Matt's & Sons Chimney was founded on a straightforward principle that still drives every job we take in Manhasset: a chimney service company should prepare your home for winter rather than profit from your emergencies. Our founder Matt grew up on Long Island, spent years training under certified chimney specialists, and built this business around the seasonal rhythms that North Shore homeowners actually live with — the first cold week in October that sends everyone scrambling, the February ice storms that reveal every deferred repair, the spring thaw that exposes what a hard winter did to your masonry. We started small and local, and we've stayed that way deliberately, because it lets us maintain quality control on every single job rather than spreading thin across the region.
Every technician at Matt's & Sons completes formal training aligned with CSIA (Chimney Safety Institute of America) standards and works under direct supervision until we're confident in their judgment — not just their technical skill. We invest in commercial-grade equipment: HEPA-filtered vacuum systems that keep your Manhasset living room dust-free during service, high-definition camera inspection rigs that capture flue-liner defects invisible to the naked eye, and rotary cleaning systems that remove third-stage glazed creosote that brush-only approaches leave behind. We carry full general liability insurance and workers' compensation on every crew member. When you let us onto your roof and into your home, we take that trust seriously and make sure you're protected whether the job is routine or complex.
We serve Manhasset and the surrounding North Shore and Nassau County communities, and we're genuinely invested in those neighborhoods. We know the housing stock — the mid-century brick Colonials off Plandome Road, the older Tudor-styles near the Americana, the newer construction closer to Great Neck with gas-insert fireplaces that require different liner specifications than wood-burning masonry systems. That local knowledge means we diagnose faster, quote accurately, and avoid the generic one-size-fits-all approach that costs homeowners money. When you call Matt's & Sons, you get a local company with a real stake in your community's safety and satisfaction — and a team that will still be here next fall when it's time for your next annual service.
