American Chimney Service was established by Robert Brancaccio to service the chimney needs for residential and commercial clients in Northern New Jersey and New York. He started out almost 2 decades ago as a summer employee, and within 2 years ended up running the company. Mr. Brancaccio introduced the concepts of professionalism and customer service to his former company, and later to his own. He believed that obtaining the proper certifications and licenses greatly enhanced his business and his ability to service his customers properly.
Until very recently, expert inspections and evaluations of fireplaces, stoves or other venting systems were left up to the discretion of chimney specialists. Now, there are standards and codes established by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) regarding home heating appliances (NFPA 211). A Level 1 inspection is the minimum required for systems that are status quo - that are not changing and are in continued use under the same conditions. In a Level 1 inspection, our technician will examine easily accessed portions of the chimney exterior, interior and accessible components of the chimney connection.
In selecting a chimney contractor, it is crucial to research potential providers before hiring them to perform annual inspections or related chimney services. The Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) recommends that homeowners hire CSIA-certified chimney sweeps, because proper care by the right contractor can help protect your home from unnecessary fires and carbon monoxide poisonings.
Water causes more damage to the chimneys on our homes then fire. The masonry work and other materials that your home is made of are protected by the roof and eave. Your chimney is not. Your chimney stands stoically above the roofline of your house, weathering constant exposure to the environment. A brick chimney is constructed of a multitude of masonry and non-masonry materials, including mortar and brick, terra cotta tile, steel and in some cases cast iron. These materials suffer deterioration with prolonged contact with the environment.
At American Chimney Service, we hold ourselves accountable for every job we take on. We always follow through, and take our responsibilities seriously, as we know that this is the key to success. We do this as a team, and our office and field staff are carefully coordinated to create an optimal experience for our clients through our services. We are open and honest, always making sure to inform clients of their options and deliver value. Integrity is critical, and we try and make recommendations that will save clients time, money or both.

He may be cute but if he gets into your home he will create a mess! Raccoons are just one of the many reasons for having a chimney professional install a chimney cap on top of your chimney. There are many shapes and sizes and, if needed, we can custom prepare a chimney cap for your unusually shaped chimney. Oh, chimney caps also keep out birds and other animals as well as raccoons. Moreover, chimney caps help keep rain out of your chimney. Less rain decreases odor causing moisture levels, especially on a chimney that serves a fireplace.
Fireplace, wood-burning stoves, gas or oil heating appliances all contribute to dirty chimneys. Burning wood produces a black, sticky combustible layer that requires regular cleaning. We sweep your chimney clean by brushing the inside to eliminate built-up soot. Depending on your usage, the damage can range from a light layer to heavy build-up of burnt solids. A yearly clean-up by American Chimney Service eliminates your concerns and gives you peace of mind. Licensed, bonded and insured, American Chimney Service's chimney professionals are experienced and arrive properly equipped for the job with instructions to bring any potential problems to the attention of the homeowner.
