How we keep chimney cleaning tidy and clear

Approving the cleaning after your free inspection

The inspection that starts a sweep costs you nothing. It gives you the estimate and a chance to ask about each line before any brush goes up. Take the time you need to read it, and ask about anything that is unclear.

Where you give the go-ahead no later than 72 hours after that free inspection, the sweep carries a 10% discount. The hours run from your own inspection. It applies to the cleaning and to any other service you book inside that time.

If you suspect a fire inside the flue

A loud roar from the chimney, sparks falling from the top or dense smoke pouring into the room can mean the deposits have caught fire. Get everyone out of the house at once. From outside, call 911 and wait for the fire department. Stay out, and do not go back in for belongings.

Once responders have finished, leave the fireplace unused. Heat from a flue fire can crack tiles and mortar in places no one can see from the room. A cleaning and a closer look at the lining should come before any further fire.

Access points on a factory-built chimney

Some factory-built chimneys run through a framed enclosure on an outside wall. Listed chimney instructions describe an access door near a tee fitting in that enclosure, used for cleaning. Where one exists, it lets debris be removed from the base of the flue.

Tell us if you have seen a small panel on the enclosure or inside a closet near the fireplace. We open it only as the manual describes and close it as we found it. If no access was provided, cleaning follows the route the manual allows.

Carbon monoxide and a blocked flue

A flue blocked by debris or a nest can send combustion gases back into the house instead of up the chimney. Carbon monoxide has no smell or color, which is why an alarm that detects it belongs in any home where fuel is burned.

If a CO alarm sounds, do not search for the source. Leave the house with everyone inside and call 911 once you are outdoors. CPSC guidance says to stay out until emergency responders say it is safe to go back in.

What is and is not part of the sweep

  • Firebox walls, floor and grate area
  • Ash removal and bagged debris
  • Identification of each flue and opening
  • Walk-through of results at the hearth

Chimney sweep visit questions answered

Is the cap screen cleaned as part of the sweep?

Yes, when the top can be reached safely. We brush the mesh and clear the opening. A torn, rusted or loose screen is noted and priced as a separate repair rather than patched without your approval.

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.

What should I tell you when booking a chimney sweep?

Give us the number of fireplaces and which ones you use. Add any manual or model label, recent smoke or smell, and access notes for the roof or gate. Anything you do not know, we find out during the free inspection.
