Chimney Sweeping Process

Here's How We Clean Your Chimney

First, we inspect your chimney and fireplace system to identify any issues before we start cleaning. You’ll know exactly what we found and what needs attention—no surprises halfway through the job.

Then comes the actual sweeping. We use professional equipment to remove creosote, soot, and debris from your chimney liner and flue. We protect your home with drop cloths and containment systems, so you’re not dealing with mess throughout your house.

Finally, we do a post-cleaning inspection to make sure everything is clear and safe to use. You get a clear explanation of what was done, any recommendations for maintenance, and honest answers to your questions about your chimney’s condition.

How often should I have my chimney swept in Narragansett Pier?

Most homeowners need chimney cleaning once a year if you use your fireplace regularly during winter months. If you burn more than a cord of wood per season, you might need it twice yearly. The coastal environment here in Narragansett Pier can also accelerate some wear issues, so annual inspection is smart even if you don’t use your fireplace often. The National Fire Protection Association recommends annual inspection regardless of usage, and that’s especially important in older homes common in this area.
Basic chimney cleaning typically runs $200-400 depending on your chimney’s condition and accessibility. However, if we find issues during inspection—like damaged flue liner, cap problems, or structural concerns—those repairs are separate. That’s why we provide free estimates upfront and explain exactly what’s included. We don’t surprise you with extra charges for “unexpected” problems that any experienced technician should spot during the initial assessment. In-house financing is available for larger repair projects.
White staining on your chimney exterior, rust on the damper or firebox, and smoke entering your room instead of going up the flue are obvious signs. You might also notice animals or birds in your chimney, or a strong odor coming from your fireplace even when it’s not in use. But honestly, if it’s been more than a year since your last cleaning, or if you’re not sure when it was last done, it’s time. Waiting for obvious problems usually means you’re past due for maintenance.
Yes, we handle wood-burning fireplaces, gas fireplaces, pellet stoves, and wood stoves. Each type requires different cleaning approaches and safety considerations. We’re also experienced with the older masonry chimneys common in Narragansett Pier homes, as well as newer metal flue systems. If you have a fireplace insert, prefab fireplace, or specialty stove, we can handle that too. Our retail store means we’re familiar with most brands and models you’ll find in Rhode Island homes.
Not when it’s done properly. We use drop cloths, plastic sheeting, and professional containment systems to protect your floors, furniture, and belongings. Modern chimney cleaning equipment includes vacuum systems that capture debris as we work, rather than letting it fall into your fireplace and potentially blow into your room. You might see some dust, but you shouldn’t have soot covering your furniture or tracking through your house. That’s the difference between professional service and corner-cutting.
Yes, we handle everything from minor repairs to complete fireplace restoration. Common issues like damaged chimney caps, cracked flue liners, or damper problems can often be fixed the same day. Larger projects like chimney rebuilding or stove installation can be scheduled separately. Since we’ve been doing this work for over twenty years, we stock common parts and have the experience to handle most problems without needing to bring in other contractors. We’ll give you honest recommendations about what needs immediate attention versus what can be planned for later.
