Stainless steel and cast-in-place liner systems installed with exacting precision to protect your home and meet code.
Precision masonry repairs and professional-grade sealants that shield your chimney from New Jersey's demanding freeze-thaw cycles.
Expert masonry rebuilding of damaged fireboxes using refractory materials rated for extreme heat — built to outlast the original.

We hold ourselves to the highest standards so you can hire with total confidence.
We treat your home with the same respect we'd want shown in our own. Drop cloths, HEPA vacuums, boot covers, and a post-job wipe-down are standard on every visit — not an upgrade. Medford clients regularly tell us they couldn't tell we'd been there, except the chimney was immaculate.
Every quote we provide is written, itemized, and explained before any work begins. We do not use high-pressure tactics or manufacture urgent repairs. If something doesn't need fixing today, we'll tell you honestly and help you plan appropriately. Our pricing reflects real craftsmanship, and we stand behind every number we put on paper.
We are fully licensed and insured in New Jersey, and we back our labor with a written workmanship warranty. If something we installed or repaired fails due to our workmanship, we return and make it right — no argument, no invoice. That level of accountability is what separates a true craftsman from a low-bid contractor.
Medford's housing stock spans colonial-era stone chimneys to mid-century brick systems to modern prefab fireplaces — and each demands different techniques and materials. Years of working specifically in this region means we understand local soil movement, frost-depth effects on masonry, and the exact wildlife species most likely to nest in your flue.
Matts Brothers Chimney was founded on a simple conviction: homeowners in Medford and across South Jersey deserve chimney professionals who hold themselves to a craftsman's standard — not a volume contractor's. We are a family-run operation, and that means the people whose names are on the truck are directly accountable for the quality of every job. We invested in professional training, proper equipment, and a service process built around cleanliness and transparency from day one. That foundation has built us a reputation that spreads primarily through neighbor-to-neighbor referrals across Medford, Marlton, Cherry Hill, and beyond.
"I've had several chimney companies over the years and Matts Brothers is genuinely in a different league. They laid drop cloths everywhere, wore boot covers, and vacuumed constantly as they worked. My cream-colored carpet near the fireplace was untouched. The written report they left me was detailed and completely understandable. Absolutely the only company I'll call going forward."
"We bought an older home in Medford Lakes and needed a full inspection before using the fireplace. The camera inspection they performed was eye-opening — they showed us actual footage of a cracked liner we never would have discovered otherwise. The liner replacement was done neatly and professionally. Worth every penny for the peace of mind alone."
"Matts Brothers repaired our firebox and rebuilt the chimney crown last spring. The quality of the masonry work is exceptional — clean mortar joints, perfect finish, and they matched the brick color better than I expected. They photographed everything before and after. I could tell these guys actually take pride in their trade, which is rare these days."
"I called on a Tuesday and they were at my house by Thursday — impressive availability. The technician was polite, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain what he found in plain English. No pressure to buy anything extra. Just an honest sweep and inspection with a clear written summary. Exactly what I was hoping for and then some."
"We had a chimney cap blow off during a nor'easter and called Matts Brothers the next morning. They came out quickly, measured for a proper stainless steel cap, and had it installed and sealed within the week. Professional from the first call to the final walkthrough. Great communication throughout. Highly recommend to anyone in the area."
"The team at Matts Brothers waterproofed our chimney and repaired the mortar joints after we noticed efflorescence on the brick. They explained the difference between the right sealant and a generic hardware-store product, which I appreciated. A year later after a full winter and wet spring, the brick looks perfect. Real expertise, not just a sales pitch."

A professional chimney sweep in the Medford area generally runs between $150 and $275 depending on flue size, buildup level, and whether a formal inspection is combined with the cleaning. At Matts Brothers Chimney, your written estimate includes a full breakdown — cleaning, inspection, and documentation — so you know precisely what you're paying for before anyone touches a brush.
Chimneys in older Medford homes typically need professional service annually if used regularly, or at minimum every two years even with light use. Homes of that era often have unlined or terracotta-lined flues that are now past their designed service life. Annual inspection catches liner deterioration, mortar joint failure, and crown cracking before they become expensive structural repairs.
National franchise operations prioritize volume and upsell conversion; our model prioritizes craftsmanship and long-term client relationships. We provide written, itemized estimates rather than low-entry-fee tactics. Our technicians are trained specifically in chimney systems — not general handymen on a route. Most Medford clients who've tried both describe our thoroughness and cleanliness as noticeably superior.
Yes — provided our inspection confirms the system is safe to operate, you can use your fireplace the same evening after a sweep. We will clearly tell you if we identify any condition that warrants waiting, such as a freshly repaired mortar joint that needs cure time. We never leave a job without explicitly advising you on the safe-to-use status of your chimney.
Creosote progresses through three stages: a light dusty deposit in Stage 1, a tar-like coating in Stage 2, and a hardened glazed buildup in Stage 3. Stage 1 sweeps out routinely. Stage 2 requires more aggressive cleaning methods. Stage 3 is a serious chimney-fire risk and may require chemical treatment or liner replacement. We show clients their actual buildup via camera or mirror so there's no guesswork.
Yes. Every masonry repair we perform is backed by a written workmanship warranty. Coverage applies to labor and installed materials — if a repair we made fails due to our workmanship within the warranty period, we return and correct it at no charge. Material manufacturer warranties run separately and are documented for you at job completion. We provide this in writing before work begins.
A thorough sweep paired with a Level II camera inspection typically takes between 90 minutes and two-and-a-half hours for a standard single-flue system in Medford. Multi-flue systems or chimneys with significant buildup take longer. We never rush to hit a volume quota. The job is done when it's done correctly, and we schedule our days to allow that time.
A Level I inspection covers all readily accessible areas and is appropriate for a regularly maintained chimney with no system changes. A Level II inspection adds camera scanning of the flue interior and is required when buying or selling a home, after any chimney fire, or when you've changed your heating appliance. Most Medford homes we visit for the first time benefit from a Level II — it reveals what eyes alone cannot see.
