Contact Apex Chimney Cleaning Greater New York — Free Chimney Cleaning Estimate in Greater New York
Call us at (866) 884-9512 for a free chimney cleaning estimate anywhere in Greater New York. When you reach our team, you’ll get a real person on the line — no automated menus, no hard sell. We’ll ask a few quick questions about your chimney or fireplace, check our schedule for same-day availability in your neighborhood, and book a time that actually works for you. Most Greater New York homeowners who call before noon get service the same day.
What Happens When You Call
Step 1: We answer your call. Our phones are staffed during business hours by people who know chimneys, not a call center reading scripts. We’ll listen to what you’re experiencing — smoke backup, draft issues, a last cleaning you can’t remember — and we’ll tell you honestly whether you need a sweep, an inspection, or something more involved.
Step 2: We schedule your assessment. We’ll find the next available appointment that fits your schedule, including evenings and Saturdays throughout Greater New York. We’ll give you a two-hour arrival window and call 30 minutes before we head your way, so you’re not stuck waiting around all afternoon.
Step 3: We provide a written estimate. Our technician arrives in a marked Apex vehicle, inspects your chimney and fireplace with a camera where needed, and hands you a clear, itemized estimate before any work begins. If the scope changes mid-job — say we find cracked flue tiles we couldn’t see from below — we’ll stop and explain before proceeding.
Step 4: We complete the work and clean up. Most chimney cleanings in Greater New York take 45 minutes to 90 minutes. We lay down protective coverings, run our HEPA vacuums, and leave your home cleaner than we found it. You’ll get a written service report and our workmanship guarantee before we pack up.
Why Greater New York Homeowners Call Us First
- Fast response across Greater New York. Our crews are positioned throughout the metro area, which means we can usually reach homes in Hempstead, Flatbush, or Hillside within 90 minutes of a call. We’ve kept this structure for 17 years because New Yorkers don’t have patience for “we’ll be there Tuesday.”
- Licensed, insured, and background-checked. Every Apex technician carries full liability and workers’ compensation coverage, and we run background checks before anyone wears our uniform. You’re letting us into your home — we don’t take that lightly.
- Upfront pricing with zero hidden fees. Your written estimate shows exactly what you’re paying for: the sweep, the inspection level, any repairs, and materials. We’ve heard too many stories from Greater New York homeowners who got a low phone quote that doubled once the truck arrived. That doesn’t happen here.
- Our workmanship guarantee backs every job. If you’re not satisfied with the cleaning or inspection, we’ll return and make it right at no charge. Robert Garcia stands behind this personally — it’s how we’ve earned 1,096 verified reviews averaging 4.7 stars over 17 years in this market.

Frequently Asked Questions — Booking & Estimates
Yes — our standard chimney inspection and written estimate are completely free with no obligation to book. We believe you should know what you’re dealing with before spending a dollar. If you decide to wait on the work, that’s your call; we’ll never pressure you. Call (866) 884-9512 to schedule yours.
Most days, we offer same-day appointments for calls received before noon, and next-morning slots for afternoon callers. During peak burning season — October through February in Greater New York — we recommend calling a day or two ahead, though we always hold emergency slots for smoke or carbon monoxide concerns. Call (866) 884-9512 to check today’s availability.
No — our rates stay the same whether we come Tuesday morning or Saturday evening. We know Greater New York schedules don’t always fit 9-to-5 windows, so we offer appointments until 7 PM weekdays and full Saturday hours. The estimate is still free, and the pricing is still upfront. Call (866) 884-9512 to find a slot that works.
Just your address, a brief description of the issue or when you last had service, and any access notes (apartment number, gate code, parking situation). If you know your chimney type — masonry, prefab metal, or insert — that’s helpful but not required. We’ll handle the technical assessment when we arrive. Call (866) 884-9512 whenever you’re ready.
We accept cash, check, and all major credit cards, and we can process payment on-site once the work is complete and you’ve approved the results. For larger repair jobs, we also offer payment plans — ask when you call (866) 884-9512 and we’ll explain the options.
