Restoration-grade chimney work for older Essex County homes
Short Hills Chimney works on the kind of houses this area is full of: large, old, and built with materials that need to be understood rather than simply patched. Tudor and Colonial Revival stacks, multi-flue chimneys serving three generations of appliance, slate and tile roofs that punish careless access, and brick soft enough that the wrong mortar will destroy it.
We serve Short Hills, Millburn, Summit, Springfield, Livingston, New Providence, Berkeley Heights and the surrounding towns. Every flue in a stack gets inspected on its own, every job gets photographed, and every recommendation is written down with a priority against it — so you can plan work over a couple of seasons instead of being told everything is an emergency.
We are licensed and insured in New Jersey, CSIA-trained, and we work to NFPA 211. The certificate is available before we arrive if you would like it on file.
What “done properly” means here
NFPA 211
The national standard for chimneys, fireplaces, vents and solid-fuel appliances. It governs inspection levels, clearances and liner requirements — and it is what our reports are written against.
CSIA-trained techs
Chimney Safety Institute of America training means a tech who can tell you why a flue is drafting badly, not just that it needs sweeping.
Documented findings
Camera footage and photos on every visit, with a written report. It is the difference between a recommendation and an opinion.
