About Portland Chimney Care: Chimney Experts in Portland, OR
Portland Chimney Care is a locally owned chimney company serving homeowners across Portland, OR. We clean inspect and repair chimneys and fireplaces and we do it the way we’d want it done in our own homes: carefully, honestly and with the photos to prove it.
Whether it’s your yearly sweep before the heating season, a camera inspection before you buy a home or a repair you’ve been putting off you get the same thing every time: trained technicians an upfront price and a clear explanation of what we found.
Why We Do This Work
Portland is tough on chimneys. Over 100 rainy days a year, moss on every shaded roof, occasional freeze-thaw cycles working into old mortar and thousands of beautiful older homes in Sellwood, Irvington Alberta and Alameda whose brick chimneys have stood for decades. Those chimneys keep families warm, but only when they’re looked after.
Too many homeowners find out about a cracked flue liner or a leaking crown the hard way: smoke in the living room water stains on the ceiling or worse. We started Portland Chimney Care to catch those problems early when they’re still small honest repairs instead of expensive rebuilds.

How We Work
- Honest advice, no upselling. If your chimney is in good condition, we’ll tell you. If something needs fixing, you’ll see the photo and understand why before you decide anything.
- Upfront pricing. Your price is confirmed before work begins, with no hidden fees. Estimates are always free.

- Photo reports. Every inspection comes with a detailed photo report, so you’re never taking our word for anything.
