Why Regular Chimney Inspections and Sweeping Matter
Your chimney is more than a cozy feature—it’s a working ventilation system that needs regular care. Over time, creosote and soot can build up inside the flue, increasing the risk of chimney fires, while debris or nesting can restrict airflow and cause smoke or carbon monoxide to backdraft into your home. A professional chimney sweep and inspection helps prevent costly damage, improves airflow, and keeps your fireplace running clean and efficiently.

Frequently asked questions
How often should I have my chimney swept?
You should have your chimney swept at least once a year, especially if you use your fireplace regularly. Annual chimney sweeping helps prevent dangerous creosote buildup, ensures efficient operation, and keeps your home safe from potential chimney fires. If you use your fireplace more frequently, you may need more frequent cleanings.
What happens during a chimney inspection?
During a chimney inspection, we check your chimney's overall condition, looking for creosote buildup, blockages, cracks, or any structural damage. We also inspect the chimney liner, flue, and other components to ensure they're safe to use. This inspection helps catch issues early, preventing costly repairs and keeping your chimney running smoothly.
Why is it important to sweep both the flue and the firebox?
Sweeping both the flue and firebox is essential because it removes creosote and soot buildup, which are highly flammable and can cause chimney fires. Cleaning the firebox also ensures your fireplace burns more efficiently and prevents harmful gases from entering your home. A thorough sweep keeps your fireplace safe and efficient.
