Frequently asked in Tallahassee
What is the average price to sweep a chimney?
How often does a chimney really need to be cleaned?
For most Tallahassee homes that use their fireplace regularly, an annual inspection and cleaning is recommended. If you only use it occasionally, every two years might suffice, but it's always safer to check. Creosote builds up faster with more frequent use. We can help you determine the right schedule for your usage.
How can I clean my chimney?
While DIY cleaning is possible for some very basic tasks, it's generally not recommended for a thorough job. Professional sweeps have specialized tools and knowledge to remove creosote and inspect for damage. Trying to clean it yourself can be messy and potentially dangerous if you miss something important. Let the pros handle it.
What are the signs of a dirty chimney?
Look for a strong smoky smell when the fireplace isn't in use, soot falling down the chimney, or difficulty getting a fire to draw properly. You might also see black or brown deposits (creosote) on the inside walls of your chimney liner. These are clear indicators it's time for a cleaning.
