(516) 289-9316Contact Top Hat Chimney - Free Chimney Cleaning Estimate in Brooklyn
Call Top Hat Chimney at (516) 289-9316 to schedule your free chimney cleaning estimate in Brooklyn. When you call, a live coordinator answers and connects you with our local team, not a maze of menus. You’ll get straight answers about pricing, timing, and what your chimney actually needs. No pressure, no obligation, just honest information from people who work in Brooklyn’s neighborhoods every day.
What Happens When You Call
Step 1: You call (516) 289-9316. A live coordinator picks up, listens to what’s going on with your chimney, and asks a few quick questions about your home’s heating setup and when you last had a sweep. You won’t get transferred three times or put on hold listening to a jingle.
Step 2: We schedule an assessment at your Brooklyn home. We find a time that works for you. We serve every neighborhood on this page, and we’ll give you a clear arrival window so you’re not waiting around all day.
Step 3: You get a written estimate before any work begins. Wendell Pike or a member of his local team walks through what your chimney needs, shows you camera footage if there’s any question about liner condition or creosote buildup, and puts the price in writing. You decide what happens next.
Step 4: The work gets done right. If you approve the estimate, we complete the job and leave your home cleaner than we found it. You get a record of what was done, and we’re back on the phone if anything ever comes up.
Why Brooklyn Homeowners Call Us First
- We know Brooklyn’s housing stock. From the brownstones of Brooklyn Heights to the attached brick rowhouses of Bushwick and Ridgewood, we understand how older masonry chimneys in this borough age, crack, and accumulate creosote. That local knowledge means we spot problems faster and don’t recommend work that isn’t needed.
- Licensed and insured, with real accountability. Every professional working under the Top Hat Chimney name is required to hold the license and insurance their state mandates. Wendell Pike puts his name on every job, and that name is still on the truck when we pull away.
- Transparent pricing with a written estimate. The price we quote is the price you pay. We hand you a written estimate before work starts, and there are no surprise charges added at the door. If your chimney is in good shape, we’ll tell you that plainly and recommend you skip the extra work.
- Ninety days in writing on every chimney job. Top Hat Chimney stands behind the work with a written 90-day guarantee. If something’s not right, one call brings us back. That’s the kind of accountability that comes from being part of the neighborhood, not just passing through it.

Frequently Asked Questions - Booking & Estimates
Yes, the chimney cleaning estimate is free, with no obligation and no hard sell. You’ll get a written quote that shows exactly what we recommend and what it costs. If we think your chimney can wait, we’ll say so. Call (516) 289-9316 to book yours.
Most Brooklyn addresses can be scheduled within 2 to 5 business days of your call, and we’ll give you a clear arrival window rather than asking you to wait all day. Call (516) 289-9316 and the coordinator will look at the schedule for your neighborhood right then.
We don’t add a surcharge for weekend appointments, but our schedule fills up quickly, especially in autumn and early winter. If you want a Saturday slot before burning season, calling a few weeks ahead is the smart move. Reach us at (516) 289-9316 to check availability.
Just your address and a rough idea of when your chimney was last cleaned or inspected. If you’ve noticed anything unusual, like smoke backing into the room, a smell from the fireplace in summer, or crumbling mortar, mention it. Photos help too, but we’ll see everything when we arrive. Call (516) 289-9316 when you’re ready to schedule.
We accept all major credit cards and cash, and payment is due when the job is complete. You’ll see the total on your written estimate before we start, so there are no surprises. Questions about payment? Call (516) 289-9316 and ask.
