At Flint Flue Chimney LLC, we know buying your first Newport home is exciting—and a little overwhelming. Between the saltbox charm and ocean views, it’s easy to overlook the chimney until the first crisp fall evening when you realize it’s been years since it was last cleaned. That’s where we step in: no upsells, no jargon, just honest work so your fireplace stays safe, warm, and ready for those Newport harbor breezes. We treat your chimney like we treat our own family’s—with care that lasts beyond the initial sweep.
Many first-time homeowners in Newport don’t realize that even a beautifully maintained home can hide hidden dangers in its chimney. Creosote buildup, unseen cracks, or blockages from seagull nests (yes, they’re a real nuisance in coastal RI) can turn a cozy fire into a serious hazard. Our certified sweeps use modern tools and old-fashioned thoroughness to spot and fix issues before they become costly repairs or safety risks. We’ll walk you through every step, explaining what we find in plain English—because peace of mind shouldn’t require a chimney-science degree.
We’re a local family-owned business serving Newport and the surrounding Rhode Island coast, because chimneys here face unique challenges. Salt air accelerates wear, wood-burning stoves work overtime in winter, and historic homes often have original flues that need special attention. Whether you’re in a restored Victorian on Bellevue Avenue or a cottage on Ocean Drive, we tailor our service to your home’s age, use, and location. No franchise scripts, no rushed crews—just reliable, respectful service that keeps your chimney—and your family—safe year after year.
We’re not just another chimney sweep—we’re a local business with deep roots in Newport. Our team knows the unique challenges of historic homes, from salt corrosion to century-old flues that weren’t built to modern safety standards. We’re licensed, insured, and backed by a 10-year warranty on all repairs, so you’re covered even if something goes wrong years down the line.
Chimney work is dangerous, which is why we carry full liability insurance and worker’s comp. We’re also licensed by the State of Rhode Island, so you can trust we’re following code—not cutting corners. Our estimates are always free, with no hidden fees. We’ll even show you photos of any issues we find, so you understand exactly what needs fixing before we start.
Winter storms in Newport can knock out power and leave you scrambling for a safe heat source. If your chimney is damaged or clogged, we offer same-day service for emergencies. Call us by 2 PM, and we’ll be at your door by 5 PM. No waiting weeks for an appointment—just a quick, thorough fix so you can heat your home safely.
