Chimney Service in Landmark
When Landmark homeowners light the first fire of the season, they are trusting a flue nobody has looked inside since last winter. The housing here — garden condos, townhomes and high-rise communities in the West End — sets the chimney workload in Landmark. Our dispatch runs City of Alexandria routes out of Beltsville several times a week, so Landmark is never a special trip.
Landmark is about 20 miles from our Beltsville headquarters — typically a 50-minute drive in normal traffic. If your Landmark address carries one of these ZIPs — 22304 — the ZIP checker on our homepage will route you straight back to this page.

Local Chimney Notes
Why Landmark chimneys keep us busy: Gas logs still need the flue
Plenty of Landmark fireplaces were converted to gas over the years, and the flue above them was simply forgotten. Gas exhaust is cooler and wetter than wood smoke — it condenses inside clay liners, eats mortar from the inside, and carries carbon monoxide that must never find a crack to leak through. Converted systems need inspection like any other, and ventless or vented questions are ones we answer with the appliance manual and a CO meter, not opinions. Left alone for another season, it rarely stays the same size of problem. It is also the kind of problem that gets cheaper the earlier it is caught.
One more thing Landmark customers get on every ticket: a named technician, an arrival window we keep, and a written record of the work — the same standard on a cap install as on a full relining.

Year-Round in Landmark
A Year of Chimney Care in Landmark
Fall — the honest deadline
There is a reason Landmark regulars book their sweep in early fall: the work is identical in November, but the calendar is not. Same crew, same camera — just a slot that still exists.
Winter — burning season rules
Winter is when a marginal chimney in Landmark becomes an urgent one. If the fire suddenly burns lazy or the room smells of smoke, that is the flue asking for a scan, not another log.
Spring — damage assessment
Chimney swifts return to City of Alexandria in spring, and an uncapped flue in Landmark is prime nesting real estate. Spring is cap season — before the birds file their claim.
Summer — the smart repair window
Summer is the cheapest chimney season in Landmark: masonry cures properly in the warmth, relining and crown work book faster, and nobody is racing a cold house.

Customer Reviews

“Awesome service. The Eagle team was extremely thorough — probably spent 3-4 hours inspecting and cleaning our chimney. They replaced missing screws, added new seals on the stove door, caulked several areas, and explained everything. I highly recommend this company.”
FAQ
Chimney Questions in Landmark
How fast can a crew reach Landmark?
Landmark is about 20 miles from our Beltsville headquarters — typically a 50-minute drive in normal traffic. Regular appointments are batched into City of Alexandria route days several times a week, and emergency calls — chimney fires, smoke in the home, carbon-monoxide alarms — are dispatched 24/7 at (855) 424-6217.
We converted to gas logs years ago. Does the chimney still need service?
Yes. Gas appliances vent water vapor and carbon monoxide through that same flue, and the moisture attacks clay tiles and mortar from inside. Around Landmark we find converted flues with cracked liners and blocked caps that nobody has checked since the conversion. An annual inspection and a scan at conversion time are the standard practice — gas is cleaner, not maintenance-free.
Do you service gas fireplaces and log sets?
Yes — gas fireplaces, log sets and the flues above them. Gas systems still need their venting scanned and their caps checked; cooler gas exhaust condenses inside clay liners. If your Landmark system was converted from wood, the flue deserves one camera scan to establish its real condition. The written report you receive covers it either way.
Can you waterproof my chimney without changing how it looks?
Yes. We use vapor-permeable ChimneySaver waterproofing, which keeps liquid water out while letting the brick breathe — and it is invisible once cured, unlike film-forming sealers that blister and trap moisture. It is applied after any needed repointing, on sound brick across City of Alexandria. It is part of the standard checklist our crews run in Landmark.
What areas around Landmark do you also cover?
Our City of Alexandria routes cover the communities listed at the bottom of this page and the full map on the locations page — every community page shows its own ZIPs and distance from our Beltsville shop. On our next City of Alexandria route day we can show you yours on camera.
When is the best time of year to book in Landmark?
Late summer is the smart window across City of Alexandria: schedules are open, masonry repairs can cure before the cold, and you are not competing with the October rush. Emergency and safety work runs year-round — a cracked liner or a blocked flue should never wait for a convenient season.

Nearby Communities We Serve
Geography helps Landmark: Lincolnia is the next stop on most runs, with Bailey's Crossroads and Rose Hill close behind, so a crew is rarely more than a few miles away on route days. That density is also why emergency calls from Landmark get answered by a local truck instead of a call center. Measured from the center of Landmark, the nearest stops are Lincolnia (about 1 miles), Bailey's Crossroads (about 2) and Rose Hill (about 3) — straight-line distances, before the truck's actual route.
