Your fireplace should be a source of comfort, not worry. When your chimney is properly cleaned and maintained, you get consistent airflow that keeps smoke where it belongs—up and out, not in your living room.
A thorough chimney sweep removes the creosote buildup that causes house fires. It clears blockages that lead to carbon monoxide problems. Most importantly, it gives you confidence that your family is safe every time you light a fire.
You’ll notice the difference immediately. Better draft means easier lighting and cleaner burning. No more smoke rolling into the room when you open the damper. Just the warmth and ambiance you want from your fireplace, without the hazards that come from neglected maintenance.
Certified Chimney Inspections has been serving Westerly homeowners since 2000, with the same experienced team you can count on. We were formally established in 2016, but our expertise goes back over two decades.
Every technician is CSI (Chimney Safety Institute of America) certified. This isn’t just a piece of paper—it means we understand chimney systems, safety protocols, and proper cleaning techniques that protect your home and family.
You’ll find our team listed on the website under “Meet the Team” because transparency matters. When someone is working on your home’s safety systems, you should know exactly who we are and what qualifies us to do the job right.
The process starts with a free estimate where we assess your chimney’s condition and explain exactly what needs to be done. No surprises, no pressure tactics—just straightforward information so you can make an informed decision.
During the actual cleaning, our certified technicians use professional equipment to remove creosote buildup, clear debris, and inspect for any structural issues. We protect your home with drop cloths and use industrial vacuums to contain dust and debris.
After the sweep, you get a clear explanation of what was found and any recommendations for maintenance or repairs. If additional work is needed, we offer in-house financing to make it manageable. The goal is a safe, functional chimney that serves your family well for years to come.

Westerly’s coastal climate can be tough on chimneys, with salt air and moisture creating unique challenges. We understand these local conditions and adjust our approach accordingly, using techniques and materials that hold up to Rhode Island’s weather patterns.
