Chimney Genie has been serving Long Island with expert chimney repair, cleaning and relining services for over 20 years.

Chimney Genie believes that a knowledgeable consumer is our best client. The information below is a summary of the parts and function of the typical chimney. All chimneys are designed to exhaust waste gases or smoke and they normally have all the the same basic parts. The section on drafts (below) explains how the chimney works based on the “stack effect”. Many times this basic information will help you understand why your chimney may have an issue. The chimneys we service in Nassau, Suffolk, and all of Long Island have very similar and consistent types of problems and usage. This is simply because they all experience the same basic usage and weather conditions on Long Island.
