Flue cleaning and what it leaves you with

Using a cleanout opening at the flue base

Some masonry chimneys include a small cleanout door near the base of a flue. The Florida Building Code's chimney chapter calls for one at the base of each masonry flue. The exception is a fireplace flue that can be cleaned through the fireplace opening. If your chimney has one, it gives access to debris that settles at the bottom of that flue.

Tell us if you know of a small metal access door on the chimney, inside or outside the house. We open it, remove what has collected and close it firmly so it seals. A door that is rusted shut or missing its latch is recorded as a separate repair.

The workmanship warranty on cleaning work

Cleaning is work like any other, and it is backed by our workmanship warranty. The written record says what we did, and the warranty applies to that work. Keep it with your other fireplace papers.

Suppose a part we handled, such as a damper we freed or a cap we refitted, does not work as it did before. Tell us promptly, and we look at it again under the warranty. Conditions we recorded but were not asked to repair are not part of that promise, which is why the record separates them.

Where residue collects in the flue

Deposits are not spread evenly. They tend to gather where smoke cools and slows. That can be the upper part of a flue on an outside wall, the smoke chamber or a bend. Listed metal chimney instructions note that residue condenses in a relatively cool flue.

That is why the whole reachable length is brushed, not only the part visible from the firebox. When we describe the result, we say where the heaviest material was. It hints at where your flue runs coolest and where to look first next time.

Cleaning around a damper at the flue top

Some chimneys are fitted with a top-mounted damper, worked by a cable that hangs down into the fireplace. Its plate and gasket gather soot, and a dirty gasket may not seal. The cable and its bracket also need to move freely.

During a sweep we clean the plate and gasket where they can be reached and work the cable through its range. A torn gasket, a stretched cable or a weak spring is noted as a separate repair. The damper's own instructions guide what we touch.

Chimney sweep visit questions answered

Can you clean more than one fireplace on the same visit?

Yes. Tell us about each one when you book so the estimate lists every flue and opening. Each fireplace is its own line, and you choose which ones to include.

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.

What if a repair is needed before I can use the fireplace?

We tell you directly and write it on the record. The repair gets its own estimate, and you decide when to go ahead. Until it is done, we suggest keeping the fireplace unused.
