Chimney Cleaning Process Jamestown

Here's Exactly What Happens During Your Service

First, we protect your home with drop cloths and set up containment around your fireplace. No mess left behind is non-negotiable.

Next comes the inspection. We check your chimney from top to bottom before we start cleaning because you need to know about any structural issues, damaged flue liners, or cap problems before they get worse.

Then we clean. Professional brushes, proper techniques, and industrial vacuum systems that capture debris instead of spreading it around your house. We remove creosote buildup, animal nests, leaves, and anything else that doesn’t belong in your chimney.

Finally, we document everything. You get a clear report of what we found, what we cleaned, and any recommendations for future maintenance or repairs.

Complete Chimney Sweep Services

More Than Cleaning, Complete Chimney Care

Your chimney sweep includes thorough cleaning of the entire flue system, damper inspection and cleaning, smoke chamber cleaning, and firebox cleaning. We also check your chimney cap, screen, and flashing while we’re up there.

Jamestown’s coastal weather is tough on chimneys. Salt air accelerates metal corrosion, and our wet winters create freeze-thaw cycles that crack masonry. We know what to look for because we’ve been dealing with these specific challenges for over twenty years.

You also get our retail expertise. We run a stove store, so we understand how different fireplace systems work and what maintenance they actually need. That means honest recommendations based on your specific setup, not generic advice that might not apply to your situation.

How often should I have my chimney swept and cleaned?

The National Fire Protection Association recommends annual chimney inspections, with cleaning as needed based on usage. If you burn wood regularly, you’ll likely need cleaning every year. Gas fireplaces need less frequent cleaning but still require annual safety inspections. The key is understanding that inspection and cleaning aren’t the same thing – you need the inspection to determine if cleaning is necessary. Skipping annual checkups is where homeowners get into trouble, because small problems become expensive repairs when they’re ignored.
Chimney cleaning costs depend on your specific situation – the type of fireplace, how much buildup we find, accessibility, and what additional services you need. We provide free estimates because every chimney is different, and cookie-cutter pricing doesn’t serve anyone well. Most homeowners find our pricing fair when they understand what’s included: thorough cleaning, complete inspection, documentation, and recommendations from certified professionals. We also offer in-house financing if you need additional services beyond basic cleaning.
Visible signs include white staining on the outside of your chimney, rust on the damper or firebox, damaged chimney crown, or animals and birds in your chimney. Inside, you might notice strong odors, poor draft, or smoke entering your room instead of going up the chimney. But here’s the thing – by the time you notice these problems, you’re already behind on maintenance. Professional inspection catches issues before they become obvious, which is why annual checkups matter more than waiting for warning signs.
Yes, our technicians are CSI certified through the Chimney Safety Institute of America, and we carry full insurance coverage. CSI certification means ongoing education, updated safety training, and accountability to national standards. It’s not just a piece of paper – it’s proof that we stay current with industry best practices and safety protocols. We’re also happy to provide proof of insurance before starting work. In this business, certification and insurance aren’t optional extras, they’re basic requirements that protect both you and us.
Not when it’s done right. We use drop cloths, containment systems, and industrial vacuum equipment specifically designed for chimney cleaning. Our process contains debris and soot instead of spreading it around your home. Professional chimney sweeps know how to work clean – it’s part of the job. If someone tells you chimney cleaning is inherently messy, they’re either inexperienced or cutting corners on proper containment procedures. You shouldn’t have to deep clean your house after we leave.
Absolutely. Gas fireplaces still need regular cleaning and inspection, just not as frequently as wood-burning systems. Gas burns cleaner than wood, but you still get dust, debris, spider webs, and sometimes animal nests in the chimney. More importantly, gas appliances need safety inspections to check for proper venting, gas leaks, and carbon monoxide issues. We clean and inspect all types of fireplace systems – wood, gas, pellet stoves, and combination units. Each type has specific requirements, and we adjust our process accordingly.
