Multi-Level Chimney Safety Inspections

Failure to prevent the accumulation of creosote in your chimney can lead to the risk of fires. This is why the National Fire Protection Association recommends regular maintenance for chimneys, fireplaces, and vents that are frequently used. This includes:
  • An annual inspection to ensure clear and unobstructed ventilation paths, free from harmful deposits and blockages.
  • Adherence to clearance requirements.
  • Verification of the structural integrity of the chimney.
The team at Priddy’s Chimney comprises experienced and certified professionals who will conduct a comprehensive inspection of your fireplace or appliance flue. If blockages or significant soot deposits are detected within your chimney flue, our skilled sweeps are equipped with the necessary tools and training to clear the flue, ensuring a safe and unobstructed ventilation path for your appliance or fireplace.

Customer Reviews of our Chimney Sweep Services

TRI ME

I recently had to get my chimney inspected. I contacted Priddy Chimney Solutions and made an appointment. I was pleasantly surprised with how quickly they could fit me in. The technician, Ariel Whitman, arrived on time. He was very pleasant and well mannered. Ariel and his assistant made sure their shoes were covered prior to entering my home and they ensured that my carpet was covered prior to beginning their work. They worked very efficiently cleaning and examining my chimney both in my home and up on the roof. Once they completed their work, Ariel came back to the door and showed me pictures of the inside of my chimney and made recommendations about how I should proceed. Ariel took the time to answer all of my questions and made a note to put me on an annual inspection schedule. My overall experience with Ariel and Priddy Chimney Solutions was fantastic and I am looking forward to using my fireplace this season with the knowledge and peace of mind that my family and I will be safe doing so. I highly recommend this company.

I recently used Priddy Chimney Sweeps to reline two chimneys in my house. The techs who came were extremely nice, respectful of my house, earnest in their work ethic, politely answered all my questions and generally just nice people. They came on time, worked hard all day and cleaned up afterwards like they were never here. I am actually calling them back one month later to request more work with a smile on my face.

Silver Spring Masonry Contractor Services

The Best Brick and Masonry Contractor in Silver Spring

Masonry is a craft that encompasses both a skilled trade and an art form. It goes beyond the simple act of binding blocks together with mortar; rather, it is a fusion of intelligent design, color coordination, materials science, and the proficiency to restore existing bonded structures. At Priddy Chimney, we hold a steadfast belief that masonry stands out as a unique trade, seamlessly blending physics with sculpture, strength with design.

We Take Pride in Our Chimney Repair & Rebuild Services

Numerous chimneys feature a layering of terra cotta clay tiles, stacked from the foundation to the chimney’s pinnacle. Over time, the clay tiles undergo deterioration, influenced by the acidic nature of vented gases, intense heat, moisture absorption from rain and snow, and the shifting and settling of the house and foundation. As these tiles weaken, they may spall, crack, and split, reaching a point where they can no longer effectively contain the gases and flammable byproducts of combustion that they are designed to vent. By opting for a new chimney liner installation from Priddy Chimney Solutions, you can rejuvenate the safety and efficiency of your chimney.

Quality Tuckpointing & Fireplace Mortar Repair

Tuckpointing is a technique that employs two distinct mortar colors to fill the joints in brickwork.

One of the tuckpointing colors is formulated to closely match the bricks themselves, ensuring seamless integration and a harmonious visual effect.

The second color serves as a deliberate contrast, specifically chosen for the visible mortar joints.

By strategically placing the second color between the brick-colored mortars, the result is an optical illusion that makes the joints appear exceptionally thin, creating a refined aesthetic rather than a thicker, more pronounced look.

Fireplace Design & Build

A fireplace has the power to establish the aesthetic and style of an entire room, serving as a captivating focal point. The use of rough brick or stone can evoke a rustic ambiance, while the sleekness of smooth tile can introduce a modern touch. No matter your individual style preferences, Priddy is dedicated to collaborating with you to create a customized solution that seamlessly complements your living space.
