Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed
Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

We’ve been working Burlington County chimneys for over 42 years, and Evesham’s housing stock is unlike anything you’ll find in older South Jersey towns. The planned communities around Marlton - Kings Grant, Marlton Crossing, the townhomes off Route 70 - were built fast during the 1980s through the early 2000s with zero-clearance prefabricated fireplaces, not masonry stacks. That means when an Evesham homeowner calls us about a “chimney problem,” we’re usually looking at a metal flue, a chase cover, and refractory panels that have hit their 20-30 year design life. We know the difference, and we don’t treat your prefab system like a 1920s brick chimney.
Our scheduling is coordinated from our New York City office, but our crews live and work in South Jersey. They know Evesham’s roads, the difference between a 1987 Ryan Homes colonial and a 2004 Pulte bi-level, and what Burlington County’s freeze-thaw cycles do to the galvanized chase covers that top most of these systems. That local fluency matters. It means faster diagnosis, fewer return trips, and no surprises on the bill.
Why Hearthstone Chimney Co. Is Evesham’s Preferred Chimney Liner & Rebuild Company
We’ve earned our reputation in Evesham the slow way: by showing homeowners exactly what we find before we quote a dollar. Our Level-2 camera inspections end with photos you can see and a plain-English verdict. No jargon, no scare tactics, no pressure. If the refractory panels in your Kings Grant colonial are spalling, you’ll see the flaking ceramic on screen before we discuss replacement. If the chase cover on your Centex-built Marlton home is rusted through, we’ll photograph the hole and the water staining beneath it. Documentation first, recommendations second.
Evesham customers call us back because we answer the phone. A live person, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Not a callback queue, not an app, not “leave a message and we’ll get back to you.” When your prefab fireplace is venting into the wall cavity because a chase-cover failure has rotted the firebox surround, you don’t want to wait for a return call.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and most Evesham liner and rebuild jobs finish in one visit. We give you no-hassle upfront pricing - the number on the estimate is the number on the invoice.

Our Chimney Liner & Rebuild Services in Evesham
Stainless Steel Liner Installation
For Evesham’s prefabricated fireplace systems, a stainless steel liner is often the right repair when the original factory metal flue has corroded at the joints or separated under thermal cycling. We use DuraFlex smooth-wall stainless liners, sized precisely to your appliance’s BTU rating and venting configuration. In Marlton colonials where the original chase cover failed and water tracked down the flue, a stainless liner restores proper draft and contains combustion gases even if the outer chase has minor deterioration. Typical install in Evesham: $2,200-$3,400, including the liner, top plate, and connection fitting.

Flexible Liner Solutions
Some Evesham prefab systems have offset flue paths or tight chase dimensions that make rigid stainless impractical. For these, we use flexible alloy liners from trusted manufacturers, navigated into place with camera guidance so we know the full length is seated correctly. This matters in Evesham’s older townhome communities where chase access is limited and the flue path isn’t straight. Flexible liner installs typically run $2,400-$3,600 in this market.

Liner Replacement for Failed Factory Flues
Here’s where Evesham’s housing age hits hard. The galvanized steel flues in 1990s K. Hovnanian and Centex prefab systems were never meant to last 30 years. Burlington County’s humid summers and freeze-thaw winters accelerate corrosion at the flue joints and the chase cover interface. When we find a separated or perforated factory flue during camera inspection, liner replacement isn’t optional - it’s a safety repair. Combustion gases leaking into wall cavities or chase enclosures create carbon monoxide risk and fire hazard. We replace with code-compliant stainless or alloy liners, document the before-and-after with photos, and provide the written 90-Day Done Right Promise. Evesham liner replacement jobs generally fall between $1,800-$3,200.

Partial Rebuild - Chase, Firebox, and Surround
In Evesham, “rebuild” rarely means brick-by-brick masonry reconstruction. It means replacing the chase cover, refractory panels, and damaged framing on a prefab system whose enclosure has been compromised by water intrusion. We see this constantly in vinyl-sided and hardiplank chases around Marlton: the chase cover rusts through, water pours onto the firebox, the refractory panels crack and spall, and the OSB or framing behind the surround begins to rot. A partial rebuild addresses the chase cover (we use Gelco or Olympia Chimney galvanized or stainless replacements), the firebox panels, and any damaged enclosure framing. Camera evidence drives every recommendation. Typical Evesham partial rebuild: $2,800-$4,500.

