Call (720) 674-7312

We’ve worked Denver chimneys since 2009 - more than 38,000 inspections and cleanings, every one with a camera-down-the-flue Level 2 scan and a documented photo record. Denver’s altitude, curtailment cycles, and century-old housing stock create fireplace problems you won’t find in Kansas City or Portland. We name what we find, show you the footage, and put the price in writing before anyone picks up a tool.

Why Level Two Chimney Denver Is Denver’s Preferred Fireplace Services Company

Our reputation in Denver is built on documentation, not promises. Every job starts with an NFPA 211 Level 2 inspection - camera scan, written scope, written price - and ends with a photo archive you keep. That’s Haven Standard Clause 4, and we’ve operated that way since 2009.

Homeowners in Baker, Highlands, and Harvey Park leave reviews citing the same pattern: the technician showed them the cracked flue tile or spalling crown on screen, explained what it meant, and handed over a written price before asking for a decision. No surprise charges. No “we’ll tell you when we’re done.” Our 365-Day Done Right Promise means if it’s not right, we make it right.

Calls to (720) 674-7312 are answered by a live person, 24 hours a day. We text when your technician is en route, and every crew is background-checked, uniformed, and license-verified. Scheduling and dispatch run from our Denver office, so we’re not routing you through a call center three states away.

Our Fireplace Services in Denver

Wood Burning Fireplace Service

At 5,280 feet, Denver’s air contains roughly 17% less oxygen than at sea level. Wood fires burn incompletely here, depositing measurably more creosote per cord than in lower-elevation cities. Add the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s wood-burning curtailment program - Red Air Quality days when your fireplace sits cold, Green days when it runs hard - and flues experience intense use-dormancy cycles that harden deposits into glazed third-degree creosote faster than standard annual cleaning schedules account for.

We see this in Capitol Hill and Cheesman Park every spring: homeowners who burned aggressively through November and December Green Days, then went dark for weeks during curtailment stretches, arrive with thick glazed creosote fused to cracked clay-tile liners. Our Level 2 camera inspection finds it. Our written report documents it. Then we price the sweep or repair in writing before starting.

Gas Fireplace Service

Denver’s gas fireplace conversions have surged as Red Day curtailments make wood burning unpredictable. But many conversions vent into original masonry flues never sized or clearanced for gas appliances. We inspect the flue liner, check draft performance, and verify clearances to combustibles - all with camera documentation. If the existing flue won’t safely handle the conversion, we show you why and price the liner or venting solution in writing. Materials come through our Haven buying network: DuraFlex, HeatShield, and Olympia Chimney products sourced to keep pricing honest.

Fireplace Insert Installation & Service

Inserts are popular in Denver’s 1950s-70s ranch homes - Harvey Park, Barnum, Westwood - where original open fireplaces are inefficient but the masonry is sound. The critical issue is the flue connection: an insert shoved into a firebox with a flexible liner run halfway up the chimney is a carbon monoxide risk we find regularly. Our Level 2 inspection verifies the full liner path, top to bottom, with camera footage. We install inserts with complete liner systems, proper termination, and written warranty under Haven Standard Clause 1.

Damper Repair & Replacement

Denver’s freeze-thaw temperature swings - a January week can cycle from −10°F to 55°F - warp and corrode dampers faster than in stable climates. A stuck or missing damper wastes heated air up the flue in winter and admits hot attic air in summer. We inspect damper operation during every Level 2 service, repair or replace with stainless steel or cast-iron units as needed, and document the before-and-after with photos.

Firebox Repair

Denver’s original Victorian and Craftsman fireboxes - common in Curtis Park and Potter-Lawson - were built with common brick and lime mortar, not the refractory materials modern codes require. Decades of direct flame exposure spall the brick and erode mortar joints, creating gaps that let heat reach combustible framing. We repair with HeatShield refractory sealant or rebuild with proper materials, always after camera inspection of the surrounding flue system. No firebox work without verifying what’s above it.

Fireplace Conversion (Wood to Gas or Electric)

Conversion demand spikes every fall in Denver as CDPHE announces curtailment forecasts. We handle the full scope: gas line coordination, burner and log set selection, flue liner sizing or direct-vent installation, and permit documentation. Every conversion starts with a Level 2 inspection to confirm the existing chimney can safely handle the new appliance - or to document why it can’t.

Common Fireplace Services Problems We See in Denver Homes

• Original unlined brick flues in pre-1940s Denver homes. Capitol Hill, Baker, and Curtis Park Victorians often have flues built with nothing but common brick - no clay tile, no stainless liner. A Level 1 flashlight glance can’t assess them. Our Level 2 camera finds the gaps, glaze, and mortar loss that justify relining - or proves the flue is sound for continued use.
• Cracked chimney crowns from freeze-thaw cycling. Denver’s Front Range position drives violent temperature swings and 57 inches of wet, heavy snow annually. Chimney crowns on 1950s-70s Harvey Park and Westwood ranches crack, letting snowmelt wick down through corbeled brick caps. By the time you notice mortar falling on the roof, water has already spalled interior brick and degraded the flue liner.
• Glazed third-degree creosote from altitude and curtailment cycling. High-altitude incomplete combustion plus Green Day/Red Day use patterns fuses hardened creosote into flue tile that a standard wire brush won’t touch. We identify the deposit class on camera and price mechanical removal or chemical treatment in writing - never a surprise upgrade mid-job.
• Furnaces and water heaters vented into original masonry stacks. Denver’s older neighborhoods are full of masonry chimneys now serving gas appliances they were never designed for. Draft problems, spillage, and liner corrosion are common. A fireplace service call often uncovers these issues first - we document them with camera footage and written scope for your HVAC contractor or our repair crew.
