Why Is Now The Best Time To Call For Sweeping?

  • Spring and Summer is known as the off-season in the chimney industry. This is when people are less likely to use and think about their chimney. This means our schedules are much more flexible and open to best suit your needs.
  • Warm weather is the best time to perform repairs if they are needed, and with plenty of time until Fall, you can rest assured your chimney or fireplace will be ready to use when you need it most.

Reasons to invest in a chimney sweep with us:

  • To enjoy your system in its most efficient and safe state for a long time. A chimney sweeping cleans out all build up of dangerous substances.
  • Each fire you enjoy in your system can cause build up of highly flammable substances called creosote. This can cause major damage to your system if not removed such as chimney fires, gas leaks, and more.
  • Whether it’s your furnace, boiler, or hot water heater, we can sweep it all for your protection!
  • We have the proper equipment to thoroughly clean your system. Our licensed and certified sweeps are here to address all your chimney issues.

How Do We Sweep Chimneys?

We employ a variety of sweeping techniques to remove chimney deposits. The method chosen or recommended for your chimney will depend on the type of deposits and the type of chimney you have.

Standard Sweeping

This is the standard or basic sweeping process and involves the use of brushes to remove deposits on the chimney flue liner. A powerful high-speed, HEPA-filtered vacuum is used to prevent soot and creosote from entering the home. This type of sweeping/cleaning is effective for soot and ordinary creosote deposits, but has little effect on heavy, baked on, glazed, and tarry creosote deposits.

Mechanical Sweeping/Rokleen

Mechanical sweeping involves the use of wire brushes, plastic cables, or special chains rotated at a high speed by an electric motor. Mechanical sweeping is often employed to remove hard creosote or glazed creosote deposits.

Chemical Cleaning

Special chemicals may be used to loosen or dissolve heavy deposits of creosote and glaze. This can be used in conjunction with a mechanical cleaning.
