Benton Chimney Co

Benton Chimney Co is dedicated to helping homeowners maintain clean, efficient, and properly functioning chimney systems through regular chimney sweeping and fireplace maintenance. A well-maintained chimney plays an important role in supporting proper ventilation, reducing soot accumulation, and addressing potential hazards associated with creosote buildup. Our focus is on dependable chimney care, careful workmanship, and promoting responsible fireplace maintenance to help homeowners enjoy a comfortable home environment.

Over time, chimneys can accumulate soot, ash, creosote, and other debris that may restrict airflow and affect fireplace performance. Excessive creosote buildup is a significant concern because it can increase the risk of chimney fires. Regular chimney sweeping and appropriate inspections help homeowners monitor their chimney systems, identify potential issues, and make informed decisions about necessary maintenance.

They showed us internal camera footage of broken flue tiles and fixed the damper without spreading a speck of soot onto our light living room carpet.

Our wood stove draft had failed for two seasons. Benton diagnosed the blockage immediately and installed a proper stainless steel cap that solved it completely.
