Call a professional to maintain your chimney.
It’s more important than you realize.
It’s a fact that your chimney will wear over time; but the true condition and safety of your chimney is NOT what you see on the outside, but the condition on the inside. Whether you heat your home with oil, gas, wood or coal, over time each of the fuels creates combinations of condensation, acidic buildup or creosote, all of which will deteriorate the clay flue tiles and mortar inside your chimney. Left unattended, the consequences of this deterioration can result in deadly carbon monoxide gases escaping into the home or chimney fires.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends that chimneys be inspected annually and swept regularly.
First Response Chimney is here to protect your chimney and your home.

The FireGuard System
FireGuard’s patented vibration application system will give you unparalleled results. FireGuard will consistently fill gaps and cracks and leave the flue with a smooth finish. Other repair systems often fall short and can leave you with mixed results and a rough, uneven finish.
How does FireGuard work?
The FireGuard system is the only certified, ceramic resurfacing and mortar joint repair system employing a vibration unit, which promotes maximum penetration of tight mortar joints and fractures, and a consistent coat distribution for resurfacing. Without pinpoint vibration units, the ceramics do not penetrate tight openings nor form a solid, consistent coating over surfaces.
Why you should consider the FireGuard Alternative:
- SPECIFICATIONS – FireGuard’s temperature rating, 3,205° F, is the highest rating in the industry. The FireGuard system is the only resurfacing system that employs pinpoint vibration, maximizing the resurfacing, penetration and bonding properties of the ceramic coating.
- SAFETY – The FireGuard system exceeds all l.R.C. and N.F.P.A. 211 requirements for residential applications.
- PERFORMANCE – The FireGuard process does not appreciably decrease the area of the original flue; consequently, the performance of the fireplace or appliance will not change.
- CONVENIENCE – The FireGuard process is usually completed in a day. Demolition of the clay tiles, often required with steel liner installs, is not necessary with FireGuard. This eliminates much of the potential for a mess and damage in your home.
