Chimney cleaning in Boston is an extremely important task. Many people don’t understand the risks they are taking when they use their chimney without regularly cleaning it. When you burn a wood fire in your fireplace, the smoke that rises up into the chimney has substances in it such as creosote and other particulate matter which sticks to the inside of the chimney. The hazard is that these substances are flammable and if a rising ember attaches to one of these substances it could start a chimney fire, which could destroy your entire home.
