About Us

Who We Are

Chimcare began in 1989 as a one-man chimney operation in Canby, Oregon, founded by Richard Peralta. His son, Jesse Peralta, later took over the business and set out to build it into something bigger: a company that grew from Jesse’s garage into its own offices and showroom, and from one Oregon town into 20 states across the USA.

More than 30 years on, the work is the same. We deliver top-quality chimney inspection, maintenance, and repair for residential and commercial properties. Our technicians are certified by the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) and keep that certification through continuing education every year, and we invest in advanced equipment so every job is done right. Whether it’s a routine inspection, a necessary repair, or a full system restoration, our team keeps your chimney and venting systems running safely and efficiently.
