Chimney Service in Oakland
Oakland's housing stock spans late-Victorian bungalows in Rockridge and Temescal to mid-century flats in the flatlands. The city's hillside neighborhoods — Montclair, Redwood Heights, Joaquin Miller — contain a high concentration of pre-1950 wood-frame homes with original brick chimneys and clay flue liners. Oakland sits in the BAAQMD district, subject to Spare the Air wood-burning restrictions. The 1991 Oakland Hills firestorm highlighted the danger of uncapped chimneys in fire-prone hillside neighborhoods.
What Oakland Homeowners Need to Know
Oakland Hills homes are in the highest wildfire risk zone in Alameda County. The Oakland Fire Department specifically recommends an annual chimney inspection and a properly installed spark arrestor cap for all hillside properties. Several 1991 fire origin investigations pointed to chimney spark emission as a contributing factor.

Michael T.
Los Angeles · November 2024
“They showed up on time, laid drop cloths everywhere, and the chimney was done in 90 minutes. The technician walked me through the inspection photos and explained what he found. Absolutely zero mess. Booked them again for next year already.”
Sandra R.
Pasadena · October 2024
“Used them for a Level 2 inspection before closing on our 1940s Craftsman. They produced a full written report with photos that our lender accepted same day. Found a cracked flue tile that the previous home inspector completely missed. Worth every dollar.”
James K.
San Diego · December 2024
“Best price I found after calling four companies, and the quality was better too. The technician was a true professional — CSIA certified, explained everything, no upsell pressure. The fireplace drafts perfectly now. Highly recommend.”
Patricia L.
Sacramento · January 2025
“Scheduled online Monday, they were here Wednesday morning. Cleaned the chimney and replaced our deteriorated chimney cap in the same visit. The chimney was caked with stage 2 creosote — we had no idea. The technician was patient answering all my questions.”
David M.
Oakland · February 2025
“Had an issue with smoke backing into the house every time we lit a fire. They diagnosed a damaged damper plate and replaced it the same day. Problem solved completely. The technician explained that our previous sweep had missed this — now I know who to call going forward.”
Jennifer W.
Irvine · March 2025
“Great service overall. They cleaned the dryer vent and chimney in one visit. The vent had a significant lint build-up — clothes are drying in one cycle again. Would give 5 stars but scheduling took a couple of days due to their busy season.”
