Hudson Valley Chimney has served Modena, NY, and all of Ulster County, NY, since 1976, providing expert chimney services to improve performance and enhance safety in your chimney system.
Our CSIA- and NCSG-certified technicians understand how chimneys work, what can go wrong with them, and how to fix problems in compliance with state and local code regulations.
Chimney Sweeping
Annual chimney cleaning helps reduce the chance of a chimney fire and smoke backups while keeping your chimney strong and healthy.
We use specialized tools to remove flammable creosote buildups, which form every time wood burns in your fireplace. Creosote can be solid, sticky, flaky, or puffy, and it’s the #1 cause of reported chimney fires in Modena, NY, each year.
Our technicians also remove leaves, twigs, falling fruit, and the nests of small animals, all of which can narrow the flue passage. When this happens, smoke and deadly carbon monoxide can filter into your home and create a health risk for people and pets.
Every chimney sweeping job includes a Level 1 chimney inspection (see below).

Chimney Inspections
Hudson Valley Chimney provides a full range of professional chimney inspections.
A Level 1 inspection is a safety and performance inspection that covers all readily accessible areas of your chimney system. We check for signs of damage and ensure the connection between your chimney and the fireplace, furnace, insert, heating stove, or other appliance is secure and meets state and local code requirements.
Our inspectors are skilled at spotting potential problems you may not yet have noticed. By catching issues early, you’ll prevent the dangers and high cost that come with a neglected chimney.
Along with Level 1 inspections, we offer specialized chimney inspections when:
- Something has happened (chimney fire, weather event, etc.) that may have caused damage somewhere in the system
- You’re selling your home or buying a new home
- You’re adding a new appliance to vent through the chimney, installing a new chimney liner, or otherwise modifying the system
- Major damage is known to exist, and a game plan for restoration is needed
