The call out
Chimney Sweeps work in New York
New York chimney work is split between the dense boroughs and the suburbs, and the searches follow the housing stock. Brownstones and prewar buildings in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens carry older flues and fireplaces, and the co op and condo boards that manage them search for inspections and cleaning on a building wide basis. Staten Island, the Bronx and the outer edges of Queens hold more detached houses with wood burning fireplaces and oil heat, and those owners search for sweeping, liner work and chimney caps. The trade in this city runs on a mix of small owner operators and a few multi truck firms, with franchise names thin on the ground compared with other trades. Paid search around chimney and fireplace terms in New York is active through the heating season, which tells you the demand is there to be captured. The searches are specific: by borough, by building type, by whether the chimney serves a fireplace or a boiler.
