About Empire Chimney Solutions

The Trusted Chimney Experts

One quiet evening, Justin and Maegan sat together by their wood-burning fireplace with coffee in hand, talking about the next chapter of their lives. Justin was looking forward to his next season after serving as a Sergeant with the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, and together they began imagining a future beyond retirement. Sitting and talking together in their living-room, they realized a real need in the North Alabama market for reliable, high-quality chimney services. That simple insight sparked an idea, and from that idea Empire Chimney Solutions was born.

Justin discovered early on that homeowners were often left confused or overwhelmed by the condition of their chimneys. Reports were unclear, recommendations varied wildly, and reliable, safety-focused service was hard to find. Seeing this gap, he made it his mission to become highly skilled in chimney inspections, sweeping, and repairs. Justin is CSIA certified, hardworking for his family, takes pride in training and working alongside the ECS technician team, and has built a reputation for accuracy, integrity, and craftsmanship.

While Justin focuses on the hands-on work and technical expertise, Maegan places the majority of her energy behind the scenes, shaping the foundation of Empire Chimney Solutions. She dedicates herself to ensuring the company’s image and message resonated with customers through branding, design, marketing, and effective business scaling. Together, Justin and Maegan combine their strengths and share the same belief that homeowners deserve clarity, safety, and honest solutions. They are rooted in love and respect for one another, their family, and bring unmatched care to every family they serve. What started as a small, determined dream has grown into Empire Chimney Solutions—a fully certified, insured, and customer-focused company committed to protecting families and homes across the region.

Their mission is simple. To provide exceptional service, educate homeowners, and set a new standard in the chimney industry. Every day, you will find them continuing to lead ECS with the same core values they started with: integrity, excellence, and the belief that hard work done the right way builds an empire that lasts.
