Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I have my chimney serviced?

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends having your chimney inspected at least once a year. Depending on how often you use your fireplace, sweeping and repairs should be done as needed to ensure safer, more efficient operation.

Which chimney services are recommended annually?

Annual maintenance requires a professional inspection to check for damage, leaks, or blockages. If buildup is found, your chimney needs sweeping to remove dangerous creosote. We also ensure caps, crowns, and masonry are in good condition.

What happens if I skip my annual chimney service?

Neglecting your chimney leads to highly flammable creosote buildup, drastically increasing your risk of a chimney fire. It can also cause blockages that force deadly carbon monoxide into your home – and minor issues can quickly turn into expensive repairs.

What should I expect during a chimney service appointment?

Expect a thorough, mess-free process. We inspect the chimney’s interior and exterior for damage, sweep away creosote using specialized vacuums and brushes, and provide a detailed condition report outlining any necessary repairs to protect your home.

Chimney inspections are a vital part of annual chimney services.
