Chimney sweep and duct cleaning in Perth Amboy, NJ
Chimney work in Perth Amboy usually starts on the roof rather than at the hearth, because the flues here are old and narrow and the exposure is coastal — which is the combination least forgiving of water getting in. We check the cap and the flashing first, then scan what is inside, then sweep.

The short answer
Dryer vent work runs alongside it. Doing it in that order is not a preference; it is what stops a sweep being undone by the next storm.
What we find on these jobs
Corroded caps and failed flashing details, years before either would have gone inland. Behind them, narrow unlined masonry that has taken more water than it should have, which is where a cracked joint matters most. The smell people call in about in summer is usually the same story from the other end: creosote plus moisture, which means water is getting in at the crown or the cap, and which comes back every humid week until the water is stopped rather than until the flue is cleaned again.

There was a lot of shaking in the chimney at night because the cap had come loose. They took it out and replaced it with a safe locking model, fixed the broken tile below, cleaned up the mess, and checked the…
The formation of water stains around the fireplace was prevented by repairing the flashing. The sealing seems to be well-done and secure. At last, weatherproofing feels solid. Thorough focus on detail.
Questions from Perth Amboy
Which comes first, the cap or the sweep?
The cap, on this coast. There is very little point clearing a flue that rain is still falling into, and here the cap is the thing most likely to have failed.
My chimney smells worse in summer.
That is creosote plus moisture, and it usually means water is getting in at the crown or the cap. A sweep helps for a few weeks; stopping the water is what actually fixes it.
Is an unlined flue safe to use?
Not automatically unsafe, but it is the case where a cracked joint matters most, and on the waterfront those joints have had more water through them. That is a scan before a sweep.
Do you come this far south regularly?
Yes. Perth Amboy is named in the business's own Google service area and it is a normal run alongside Edison and New Brunswick.
