Smoke pushing back into the room, a burning smell after a hot fire, or a CO alarm sounding is not a next-week problem. Our emergency line in Valley View, Dorchester is answered around the clock, and a technician is dispatched with a camera, containment gear, and the parts needed to make the appliance safe or safely shut it down.
What counts as an emergency
Smoke or CO entering the home, a chimney fire (even a small one), visible flames or sparks at the crown, a collapsed flue, or a strong burning smell after use. All of these get same-day dispatch in Valley View, Dorchester.
What we do on arrival
Isolate the appliance, camera the flue, check for cracked tiles and blockages, and either return the system to safe operation or tag it out with a written explanation of why.
After a chimney fire
A Level 2 inspection is mandatory before the appliance is used again. Cracked liner tiles and burnt mortar joints are invisible from the firebox but obvious on camera — and insurers require the documentation.

Emailed the same day: before/after photos, creosote grade, code notes, and a plain-English list of what needs doing and what does not.
What Dorchester customers say
4.9 out of 5 from 743 reviews across the GTA. A selection relevant to this service below.
1920s brick, plenty of quirks. The technician clearly knew older builds and pointed out mortar joints to watch rather than pushing a rebuild.
Previous company swept and said everything was fine. Diamond ran a camera and showed me a cracked liner tile on screen. Glad I got the second opinion.
They told me the flue did not need sweeping yet and charged only for the inspection. First contractor in years to talk me out of spending money.
Quoted over the phone, confirmed on site before starting, and the final invoice matched exactly. Refreshing in this trade.
