About This Service
Separate Cleaning From Repair
Sweeping removes deposits within the agreed scope. It does not make a broken component sound. If damage is identified, we explain its role and the proposed repair separately, so the cleaning request does not become permission for unrelated work.
Cleaning for a Connected Stove
A wood stove and its connection need consideration as part of the service plan. Tell us the make and model if available and leave the installation intact. The appropriate maintenance follows the system's instructions rather than assuming every chimney is accessed like an open fireplace.
Understand an Odor Complaint
A smell may change with use, moisture or airflow, and accessible deposits may be only part of the concern. Tell us when it occurs. We explain what cleaning addresses and whether another assessment is needed rather than promise one sweep eliminates every odor.
Cleaning After a Repair
If a chimney repair is already planned, discuss how cleaning relates to the work and intended use. The tasks should have separate scopes and an explained sequence. Completing one does not automatically establish that the other is unnecessary or included.