Trusted Brands We Service in Evesham
We don’t substitute builder-grade parts on Evesham chimneys. Our trucks stock professional-grade materials from DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield - the brands that professional sweeps and rebuilders actually specify. For Evesham’s prefab-heavy housing stock, that means chase covers that outlast the originals, refractory panels rated for the full temperature cycle, and liner connections that seal properly the first time. Because we carry common sizes and configurations on every truck, most Evesham jobs don’t wait for parts. When we find the problem during your camera inspection, we can often complete the repair that same visit. That’s the difference between a company that plans to be in town thirty years from now and one that isn’t.
Common Chimney Liner & Rebuild Problems We See in Evesham Homes
- Rusted-through chase covers on 1990s prefab systems. The galvanized steel covers on K. Hovnanian and Centex homes around Marlton corrode predictably after 20-25 years. Once the cover fails, water enters the chase, degrades the firebox refractory from above, and rots the framing. Homeowners often call for a sweep and learn the real problem is structural. Camera inspection catches this before it becomes a wall-cavity mold issue.
- Separated metal-flue joints from freeze-thaw cycling. Burlington County’s November-through-March temperature swings expand and contract prefab flue sections at their slip joints. Over years, the joints separate, creating gaps where combustion gases escape into the chase. A brush sweep won’t find this. Our Level-2 camera does.
- Third-degree glazed creosote in occasional-use chimneys. Evesham homeowners who use their fireplaces only during holiday gatherings or cold snaps often assume light use means light buildup. South Jersey’s humid summers actually accelerate creosote polymerization in cool, damp flues. Glazed creosote can’t be brushed off metal or clay tile - it requires chemical treatment or liner replacement. We determine which with camera inspection, not guesswork.
- Firebox refractory panel spalling from water intrusion. The ceramic panels lining prefab fireboxes crack and flake when exposed to moisture from chase-cover or flashing failures. In Marlton’s colonial-style homes with vinyl-sided chases, this damage progresses behind the visible surround until panels begin falling into the firebox. We document the spalling on camera before quoting replacement with OEM-spec panels.

FAQs - Chimney Liner & Rebuild in Evesham
You likely need camera inspection before anyone can answer that honestly. Prefab fireplaces from the 1990s have factory-built metal flues with a 20-30 year design life, and many in Evesham’s Marlton-area communities have corroded at the joints or separated from freeze-thaw cycling. A brush sweep cleans accessible surfaces but cannot repair a perforated flue or separated joint. We run a camera, show you the flue condition on screen, and recommend cleaning only if the flue is intact. If it’s compromised, liner replacement is a safety repair, not an upsell. Call (856) 543-2929 for a free estimate.
Once the galvanized chase cover rusts through - common on 1990s K. Hovnanian and Centex systems in Evesham - water enters the chase enclosure and tracks down onto the firebox refractory panels. Those panels are ceramic; they crack and spall when wet. The moisture also degrades any OSB or framing behind the surround. What started as a $150 sweep call becomes a chase cover replacement, refractory panel replacement, and possible framing repair. We catch this early with camera inspection. In a 1990s K. Hovnanian colonial off Marlton’s Kings Grant, our tech ran a camera down a factory-built metal flue and found the galvanized chase cover rusted through, water tracking onto the refractory panels and crumbling the firebox - exactly the hidden damage Burlington County’s November-to-March freeze-thaw cycles drive. We documented the chase-cover failure and panel spalling on camera, showed the homeowner the screen before quoting, and fit a DuraFlex stainless liner and new firebox panels only after they could see the evidence themselves.
Yes. NFPA 211 requires a Level 2 internal inspection before any liner installation, and we won’t quote liner work without one. Our Level 2 includes full camera evaluation of the flue, firebox, and smoke chamber, with photos you receive and a plain-English verdict. This protects you from unnecessary work and protects us from missing hidden damage that would compromise the liner. The inspection fee applies toward your repair if you proceed. Call (856) 543-2929 to schedule.
Three things: rust streaking down the vinyl or hardiplank chase siding (indicates chase cover failure), white efflorescence or staining on the chase exterior (moisture intrusion), and any debris or panel fragments in the firebox (refractory deterioration). Also note any draft problems, smoke smell when the fireplace isn’t in use, or moisture on interior walls near the chase. These are all signs that cleaning alone won’t fix the underlying problem. We recommend annual camera inspection for any Evesham prefab system over 20 years old. Call for a free estimate.
No. Glazed or third-degree creosote has polymerized into a hard, tar-like layer that mechanical brushing cannot remove from metal or clay tile flues. In Evesham’s humid South Jersey climate, occasional-use chimneys are especially prone to this condition. Removal requires chemical treatment to break down the glaze, or liner replacement if the buildup is extensive or the flue is already compromised. We determine which approach is appropriate through camera inspection and moisture meter readings. Never let a sweep tell you they’ve “brushed it out” without camera verification. Call (856) 543-2929 for an honest assessment - estimates are free.
