Matts Brothers Chimney was founded on a simple belief: homeowners in Medford and across South Jersey deserve chimney professionals they can actually trust. Too many families have been burned — figuratively — by contractors who overcharge, underdeliver, or invent problems to pad a bill. We built this company from the ground up to be different. Our founders grew up in this region, understand the specific climate challenges that New Jersey winters pose for masonry chimneys, and take genuine pride in protecting the homes and families of our neighbors. From our first cleaning to our hundredth liner installation, every job carries our name — and we treat it that way.
"Matts Brothers came out and found a serious crack in our flue liner that we had no idea about. They were honest, professional, and the price was fair. The repair was done quickly and the whole crew was incredibly respectful of our home. I can't recommend them enough to any Medford family with a fireplace."
"I called on a Thursday and they had someone out by Friday morning. The technician was thorough, explained every step of the cleaning, and didn't try to upsell me on a single thing I didn't need. My fireplace drafts better than it has in years. These guys are the real deal — honest and skilled."
"After buying our older home, we needed a Level 2 inspection before our closing. Matts Brothers had the camera equipment, gave us a detailed written report, and completed everything on a tight timeline. Their findings helped us negotiate a repair credit with the sellers. Absolutely invaluable service and a genuinely professional team."
"We had a raccoon in our chimney — not a fun morning. Matts Brothers handled the cap installation fast and professionally and also did a thorough cleaning while they were up there. The crew was polite, cleaned up completely, and the cap looks great. No more wildlife surprises. Worth every penny."
"I've used two other chimney companies in the past and neither was as thorough or communicative as Matts Brothers. They sent before-and-after photos of the flue, explained what creosote stage buildup we had, and told me honestly that my liner was still in good shape. Refreshing honesty. They've earned a customer for life."
"Dryer vent cleaning sounds simple but our run is over 20 feet with two bends. The previous company said they got it but our drying times didn't improve. Matts Brothers brought the right equipment, cleared out a shocking amount of lint, and now our dryer works like new. Should have called them first."

You should have your chimney swept at least once per year. The NFPA 211 standard recommends annual inspection and cleaning for all chimneys, fireplaces, and vents. If you burn wood frequently — more than two cords per season — you may need cleaning twice a year. Medford's cold winters make regular use common, so don't skip this.
A chimney inspection includes a thorough visual examination of all accessible interior and exterior components. A Level 1 covers accessible areas; a Level 2 adds a video camera scan of the full flue and is required for real estate transactions or after a chimney fire. We provide a written report with photos after every inspection.
Yes, creosote is genuinely dangerous. It is a highly flammable byproduct of wood combustion that accumulates on flue walls. Third-degree creosote — a tar-like glaze — can ignite at temperatures commonly reached during normal fireplace use. Chimney fires caused by creosote can reach over 2,000°F and cause catastrophic structural damage. Annual cleaning eliminates this risk.

There is no obligation to proceed. We believe trust starts before any money changes hands, and we will never pressure you into a service you're not ready for.
A standard chimney cleaning takes between 45 minutes and two hours, depending on the size of the system and the level of creosote buildup. A combined cleaning and Level 1 inspection typically falls within that range. We work efficiently and cleanly, and most Medford homeowners are surprised by how neat the process is from start to finish.
No, you should not use a fireplace with a cracked liner. A damaged liner allows heat, sparks, and toxic gases — including carbon monoxide — to escape into the surrounding masonry and potentially into your living space. Operating a fireplace with a compromised liner is a significant fire and health hazard. Contact us immediately for an assessment and relining options.
Late summer and early fall — August through October — are the ideal times to schedule chimney cleaning and inspection in Medford. Scheduling before the heating season begins ensures your fireplace is safe and ready when cold weather arrives. It also avoids the rush that comes in November and December when many homeowners call at the last minute.
