Why Choose Lou Curley’s Chimney Service?

Most chimney companies in Delaware County can sweep a flue. Very few can diagnose a smoking problem, reline a furnace or boiler flue to code, restore a fireplace with an Ahren-Fire retrofit system, or tell you honestly that you don’t need the repair someone else quoted. Our team can do all of it, because we’ve invested in training that goes far beyond a basic chimney sweep certification.

Lou Curley is Pennsylvania’s first CSIA Master Chimney Sweep. Lou and employee Dave Curley are two of only three CSIA Master Sweeps in all of Pennsylvania. Our team collectively holds every nationally recognized certification in the chimney and venting industry, spanning CSIA, the National Fireplace Institute, and F.I.R.E. No other company in Pennsylvania can say the same.

Our Certifications

Our team holds certifications with all three nationally recognized chimney and venting organizations:

  • Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA), including two Master Chimney Sweeps and a Certified Dryer Exhaust Technician (C-DET)
  • National Fireplace Institute (NFI), including Master Hearth Professional certification across wood, gas, and pellet specialties
  • Fireplace Investigation, Research & Education Service (F.I.R.E.), including Certified Inspector, Certified Technician, and Registered Hearth Advisor

These credentials require ongoing education, testing, and continuing education credits. They set our team apart from the average chimney sweep who may have no formal training at all.

Our Industry Education

Lou Curley is Pennsylvania’s first CSIA Master Chimney Sweep, and employee Dave Curley followed to become the second. Together, they are two of only three CSIA Master Sweeps in all of Pennsylvania. The Master Chimney Sweep certification is the highest level of professional credential in the chimney industry, requiring years of field experience, advanced coursework, and demonstrated mastery across inspections, repairs, relining, and code compliance.

Our team pursues ongoing educational training and classes throughout the year, because the codes, products, and best practices in this industry change constantly. We don’t rely on what worked ten years ago. We stay current so our customers get the right recommendation for their specific system.
