Somerville chimney service →Draft Pro Chimney Sweep is a Allston-based chimney company serving homeowners across the area. We sweep, inspect, reline, cap, and repair masonry chimneys — and we do it the honest way, with photo documentation, written quotes, and a flat refusal to sell you work your chimney does not need. Most of our jobs come from neighbors who were referred by neighbors, which is exactly the kind of business we set out to build.
Our Allston crew handles the full chimney: flue cleaning to clear creosote, camera flue scan to document what is really up there, chimney leak repair for leaks and failing masonry, chimney cap to keep water and animals out, crown sealing for the slab on top, and stainless flue liner when the flue can no longer contain a fire.
Beyond Allston itself, we cover the surrounding area — including Boston chimney care, chimney service in Brighton, Cambridge chimney care, Brookline, MA. If you searched for a local chimney crew near you, you have already found a local crew that answers the phone.

Most Allston homeowners only think about their chimney when something seems wrong, which makes them easy targets for the scare-tactic end of this trade. Draft Pro Chimney Sweep refuses to work that way. We grade what we find honestly, we explain the difference between a problem that needs fixing now and one that can wait a season, and we put it all in writing. An honest assessment is worth more than a fast sale.
Our service area runs through Allston and the neighboring area communities, where the chimneys tend to be old, hard-working, and overdue for attention. The wood-burning culture here keeps fireplaces in regular use, and that use — combined with the local climate — gives these chimneys a particular set of wear patterns we have learned to look for first.
Safety is the thread running through all of it. Sweep the flue and you remove the fuel for a chimney fire. Inspect it and you catch a cracked liner before it lets heat into the walls. Cap it and you keep sparks off the roof. Reline it and you restore the barrier between the fire and your home. Every chimney service exists for a safety reason, and that is the lens we bring to your Allston home.
The "once a year or else" line is marketing, not code. Here is the honest answer for Allston fireplace owners, based on how much and what you burn.

Read more →That is exactly what an inspection answers. Once a year you get the flue looked at; if the buildup is approaching a quarter inch it is time, and if it is basically clean you can skip the sweep. We follow that standard rather than selling a sweep on a calendar.
Pricing depends on the service and what we find — a standard sweep and Level 1 inspection is straightforward, while repairs are quoted on site after we see the chimney. We give you the number in writing before any work starts, so there are no surprises. Call 617-329-5485 for a Allston estimate.
Certification reflects real training in chimney safety and proper methods, and we hold ourselves to those standards on every job. Beyond the credential, what protects you is our process — documented findings, honest recommendations, and no manufactured urgency.
Sweeps, camera inspections, repairs, caps, crowns, and liners. We cover the full chimney system, which means a leak or a draft problem gets diagnosed and fixed by the same crew rather than handed off. Call 617-329-5485 and tell us what you are seeing.
From the first sweep to a full crown rebuild, you get one Allston crew, one honest assessment, and photos of every job — not a sales pitch.
