It's generally recommended to have your chimney swept at least once a year, especially if you use your fireplace regularly. Regular sweeping removes soot, debris, and creosote buildup, which can be hazardous if left unchecked. Annual maintenance ensures that your chimney operates safely and efficiently.
Common signs that your chimney may need repair include visible cracks in the bricks or mortar, water leaks around the chimney, a rusted chimney cap, or smoke not venting properly. If you notice any of these issues, it's important to contact a professional for an inspection and necessary repairs to prevent further damage and potential safety hazards.
No, it's not safe to use your fireplace if animals have entered your chimney. Birds, squirrels, and other animals can cause blockages that prevent smoke from escaping, increasing the risk of carbon monoxide buildup. Our chimney animal removal service safely and humanely removes these intruders, allowing you to use your fireplace safely again.
Creosote is a highly flammable substance that accumulates inside your chimney as a result of burning wood. If it builds up too much, it can ignite and cause a dangerous chimney fire. Regular creosote removal reduces this risk and ensures that your chimney is safe to use. It's an essential part of chimney maintenance for any wood-burning fireplace.
To prevent water leaks, it's important to ensure that your chimney has a properly installed cap, that the crown is sealed, and that the flashing around the base of the chimney is in good condition. Regular inspections and maintenance can catch potential issues early and prevent costly water damage. Our services, including cap installation, crown seal, and flashing seal, are designed to keep your chimney watertight.
