Chimney Service Lake Ronkonkoma NY

Chimney Service in Lake Ronkonkoma -- What to Know

Lake Ronkonkoma is part of Town of Brookhaven, Suffolk County. The area has Ranches and split-levels, 1950s–1975. Oil heat is common throughout this area — annual flue cleaning and monitoring for soot buildup is essential safety maintenance, not a suggestion. Central Suffolk's postwar housing stock means many chimneys are now 50–70 years old. Clay tile liners installed at original construction are at or approaching end of service life.

DME Maintenance has been servicing chimneys in Lake Ronkonkoma and throughout Suffolk County since 2001. Every job is personally performed by the owner — no subcontractors, no call centers. Call 631-316-0622 or text us for same-week scheduling.

Service	Best For	Starting Price
Chimney Inspection (Level 1)	Annual safety check — always included with cleaning at no extra charge	$185+
Dryer Vent Cleaning	Clogged dryer vents are the #1 cause of home appliance fires in the US. Annual cleaning takes under an hour and can be combined with your chimney service. From $165.	$165+
Chimney Cleaning & Sweep	See individual service pages for detailed pricing by fuel type	$185–$299
Wood Fireplace Chimney Sweep	Creosote is the leading cause of chimney fires. Annual sweeping before fireplace season keeps your family safe.	$275+
Chimney Cap Installation	A missing or broken chimney cap is an open invitation to water, birds, and squirrels. Replacement from $285 installed.	$285+
Chimney Damper (Top-Sealing)	Cold drafts, stuck dampers, smoke smell in summer — all fixed with a top-sealing damper. Suffolk County's most overlooked fireplace upgrade. From $275 installed.	$1,100+
Chimney Crown Repair	The crown seals the top of your chimney. A cracked crown lets rain fall straight into the flue — crown repair starts at $435.	$435+
Chimney Pointing	Mortar joints last 25–30 years. When they fail, water follows. Pointing stops the damage before it gets expensive.	$660+
Stainless Steel Chimney Liner	Factory-authorized liner installation. If your home is over 20 years old or you're converting from oil to gas, a stainless steel liner is almost certainly needed.	$1,750+

Level 2 Inspection (Home Sale)	Buying or selling in Suffolk County? A Level 2 chimney inspection satisfies lender requirements, home inspector findings, and gives buyers a clean bill of health — or an honest repair estimate before closing.	Free estimate
Emergency Chimney Service	Blocked flue. No heat. Carbon monoxide alarm. Storm damage. Call DME Maintenance at 516-690-7471 — same-week emergency chimney service across all of Suffolk County.	Free estimate
Gas Chimney Cleaning	Gas combustion leaves acidic deposits that destroy clay liners. Annual cleaning protects your system and your family.	$185
Oil Chimney Cleaning	Oil burner chimneys accumulate heavy soot that restricts airflow and causes puffbacks. Annual cleaning is your first line of defense.	$220
Gas Fireplace Cleaning	Gas fireplaces need annual cleaning too — burners clog, pilots drift, and venting can fail silently.	$195+
Wood Stove Cleaning	Wood stoves burn hotter and accumulate creosote faster than fireplaces. Annual cleaning is not optional.	$299+
Pellet Stove Cleaning	Pellet stoves are efficient but ash-intensive. Annual professional cleaning keeps burn quality high and prevents shutdowns.	$299+
Chimney Blockage Removal	A blocked chimney is a CO hazard. Birds, squirrels, raccoons, and debris can seal a flue completely. Same-week service available.	Free estimate
Chimney Chase Cover	Factory chase covers rust through in 5–10 years. A custom stainless steel replacement lasts a lifetime.	Free estimate

Chimney Flashing Repair	Most Suffolk County 'roof leaks' near the chimney are actually flashing failures. Free on-site diagnosis — we find the source and fix it permanently.	Free estimate
Carbon Monoxide Safety Inspection	Carbon monoxide is colorless, odorless, and kills dozens of Long Island families every year. Your chimney is the most common source. Here is what to know and what to do.	Free estimate
Smoke Problem Diagnosis	If smoke is coming into your home when the fireplace or heating system is running, stop using it immediately and call DME Maintenance at 516-690-7471.	Free estimate

Oil-to-Gas Chimney Conversion	Switching from oil to gas heat in Suffolk County? Your existing clay tile chimney liner almost certainly won't pass inspection. DME Maintenance installs the code-required stainless steel liner — factory authorized, lifetime warranty — and coordinates directly with your plumber and gas company.	$1,750+
Chimney Rebuild	When chimney pointing and crown repair are no longer enough — when the brickwork is failing, the structure is compromised, or the chimney is leaning — a rebuild is the only permanent solution. DME Maintenance has rebuilt Suffolk County chimneys since 2001.	$1,320+
Animals in Chimney	Raccoons, squirrels, starlings, and bats all use uncapped Suffolk County chimneys as dens, nesting sites, and entry points.
