Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.
Chimney Company in Greenville, NY
Hadley Chimney Sweep is a chimney company serving Greenville, NY, where old farmhouse chimneys meet heavy wood-burning seasons and weather that punishes masonry. Homes here run older, often pre-World War II, with chimneys that weren’t built for modern heating demands or Greenville’s freeze-thaw cycles. That combination means sweeps and inspections need to dig deeper, and repairs usually involve more than a quick patch. If you’re looking for a chimney cleaning in Greenville that starts with a written price and ends with photos of the work, call (914) 233-3156.
Why Greenville Homes Are Different
Greenville’s rural, heavily wooded setting shapes every chimney job we take here. Most of the housing stock predates World War II, and many homes are 19th-century farmhouses with masonry chimneys that have no modern liner. That matters because older chimneys absorb moisture differently, and the mortar joints between bricks break down faster when snow melts and refreezes through a long winter. We see a lot of spalling brick faces and hidden flue damage that a surface-level sweep would miss.
The tree canopy is another factor. Maple, oak, and hemlock drop leaves and branches into uncapped flues, and those same trees make chimneys attractive to squirrels, raccoons, and birds. Nesting material packed against a flue wall turns a routine sweep into a fire hazard removal job. After a nor’easter, we typically find fresh damage along the older farmhouses on Route 32: leaking flashing, displaced crowns, and cracked masonry where wind and ice worked the structure. Greenville jobs just take a more thorough inspection than what’s typical in a denser suburb.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Greenville Services
Most Greenville homeowners call us for one of three things: a sweep before burning season, a repair after the winter does its work, or a gas fireplace that won’t light when the temperature drops.
Chimney Sweep in Greenville
A chimney sweep in Greenville means more than brushing out creosote. We remove the flammable tar buildup that accumulates from burning cordwood, clear out leaves and animal nests from uncapped flues, and inspect every accessible surface with a camera so you see exactly what we saw. Given the age of chimneys in this area, we also check the mortar joints and crown condition as part of every sweep. Chimney Sweep in Greenville
Chimney Repair in Greenville
Chimney repair in Greenville often starts with what the winter exposed: spalled brick faces, crumbling crown mortar, or flashing that let water behind the siding. Because so many homes here have original masonry chimneys without modern liners, we frequently recommend a HeatShield or Gelco resurfacing when a camera inspection shows gaps in the flue. Every repair recommendation comes with photos you can view on your own device, and every repair is covered by our 365-day written guarantee. Chimney Repair in Greenville
Gas Fireplace Repair in Greenville
Greenville’s older homes have been retrofitted with gas inserts and log sets over the years, and those units need occasional service just like a furnace. We diagnose pilot assemblies, thermopiles, and clogged burner ports on all major brands, using parts from Olympia Chimney and Famco when replacements are needed. If a gas fireplace won’t stay lit or produces a weak flame, we’ll show you the failed part before we replace it. Gas Fireplace Repair in Greenville

What pushes a Greenville quote higher than average? Roof pitch on steep older farmhouses adds safety gear requirements, and chimneys that haven’t been inspected in years sometimes reveal liner work once a camera goes in. What won’t push it higher is surprise pricing: every job gets a written price before any work starts.
