Chimney Sweeping Services

Understand the Importance of Chimney Sweeping

If you love your fireplace, then regular sweeping is vital. At Advance Chimney, we can make sure your chimney is properly swept to ensure years of safe ongoing use of your fireplace.

Your chimney is the exhaust system for your fireplace. It allows carbon monoxide and other dangerous gases to escape without contaminating the air inside your home. As these fumes rise, they begin to solidify into a flammable substance known as creosote. This substance is the leading cause of chimney fires.

Your chimney may also accumulate debris in the off-season. This could include leaves, animals, or their nests. By cleaning out this debris, it's possible to reduce your risk of fire and promote better functionality.

At Advance Chimney, we know that many customers are concerned about cost. Fortunately, regular sweeping is relatively affordable. Sweeping a well-maintained chimney can cost $300 or less with regular cleaning. It's only expensive when the chimney is neglected. After years of buildup, it could cost $1,000.
