Those ‘national’ chimney sweep chains advertising ‘$99 sweeps’? They’re cutting corners—using cheap tools, skipping inspections, and leaving your chimney half-clean. We outperform them with better equipment, licensed pros, and local knowledge—and we’ll match or beat their price if you show us their quote. Why? Because we’re Yonkers-based, not a franchise. We know the older brick homes in downtown, the modern condos near the Hudson, and the suburban splits in Mount Vernon. Local expertise = better service.
A properly swept chimney in Yonkers burns cleaner, which means less creosote buildup and fewer repairs over time. How much less? Homeowners who schedule annual sweeps save hundreds per year on fireplace repairs, energy bills, and even home insurance premiums (some insurers offer discounts for maintained chimneys). We’ll show you exactly how your chimney’s condition affects your heating efficiency—because a well-maintained fireplace is a smart investment, not just a luxury.
Chimney sweeps leave soot everywhere—on your floors, in your vents, even in your Yonkers’ winter coats hanging by the door. We contain the mess with tarps, vacuums, and sealed work areas, so you don’t come home to a blackened fireplace or lint-covered carpets. Bonus: We’ll clean up our tools and equipment before we leave—no dropped brushes or forgotten debris. Your home stays spotless. Because let’s be real: no one wants to sweep soot off their hardwood floors after we’re gone.
We hold ourselves to the highest standards so you can hire with total confidence.
For Yonkers homeowners who want a chimney sweep that doesn’t nickel-and-dime you for every visit, Beaver Chimney and Dryer Vent Inc. cuts through the guesswork with upfront pricing and no hidden fees. We know Yonkers winters—damp Hudson Valley air, older brick homes, and fireplaces that see heavy use—so we tailor our service to your chimney’s real needs, not what some national chain’s algorithm says you ‘should’ pay for. Whether it’s a routine chimney sweep or uncovering why your dryer’s taking forever to dry clothes, we diagnose the problem first, then give you the straightforward fix at a fair price. No upselling, no surprise charges, just honest workmanship backed by a team that’s been trusted by neighbors in Yonkers for years.

Yonkers homeowners love this step because it cuts out the guesswork—no more wondering if you’re being overcharged. Pro tip: Bring photos of any smoke, sparks, or strange smells you’ve noticed. It helps us diagnose faster and save you time (and money).
If your chimney’s smoking, sparking, or throwing soot, we’ll schedule you ASAP—often same-day if you’re in Yonkers or nearby Westchester. No waiting weeks for an appointment. We prioritize emergencies because creosote fires don’t wait. How it works: Call or book online, we confirm availability, and we’re at your door within 24 hours (or sooner if it’s critical). No appointment? No problem. We’ll fit you in if we’ve got an opening.
We don’t just brush the obvious soot—we use rotary brushes, high-pressure air systems, and flexible rods to get every inch of your chimney or dryer vent. Why? Because hidden creosote in the flue or lint packed behind the dryer is what causes fires and costly repairs. Dryer vents? We inspect the entire path—from the dryer to the exterior vent—no shortcuts. Chimneys? We check the crown, damper, and liner for damage. Result: A thorough clean that lasts and protects your home.
Before we leave, we’ll walk you through what we found, explain any concerns, and show you the before-and-after. No jargon. No confusing reports. Just straight talk about your chimney or dryer vent’s condition. We also clean up every speck of soot, lint, or debris—no mess left behind. Final step? You’ll get a written summary of the work done, next-step recommendations, and a warranty on our service. Because you deserve to know your home is safe and clean—without any surprises.
"I’ve lived in my 1920s brick home near the Hudson for 15 years, and I finally found a chimney sweep who doesn’t try to sell me on ‘extra services.’ Beaver came in, swept my chimney for half what the last guy quoted, and actually explained why my dryer vent was costing me $50 extra per load. No upsell. No pressure. Just good, honest work. I’ll be calling them every year now."
"We heard about Beaver from a neighbor in Yonkers, and let’s just say we’re never going back to those big-box sweep companies. Our pellet stove was burning inefficiently, and they found a clogged exhaust pipe that was wasting fuel. Fixed it in 30 minutes, charged a fraction of what the dealer wanted, and even showed us how to check it ourselves. Best $80 we’ve spent all year."
"I almost ignored the smoke coming from my chimney—until my wife threatened to move out. Called Beaver, and they showed up same-day, removed Stage 3 creosote (which I had no idea was there), and inspected my flue for cracks. Saved me from a potential fire—and a $3K repair. Pricing? Transparent. Service? Top-notch. Would recommend to anyone in Yonkers."
