🚩 What Are Signs I Need a Chimney Sweeping?
Not sure if your chimney needs attention? Look out for:
- Strong smoke or burning odors—even when not in use
- Soot falling into the fireplace
- Difficulty getting fires to burn or draft properly
- Creosote buildup (black, sticky residue)
- It’s been over a year since your last inspection or cleaning
Clean chimneys = safer homes.
We recommend that homeowners have their chimney inspected and swept annually to determine whether or not it needs repairs or further servicing. Call us today to schedule, or you can book online through our website.
🔥 How Do Chimney Fires Happen? How Do I Prevent Them?
The leading cause of chimney fires is creosote, which is a flammable byproduct of burning wood that sticks to the inside of your chimney.
Creosote buildup happens faster when:
- Wood is not fully seasoned
- The chimney isn’t drafting well
- You burn fires at low temperatures
- Your stove or fireplace isn’t installed correctly
Our certified technicians can spot the warning signs early—before it becomes dangerous.
🪧 What Are the Signs of a Chimney Fire?
Not all chimney fires are immediately obvious. In fact, many go on using their fireplace unaware that these often quiet and slow-moving events have occurred at all.
Any of the following could be signs that your chimney is catching fire or has in the past:
- A loud cracking and popping noise
- Dense smoke
- An intense burning smell
- Honeycombed creosote
- Flue/masonry damage
- Discolored or warped chimney cap
Remember that clean chimneys don’t catch fire. Have a certified chimney sweep inspect your solid fuel venting system annually and clean and repair it, when needed. Fires caused by dirty chimneys are all fires that could have been prevented.
❗What Happens if I Skip My Annual Chimney Sweeping?
Regular chimney inspections help prevent:
- House fires caused by flue or creosote issues
- Dangerous carbon monoxide leaks
- Costly structural damage from water intrusion
- Draft problems that affect fireplace performance
Peace of mind comes from knowing your chimney system is functioning as safely as possible and ready to use.
🌪️ Is Chimney Sweeping Messy?
If your sweep is using proper equipment and follows industry best practices, you shouldn’t see any residue, staining, or dust left behind. In fact, when done right, most homeowners can’t even tell the chimney sweep was there, aside from the fact that their chimney is now cleaner and functioning as safely as possible!
Certified chimney sweeps (like us) use specialized tools and high-powered vacuums to contain dust and debris. Protective drop cloths are laid down, and the work area is carefully sealed off to ensure no mess enters your home.
