What we run into in Passaic
Passaic is the oldest and densest of the three cities on our Passaic County route. Three in four of its 22,676 housing units predate 1960 and six in ten predate 1940, in neighborhoods like Dundee, the Third Ward, Passaic Park and Lakeview. Only about one unit in five is single-family, and the rest are mostly in two to four unit buildings, with a real share in larger ones. Close to three in four occupied units are rented, so the call usually comes from an owner or a property manager. Gas heats about eight in ten households, but oil still runs in about one in twenty-five, the highest oil share of the three cities, and those flues work every day of the heating season.

Passaic homeowners ask
Do you cover all of Passaic, including Dundee and Lakeview?
Yes, the whole city, with chimney sweeping, inspection, repair and liner work, plus dryer vent and duct cleaning. Tell us which section you are in when you call.
Our building predates 1940. Is the chimney still safe to use?
That depends on the flue's actual condition. Age raises the odds of trouble, so the first step is an inspection of that specific chimney with a camera.
We manage a multi-family building. Can you inspect every flue?
Yes. We inspect each flue and vent serving the building, note which unit each one serves, and send the report to you.
Our building still burns oil. What do you check?
Oil leaves acidic residue and scale, so we look closely at the liner and the boiler connection. If the building switches to gas, the flue size must be checked first.
