The Clift family of Fire-Safe Chimney Sweeps are experts at repairing all types and ages of masonry chimneys. Our family has been building, cleaning, and repairing chimneys since 1863.

We service all types and ages of fireplaces and flues for residential properties including historic homes. We also inspect and sweep oil and gas furnace flues!

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure

Walkersville has hot and humid summers and cool winters with highly variable seasonal snowfall. Due to its elevation and distance from the Chesapeake Bay, temperatures in Walkersville are often considerably lower than in eastern parts of Maryland, especially at night. Frequent freeze-thaw cycles, higher than average snowfall, and more frequent use of fireplaces by Frederick County homeowners means Middletown chimneys often require service more frequently than in other areas of Maryland. If you haven’t had your chimney inspected recently, call Fire-Safe to schedule an appointment before your next fire.
