Gas and oil systems need a sweep once a year; wood-burning fireplaces in heavy use need one as often as quarterly. We’ll give you a personalized schedule after your first inspection.

No. We take the greatest care to ensure all soot and dust is contained — drop cloths, a HEPA vacuum, and a final walk-through on every job.

It depends on the system and the work it needs, so we inspect first and quote second — that’s how the quote stays accurate. Financing with 0% interest is available.

Most insurance companies won’t cover chimney-fire claims unless the chimney was swept by trained professionals — and a professional visit doubles as a structural check of the whole system.

It can be. Every fire releases gases that condense into creosote — a combustible residue. When your chimney lining is coated in it, you run the risk of a house fire. Regular sweeping removes the hazard.

The firebox is where the fire burns; the flue is the duct that vents smoke out (and where dangerous buildup collects); the damper is the plate that controls airflow; the cap keeps rain and animals out; and creosote is the combustible byproduct of burning wood that professional sweeps remove.
