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.

How Copperfield Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- Chimney Cap 13″ x 13″ and 17″ x 17″ models with galvanized mesh - The mesh on these caps corrodes faster than the stainless steel shell, especially in Kennesaw’s humid summers where afternoon thunderstorms trap moisture against the flue. We see the mesh rust through while the cap frame still looks fine. Our fix: replace with 304 stainless mesh or upgrade to a Gelco cap with a lifetime warranty on the mesh, documented in your photo record.
- Copperfield wood-burning firebox refractory panels (24″, 36″, and 42″ units) - These panels crack from thermal shock when homeowners burn unseasoned oak or pine, which is common in Kennesaw because local firewood suppliers often sell green wood labeled “seasoned.” The panels don’t fail all at once; they spider-web first. We camera-scan the firebox to map every crack, then source HeatShield refractory panels rated to the same spec - or OEM Copperfield panels if the homeowner prefers - with the written price for each option before we order.
- Gas fireplace insert flex line connections (pre-2018 units) - Copperfield’s earlier gas inserts used a brass flare fitting at the valve that loosens from vibration during blower cycling. The symptom is a faint sulfur smell on startup or a pilot that won’t stay lit. We pressure-test the entire run at 14 inches water column, replace the fitting with a stainless flare rated for NG or LP depending on your Kennesaw service, and retest before we leave.
- Top-sealing damper assemblies on Copperfield masonry conversions - The cable housing on these dampers binds after 5-7 years of pollen and creosote buildup, common in Kennesaw’s heavy oak canopy. The damper won’t open fully, so smoke backs up into the room on cold starts. We remove the housing, clean the cable run with a flue-specific solvent, and if the cable is frayed - we see this on about 30% of calls - we replace with a Famco stainless cable assembly that outlasts the original.
- Copperfield chimney liner collars on 6″ and 8″ flexible liner kits - The collar sealant that ships with these kits degrades in Georgia’s UV exposure if the top of the chimney gets direct afternoon sun, which happens on west-facing homes in Kennesaw’s Legacy Park and Barrett Greene subdivisions. The gap lets water run between the liner and flue tile, spalling the tile from the inside. We pull the collar, inspect the tile with the camera, and reseal with DuraFlex high-temp silicone rated to 500°F continuous - not the standard RTV that some crews use.

Why Kennesaw Homeowners Call Level Two Chimney Kennesaw for Copperfield Work

We’ve inspected and cleaned more than 38,000 chimneys since 2009, and a growing share of those are in Kennesaw’s 2015-2025 builds where Copperfield products were spec’d by the builder. Corrine Halstead and our crew know the difference between a Copperfield cap that needs mesh and one that needs the whole frame replaced - because we’ve photographed both outcomes and written the price for each.
We’re independently owned and operated, not a franchise, and we source materials through Haven’s buying network from DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, Olympia Chimney, and Famco alongside Copperfield parts. That multi-brand access keeps your price honest: if an aftermarket part meets the spec and outlasts OEM, we’ll show you the comparison in writing. Clause 4 of the Haven Standard requires a photo record on every job, so you leave with evidence, not a handshake.
Live phone support runs 24 hours a day. Background-checked, uniformed technicians. License number on every page. And the 365-Day Done Right Promise - if it’s not done right, we make it right.
FAQs
No - manufacturer warranties cover defects in materials and workmanship, not routine service or repairs performed by qualified technicians. As an independent Copperfield service provider, we use parts that meet or exceed OEM specifications and document everything, so your warranty stays intact on any component that fails due to manufacturing defect. If you’re unsure what’s still covered, we can review your installation paperwork during the inspection. Call (678) 535-2204 and we’ll sort it out.
Most common Copperfield parts - refractory panels, chimney caps, damper cables - arrive within 3-5 business days through our distributors. Specialty gas valve assemblies or older insert components can take 7-10 days. We don’t start work until the part is in hand and you’ve approved the written price, so there are no delays mid-job. If your fireplace is unsafe to use, we’ll tell you plainly and help you plan around the wait.
Replace when the firebox is cracked through to the metal jacket, the flue liner is compromised beyond spot repair, or repair costs exceed 60% of a new installed unit - we run that math with you and show the camera evidence. Repair when the issue is localized: a failed damper, corroded cap, or single refractory panel. We won’t recommend replacement without photos you can see for yourself, and we’ll flag anything that can safely wait. Free estimates mean you get the numbers either way.
Gas fireplaces: annually, before the first fire of the season. Wood-burning units: after every cord of wood burned, or annually if you burn fewer than two cords. Kennesaw’s oak-heavy tree canopy produces more airborne debris than pine forests, so gas insert blowers and vent terminals clog faster here - we check both during every tune-up. Skip it and you’re risking delayed ignition, CO spillage, or a chimney fire from creosote buildup. Call (678) 535-2204 to book before burning season.
Yes - we size the insert to your existing flue, run a new gas line or adapt the existing stub, and pressure-test the entire system. Copperfield wood-to-gas conversions require a listed insert and proper liner sizing; we handle the permit paperwork for Kennesaw and schedule the city inspection. The written price includes the insert, liner kit, labor, permit, and final test. Most conversions take one day, with the gas company connection scheduled separately.
