Soot removal and findings, kept separate
Brushing the flue walls along their length
The flue is the passage that carries smoke out of the house, and most of the soot sits on its walls. Rods and a brush sized to the flue are run through the full length that can be reached. The brush has to fit closely enough to scrape the walls without jamming at joints or bends.
A round flue and a rectangular one need different brush shapes. A metal liner calls for a brush that will not scratch its surface, as listed chimney instructions note. We choose the brush after identifying the lining, not before, and explain the choice if you ask.
What a sweep leaves for other visits
A sweep removes deposits and debris from the parts it can reach. It does not repair tile, mortar, dampers, caps or the chimney top. It also does not confirm the condition of concealed parts.
Keeping those tasks apart keeps the cleaning price honest and your choices clear. It also means a clean flue is not mistaken for a repaired one. When the cleaning reveals a repair, you get the facts and a separate estimate, then decide at your own pace. The written record shows exactly what the cleaning covered.
Booking a sweep and an inspection together
Some households want the flue cleaned and the whole chimney evaluated on the same visit. The two can be combined, with the cleaning done ahead of the evaluation so the lining is visible. The estimate then prices the cleaning and the evaluation on separate lines.
Tell us the reason for the wider look, such as a change in how the fireplace performs or plans to use it more. That purpose shapes what is examined. The written record keeps the cleaning results and the evaluation findings apart.
When the cleaning scope changes partway through
Sometimes the flue holds more than the free inspection could show. A hidden blockage or a glazed layer above the reach of a light are examples. When that happens, we stop and explain what changed before going further.
You then choose whether to add the new item, leave it for later or stop the cleaning where it is. The estimate is updated in writing before any added work begins. Nothing new appears on the bill that you did not agree to.

What people ask before a flue cleaning
Do I need to be home for the whole cleaning?
Someone should be there to let us in, confirm the scope and hear the results. In between, you can step out if we can reach you by phone. Any new item waits for your answer rather than being added.
Why do you look at the flue after it is brushed?
Soot hides the surface. Once it is off, cracks, gaps and damaged parts are easier to see. That visual check is limited to what the brushes reached, and anything it raises is explained separately.
Is the cleaning covered by your workmanship warranty?
Yes. The warranty covers the work we did, which the written record describes. If something we handled does not work as it should afterward, tell us and we come back to look at it.
