Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 22, 2016
“Richard made repairs to our 50 year old fireplace and chimney to bring it up to code. He inspected for cracks, cleared the flue, added a new spark arrester, repaired the top few courses of bricks and ordered a new cradle for the wood. He got everything ship shape and safe and we had an enjoyable winter! He is a pleasure to deal with and knows his craft inside and out.”

Chimney Sweep or Cleaner FAQs
Annual cleaning and inspection are recommended for regularly used fireplaces. Schedule immediate inspection if you notice slow-burning fires, smoke problems, or visible creosote buildup.
Look for CSIA certification and state/local licensing. CSIA certification indicates the professional has passed testing on fire safety, inspection techniques, and proper cleaning methods.
A standard inspection examines the interior and exterior structure, flue liner, connections, basic soundness of the chimney structure, and checks for obstructions or combustible deposits.
Watch for: white staining on exterior brick (efflorescence), smoky odors, poor drafting, visible cracks, pieces of tile in the fireplace, or difficulty starting fires.
Basic cleaning services usually range from $150-$350. Inspections typically cost $100-$250. Major repairs like liner replacement can range from $2,500-$7,000.
