking the flue—all before the next coastal low pressure system rolls in.
Yes, but the difference is minimal. Hardwoods like oak, maple, or hickory burn hotter and cleaner than softwoods, but any wood—even seasoned apple—creates creosote when burned inefficiently. The real factor is moisture content: wood must be dried for at least 6 months to reduce creosote buildup. We recommend using a moisture meter before stacking your Parlin fireplace for winter.
That musty odor is trapped moisture reacting with creosote and masonry. Parlin’s humid summers and frequent rain saturate chimneys, especially older brick ones. We seal leaks with waterproofing treatments, install chimney caps to block rain entry, and remove creosote buildup that absorbs moisture. A one-time treatment can eliminate the smell for good.
You can use it immediately. We vacuum all loose soot and debris during the cleaning, so your fireplace is safe to light the same day. However, if we found cracks in the flue or damaged masonry, we’ll recommend repairs before your next burn to prevent carbon monoxide leaks.
If you burn wood daily in Parlin’s cold winters, the National Fire Protection Association recommends sweeping every 50 fires or once per year—whichever comes first. Heavy use accelerates creosote buildup, especially with Parlin’s damp, coastal air. We’ll inspect your chimney’s condition and adjust the schedule based on your usage.
A decade of neglect means thick creosote layers, cracked flue tiles, and potential blockages. The worst-case scenario? A chimney fire or carbon monoxide poisoning. We’ve seen Parlin homes with flues 80% blocked by debris. Don’t risk it—call us for a Level 2 inspection before your first fire this season.
Absolutely. Parlin’s clay soil retains water, and homes built on it often develop chimney leaks from ground saturation. We repair cracked crowns, repoint mortar joints, and install custom cricket flashing to divert water away from your chimney. Our waterproofing treatments last 5+ years in coastal NJ conditions.
A Level 1 inspection is standard for routine cleanings—we check accessible areas for blockages or damage. A Level 2 is required after a chimney fire, property transfer, or if you’ve made structural changes. In Parlin, we recommend Level 2 inspections for homes built before 1990, as older chimneys often have hidden defects. We’ll tell you which one you need during your appointment.
