Chimney Sweeping Process We set up large tarps to protect your floor and hearth, and use a high-powered vacuum to control dust. The chimney sweep will close the damper, then clean the chimney from the top and bottom with the properly sized brush to remove creosote. We will then visually inspect your chimney inside and out and provide a 21 point safety condition report.
What we look for during a chimney inspection
Some of the major safety concerns we look for are: missing mortar joints between the tile liner sections, cracked, blown out, or missing tile liners, condition of the bricks, mortar, crown, cap and damper condition.
Note: Chimney fires often occur without the homeowners' knowledge and you have hidden cracks or breaks inside the flue as a result. The chimney must be relined if damages such as this are found.
Annual cleaning and inspection is recommend. |
