CSIA-Certified Chimney Sweep
Since 1953, Felgemacher has served the greater Rochester area with chimney cleaning to help keep chimneys safe and reduce the risk of fire and damage to homes. We are certified through the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA), the country’s leading certifying organization for professional, trained chimney sweeps.
Annual chimney cleaning services focus on the removal of creosote, a flammable substance that forms inside the flue when a fire is burned. When allowed to build up, creosote can be the cause of a devastating chimney fire. We also help our Pittsford customers by removing leaves, twigs, the nests of small animals and other obstruction-causing debris from their chimneys, thus ensuring smooth and safe drafting of smoke and carbon monoxide.

Chimney Inspections
Felgemacher performs all three levels of chimney inspection as recommended by the Chimney Safety Institute of America.
Level 1: Basic visual chimney inspection.
Level 2: Performed when the home is being sold, when damage or malfunction is suspected and when the fireplace/chimney system is being modified. Level 2 inspections include the use of advanced video technology to examine the interior of the flue.
Level 3: An in-depth inspection when the chimney structure is severely damaged; often includes dismantling parts of the chimney and/or adjacent home building materials.
Yearly chimney inspections at your Pittsford NY home are a great way to detect minor issues and get them repaired before significant damage makes the chimney unsafe to use.
Chimney Caps, Flue Covers & Chimney Chase Tops – Repair & Installation
Chimney caps and flue covers found on masonry chimneys and chase tops commonly used with pre-built chimneys are critical in protecting the top of your Pittsford chimney and its flue from water damage. Felgemacher technicians fix and install chimney caps, flue covers and chase tops.
If your chimney has only a basic flue cover – or if it has no protection at all – we recommend a full hip and ridge custom chimney cap, which will cover and protect the entire top of your chimney including the crown and the flue.
