How often should I have my chimney swept?

The National Fire Protection Association says, “Chimneys, fireplaces, and vents shall be inspected at least once a year for soundness, freedom from deposits, and correct clearances.” Abiding by this national safety standard is the best way to keep your chimney in great shape. Even if you don’t use your fireplace regularly, an annual inspection is still advised. Animals can build nests, and there can be other deterioration that makes your chimney unsafe to use. During these inspections, our technicians can identify and fix any problems that are affecting your chimneys performance.

If you haven’t had your chimney checked in over a year or if you are having performance issues with your chimney don’t wait to give us a call. Waiting almost always results in additional repairs.
