Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed
Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

AfterChimney Cleaning Specials in Paterson, NJ
Call (973) 604-2986 and a live person will pick up, day or night. We’re Hearthstone Chimney Co., and we’ve been sweeping, inspecting, and repairing chimneys across Paterson and northern New Jersey for over 42 years. Our specials aren’t bait-and-switch gimmicks. They’re straightforward price breaks on work we already do every day, built around the seasonal rhythms of Paterson’s heating season. When the first cold snap hits the Passaic Valley, chimneys that sat idle since March get pressed back into service. That’s when problems show up. These offers are designed to catch them early, before you’re lighting a fire in a flue you can’t see into.
Current Offers
$50 Off Any Repair Over $250
If our Level-2 camera inspection turns up cracked flue tiles, deteriorating mortar joints, or a chimney crown that’s spalling, this discount applies to the fix. It covers masonry repair, crown rebuilding, liner work, cap installation, and any combination of services that crosses the $250 threshold. Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (973) 604-2986.
Free Second Opinion on Any Written Estimate
Another company handed you a quote for liner replacement or a full rebuild and you’re not sure it’s necessary? Bring us their written estimate and we’ll do our own camera inspection, show you the photos, and give you a plain-English verdict. No charge for the second look, and no obligation to hire us after. Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (973) 604-2986.
$89 Seasonal Tune-Up
This is our pre-season sweep and safety check for Paterson homeowners who use their fireplace or heating appliance regularly. We clean the flue, inspect the firebox, check the damper operation, and run a visual assessment of accessible components. If the camera inspection reveals something that needs deeper attention, we’ll show you exactly what we found and explain your options before any additional work is priced. Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (973) 604-2986.
Permanent 5% Senior and Veteran Discount
This isn’t a seasonal promotion. It’s a standing courtesy for Paterson residents who are 65 or older, or who have served in the armed forces. It applies to every service we offer, from routine sweeps to full chimney rebuilds, and it stacks with no other offer. We ask because we mean it. Your home first, standing behind it. Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (973) 604-2986.
How to Redeem
Step one: Call (973) 604-2986. A live person answers, 24 hours a day, every day. Mention which offer you’re calling about.
Step two: Book your visit. We’ll give you a firm arrival window and a no-hassle upfront price. The number on the estimate is the number on the invoice.
Step three: Present the offer at time of service. Our technician will apply it before you pay. Most jobs finish in a single visit.
What These Offers Actually Cover in Paterson
Paterson’s housing stock is old and varied. You’ve got Victorian-era masonry in the Eastside, mid-century ranchers in South Paterson, and everything in between. The climate doesn’t help. Freeze-thaw cycles through a typical northern New Jersey winter open cracks in crowns and chimney shoulders that stay hidden until water starts staining your ceiling or your flue starts drawing poorly. In the Hillcrest section, we regularly see clay flue liners installed in the 1960s that have reached the end of their service life. In the Downtown historic district, we’ve found unlined brick chimneys still venting modern gas appliances they were never built for.
Our $89 Seasonal Tune-Up catches the routine buildup that happens in all of them. The $50 repair discount addresses what we find when the tune-up reveals something worse. The free second opinion exists because we’ve seen too many Paterson homeowners talked into $4,000 liner jobs on chimneys that only needed a properly sized cap and some crown sealant. And the senior and veteran discount recognizes that fixed-income households in neighborhoods like Wrigley Park and People’s Park shouldn’t have to choose between heating safety and the grocery bill.
Why We Don’t Do Flash Sales or “Act Now” Pressure
We’ve been in business since 1984. Russell Haines built this company on the K.E.Y.S. code: Krafted right, Every time, Your home first, Standing behind it. A business that plans to be sweeping chimneys in Paterson thirty years from now doesn’t burn trust for a quick booking. Our offers run through December 31, 2026 because that’s the full heating season plus the spring inspection window when smart homeowners schedule ahead. No countdown timers. No “first ten callers.” Just a square deal, in writing, with no arguing if it’s not right.
The 90-Day Done Right Promise backs every job we book through these specials. If something we repaired or installed fails within ninety days, we come back. No paperwork battle. No “that’s not covered.” We fix it because we said we would, and because we’re still going to be here when you need us next year.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. The 5% senior and veteran discount applies on its own and does not stack with other offers. If your repair qualifies for both, we’ll apply whichever saves you more.
The tune-up includes a visual inspection of accessible components and a standard sweep. If we spot something that needs camera verification, we’ll explain why and quote the additional inspection separately before proceeding. You’ll see the photos and get a plain-English verdict, documented like an engineer, explained like a craftsman.
We don’t promise same-day dispatch. What we do promise is a live person on the phone who will tell you honestly when our next available slot is. During peak season in Paterson, that might be a few days out. For urgent safety concerns, we’ll triage and advise you on safe operation until we arrive.
No. The number on the estimate is the number on the invoice. If we uncover something unexpected during the work, we stop, show you, and get approval before continuing. No surprises on the bill.
That’s exactly what the Free Second Opinion is for. Bring us their written estimate. We’ll run our own camera inspection, show you the photos, and tell you whether their diagnosis matches what we see. Sometimes it does. Sometimes it doesn’t. Either way, you’ll know.
