American Chimney & Masonry is one of the most widely respected Chimney Sweeps in Portland, Oregon. Just about every organization with any connection to homes or home heating - from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) to the Hearth, Patio and Barbecue Association (HPBA) - recommends having your chimney regularly cleaned and swept by professional, CSIA-certified chimney sweep technicians.
If your chimney doesn't have a cap or guard, you are essentially inviting a number of things into your chimney and home. From moisture and gusts of wind to animals, birds and debris, chimney caps and guards work to keep your chimney efficient, protected and resident-free. The chimney cap covers the top of the chimney, working to keep rain and other moisture from entering the system.
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) - the organization that developed the standard by which professional chimney technicians conduct inspections - recommends that chimney systems, including fireplaces and vents, be inspected each and every year. That's a general rule of thumb - and a good way to ensure that you're staying on top of how well (or how poorly) your chimney system is performing.

Chimney.com did an excellent job installing our new gas fireplace. Brandon and Marlon communicated clearly with us regarding our specific fireplace needs, project updates, delivery time estimates, etc. Russ did a meticulous job with installation and ensured that he completed the job and that everything was working properly before leaving our house. Tiffany was super helpful during the installation process and with additional follow-up later on. I recommend chimney.com to anyone who has fire place projects.

This was my third experience with Chimney.com. All have been good, but the quality of service provided by Fabio today was above and beyond expectations. He was friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. He explained each procedure and provided options and pricing clearly. Chimney.com is fortunate to have such a great employee with outstanding customer service skills.

I highly recommend Chimney.com and am extremely happy with the work they did replacing my fireplace. Branden, Jimmy, Nelson and Daniel all did amazing work and were fantastic to work with, as well as office staff. Everything was done on time, and when they were done, my fireplace looked beautiful. This was a big project, and I really appreciate having such a positive experience.

Nelson and his crew did an amazing job of repairing our chimney and fireplace. It had been mostly destroyed in a chimney fire and needed a ton of work. They came, did clean and professional work, informed me of all that they were doing along the way, respected the home and the property and were pleasant and good people.
I enjoyed having them for the day and their work is top rate.

The entire team really provide excellent customer service. Brandon who provided the quote is knowledgeable and really educated me on the process. I really appreciated the customer service provided by Marlon and Yesenia. However the reason I am writing this review is the craftsmanship of Nelson and his team. The level of detail and work ethic brought my three 135 year old Chimneys back to life. I highly recommend Chimney.com
