(757) 590-6579Contact Hearthstone Chimney Co. - Free Chimney Cleaning Estimate in Chesapeake
Call us at (757) 590-6579 for a free chimney cleaning estimate in Chesapeake. When you reach our local office, a live coordinator will pick up, ask a few questions about your fireplace or stove setup, and find you the next available appointment. There’s no hard sell, no pressure to book on the spot, and no charge just to have us take a look. We’ll give you a straight answer about what your chimney needs, what it doesn’t, and what it would cost to put right.
What Happens When You Call
Step 1: We answer and listen. Our coordinator will ask which neighborhood you’re in, what type of appliance you have (wood-burning fireplace, gas insert, pellet stove, etc.), and whether you’ve noticed any specific issues like smoke backup, odd smells, or creosote buildup. This takes about three minutes and helps us send the right technician with the right equipment.
Step 2: We schedule your assessment. We’ll offer available slots within our regular hours, Monday through Friday 7:00 AM to 7:30 PM, or Saturday and Sunday 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM. You’ll get a confirmation call the day before. We serve all of Chesapeake, from Great Bridge to Deep Creek, and we’ll be there when we say.
Step 3: We inspect and estimate, in writing. Our sweep arrives on time, lays down protective coverings, and performs a level-2 inspection with a camera run up the flue. You’ll see the photos on a tablet right there in your living room. If work is needed, you’ll get a written estimate with line-item pricing before any tools come out of the truck. No surprises on the bill.
Step 4: You decide, and we do the work. If you choose to move forward, we can usually complete standard chimney cleaning the same visit. Larger jobs like liner replacement with DuraFlex or HeatShield resurfacing are scheduled at your convenience. Every job carries our written guarantee: The Keystone Standard, 90 days, no arguing.
Why Chesapeake Homeowners Call Us First
- We’re local to Chesapeake and nearby. Our technicians live in the same ZIP codes they serve. We know the clay-heavy soils of South Norfolk shift foundations and crack chimney crowns, and we’ve seen how the humid summers off the Elizabeth River accelerate mortar deterioration in neighborhoods like Greenbrier and Hickory.
- Every pro is properly credentialed. Every technician working under our name is required to hold the license and insurance their state requires. We don’t send anyone into your home we wouldn’t send into our mother’s.
- Transparent pricing, always in writing. Your estimate spells out exactly what we’re doing and why. If we find something unexpected during the job, we stop and talk it through before adding a dollar. A square deal means no surprises.
- We stand behind it. The Keystone Standard is our promise in writing: if anything we do isn’t right, we come back and fix it. No paperwork to file, no phone tag, no arguing. That’s how we’ve operated since this branch opened, and it’s how we plan to be here thirty years from now.
Our Service Area Around Chesapeake
We book chimney cleaning and inspections throughout Chesapeake proper, and we regularly serve Suffolk, Carrollton, Smithfield, Newport News, Poquoson, Franklin, and Gloucester Point.

Frequently Asked Questions - Booking & Estimates
Yes, the written estimate is completely free, with no obligation to book. We believe you should know what you’re facing before you spend a dime. Call (757) 590-6579 to schedule yours.
Most Chesapeake homeowners get an appointment within two to five business days, sometimes sooner depending on the season. Fall fills up fastest as folks prepare for burning season, so calling in late summer is smart. Call (757) 590-6579 and we’ll find you the next open slot.
No, we don’t add surcharges for Saturday or Sunday appointments within our posted hours, and our weekday window runs until 7:30 PM for a reason. We know you’re working too. The price on your estimate is the price you pay.
Know your address, the type of fireplace or appliance you have, and roughly when it was last serviced. If you’ve noticed a problem, describe what you see or smell. That’s it. We’ll handle the technical questions when we’re standing in front of your chimney with a camera.
We accept cash, check, and all major credit cards. Payment is due when the work is complete and you’ve had a chance to review everything with your technician. No deposits required for standard chimney cleaning.
