You light your fireplace without worrying about smoke backing up into your living room. No more wondering if creosote buildup is creating a fire hazard while your family sleeps.
Your chimney draws properly, your home stays warm, and you actually enjoy using your fireplace again. The lingering smell of smoke in your house disappears because everything’s working the way it should.
You stop losing sleep over whether your chimney is safe. When CSI certified professionals handle your chimney sweeping, you know the job meets national safety standards. Your insurance stays valid, your family stays protected, and your fireplace becomes something you look forward to using instead of something you worry about.
Certified Chimney Inspections has been serving Johnston homeowners since 2000. Our team of CSI certified technicians has been working together for over twenty years, so you’re not getting someone new learning on your chimney.
Every technician holds Chimney Safety Institute of America certification. That means we know current safety codes, proper cleaning techniques, and how to spot problems before they become expensive disasters.
You’re dealing with professionals who’ve seen every type of chimney issue Johnston homes can throw at us. From historic homes with original masonry to newer construction with modern systems, we know what works and what doesn’t in Rhode Island’s climate.
First, we protect your home with drop cloths and seal off the fireplace area so dust and debris stay contained. No mess in your living room.
The actual sweeping removes creosote buildup, soot, and any debris from your chimney liner and flue. We use professional brushes and vacuum systems designed specifically for chimney cleaning. Everything gets removed properly, not just pushed around.
After cleaning, we inspect the entire system. Damper operation, liner condition, crown integrity, cap functionality. You get a clear report on what’s working and what needs attention. No surprises, no upselling on things that don’t need fixing.
The whole process typically takes two to three hours depending on your chimney’s condition. You walk away knowing exactly what shape your chimney is in and when you’ll need service again.

Your chimney sweep includes complete flue cleaning, damper inspection, and safety assessment. We check for structural issues, water damage, and proper ventilation that most homeowners miss.
Johnston’s weather creates specific challenges for chimneys. Freeze-thaw cycles crack masonry, heavy rains find weak spots in crowns and caps, and humidity affects liner performance. We know what to look for in Rhode Island homes.
You also get honest answers about your system. If your chimney cap needs replacement, we’ll tell you. If your fireplace just needs a good cleaning, we won’t try to sell you services you don’t need. After two decades in business, we’ve learned that straightforward communication keeps customers happy and coming back.
