About this service

A chimney sweep is a professional who removes the flammable byproduct known as creosote from your chimney liner.

You should have a sweep come out if you use your fireplace frequently or if you notice your fires are not burning as brightly as they used to. Regular cleaning is the best way to maintain a safe fireplace environment.