"I hate when contractors leave my house a mess, but Beaver cleaned up better than they arrived. Dryer vent? Completely clear. Chimney? Spotless. And they didn’t try to sell me on a ‘premium’ inspection—I got all the details in a simple email after the job. Best part? They called ahead when they were 10 minutes out. Professional, fast, and fair. Exactly what you want in a local service."
"I used to think a chimney sweep was just a once-a-year nuisance, but Beaver changed my mind. They found a cracked smoke shelf in my chimney that could’ve caused a fire, and referred me to a trusted mason at a discount. Saved me thousands. Also, they cleaned my dryer vent for less than a new lint trap—and my dryer runs twice as fast now. No fluff. No upsells. Just real value for Yonkers homeowners."
"We moved to Yonkers from the city and hated that our wood stove was smoking up the house. Called Beaver, and they fixed the issue in one visit—adjusted the damper, cleaned the burn pot, and showed us how to burn wood properly. Result? No more soot on the walls. Pricing? Way better than the ‘experts’ we found online. Would 100% recommend to anyone in the area—especially if you’ve got an older home."

Read more →For most Yonkers homes with fireplaces, budget $120–$180 for a standard chimney sweep—that covers a single-flue chimney with moderate creosote buildup. If your chimney’s rarely used (like in newer condos near the Hudson), you might pay closer to $100. We charge by the chimney, not by the hour, so you’ll never get hit with ‘extra time’ fees. Pro tip: If your chimney’s over 20 years old or you burn a lot of wood (common in Yonkers winters), schedule a sweep twice a year to avoid costly repairs down the line.
If your dryer’s running hot but clothes stay damp, your vent’s likely clogged with lint—dryer vent cleaning in Yonkers typically costs $150–$220 for a full duct run (we include the vent pipe outside your home). Lint buildup isn’t just slowing your dryer; it’s a fire hazard, especially in older Yonkers homes with metal ducts. We’ll inspect for blockages, animal nests (a surprise in some Riverdale basements!), and proper airflow, then give you a clear estimate before we start. No ‘hidden damage’ upsells—just the work you need.
Beware of sweeps quoting under $100 for a full chimney service in Yonkers—chances are, they’re cutting corners. A real chimney sweep includes inspecting the flue for cracks, checking your damper, and testing for carbon monoxide risks (critical in older Yonkers homes with brick chimneys). We’ve seen ‘bargain’ sweeps skip these steps, then homeowners end up paying $800+ for a chimney liner repair they didn’t know was needed. Our upfront pricing covers everything—no surprises, no shortcuts.
Absolutely—Yonkers’ humid summers and damp Hudson Valley air mean your chimney’s working harder than you think. If you notice moisture on the fireplace walls or a musty smell when lighting up, it’s a sign your chimney needs a sweep now (not just before winter). Dampness accelerates creosote buildup, which is flammable. We recommend sweeping twice a year for active fireplaces in Yonkers—spring and fall—to keep your chimney dry and safe. A quick sweep now can prevent a costly chimney relining later.
Black soot in your fireplace is a red flag, but it’s not always an emergency—unless you’re seeing it every time you burn wood. Soot usually means incomplete combustion, often from wet or unseasoned firewood (a common issue in Yonkers’ damp climate). We’ll inspect your chimney for blockages or creosote buildup, then advise if a sweep is urgent or can wait. If it’s creosote, we’ll remove it safely—never with a brush that could dislodge chunks into your home (a mistake we’ve seen other Yonkers sweeps make).
No, it’s not. A proper chimney sweep in Yonkers should include a basic roof inspection (looking for debris, animal nests, or obvious damage near the chimney) at no extra cost—it’s part of ensuring your chimney’s safe. If a sweeper quotes you separately for this, walk away. We’ll check for obvious issues like leaves or bird nests clogging your chimney crown (common in Yonkers’ tree-lined streets) and note anything that needs further attention from a roofer. No upsells, just honesty.
Technically, yes—but it’s wise to check your lease first. Many Yonkers landlords require tenants to get written permission before hiring a chimney sweep, especially for older rental properties. If you’re concerned about costs, ask us for a tenant-friendly inspection ($80) to check for obvious hazards (like heavy creosote) before committing to a full sweep. We’ve helped renters in Yonkers negotiate with landlords by providing clear photos and reports of the chimney’s condition. Always document the work in case of disputes.
Winter rates reflect demand and safety risks. In Yonkers, chimneys are used more in winter, so creosote buildup happens faster—meaning more time and care to clean safely. Plus, cold weather can make chimneys more prone to blockages (like ice dams or animal nests seeking warmth). Our winter pricing ($150–$200) accounts for these factors, but we’ll always give you a detailed estimate upfront. If you’re on a tight budget, we can schedule your sweep early fall (before heavy use) to avoid winter surges.
