What’s included

Every chimney visit

Chimney sweeping

The full flue, smoke chamber and firebox, swept of soot and creosote so the chimney draws properly — and we show you the debris we pulled out before it leaves the property.

Chimney inspection

Camera-assisted Level 1 and Level 2 inspections with photos and a written condition report. The Level 1 inspection — firebox, damper, flue and exterior — is a flat $89.

Chimney cleaning

Interior cleaning of the firebox, smoke shelf and damper with HEPA containment — no dust in the room.

Chimney repair

Crown rebuilds, tuckpointing and firebox repair, plus caps and chase covers. Repairs are quoted in writing from the inspection and approved by you before any work starts.

Do you need this?

Signs your chimney is overdue

  • A heating season or more since the last sweep
  • Shiny, glazed creosote visible on the flue walls
  • Smoke rolling back into the room when the fire is lit
  • A campfire smell from the fireplace in the middle of summer
  • White staining on the brick, or a cracked chimney crown
  • Rust on the damper or firebox, or debris collecting below
Our process

How the visit actually runs

A typical combined sweep and inspection visit takes about two hours. It starts with the camera, not the brush.

01

Inspection & photos first

The camera documents the firebox, damper, flue and exterior before a brush comes out. You see the findings themselves, not a summary of them.

02

Sweep under containment

The flue, smoke chamber and firebox are swept under HEPA containment, so the soot and creosote come out of the chimney — not into your room.

03

Camera verification

The camera runs the flue again after the sweep, so the before-and-after record shows the creosote is actually gone.

04

Written report

You get the photos and a written condition report: what we found, what we did, and anything worth watching — with a firm written price if a repair is needed.

Pricing

The inspection is $89. Everything else is quoted in writing.

The Level 1 inspection is a flat $89 — firebox, damper, flue and exterior, with photos and a written report included. If the chimney needs a sweep or a repair, we price it on site from the inspection, in writing, and nothing starts until you approve it. Replacement parts are quoted separately, the same way. That is the whole policy.

Questions & answers

Chimney sweeping, asked and answered

How much does a chimney inspection cost?

The Level 1 inspection is a flat $89. It is a camera-assisted check of the firebox, damper, flue and exterior, and it includes photos and a written condition report. If the findings call for a Level 2 camera inspection or a repair, that is priced in writing from what we found — before any work begins.

How often should a chimney be swept?

Once per heating season for regular use. The trigger we actually measure is creosote: at about an eighth of an inch of buildup a sweep is due, and glazed creosote past a quarter inch is effectively fuel sitting inside the flue.

What is the difference between a sweep and an inspection?

A sweep is the cleaning: soot and creosote removed from the flue, smoke chamber and firebox. An inspection is the condition check: camera, photos and a written report on the firebox, damper, flue and exterior. Most visits combine both, and a combined visit typically takes about two hours.

Do you service gas fireplaces too?

Yes. Fireplace service for gas and wood-burning fireplaces is a flat service rate covering diagnostics, repair, deep cleaning and inspection. Replacement parts, if a repair needs them, are priced and quoted separately.

Will a sweep make a mess in the house?

No. The work runs under HEPA containment, floors are covered, and the debris we remove is shown to you and taken away. The room is left as clean as we found it.

Do you clean air ducts as well?

Yes — air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning are the other half of PUREVENT, and chimney and duct work is often booked in the same visit.
