What is chimney sweep?
A chimney sweep is the physical removal of soot, creosote, and combustion debris from your flue, smoke chamber, and firebox. The NFPA recommends a sweep once 1/8" of creosote has accumulated — typically once per heating season for active wood-burning fireplaces. We use HEPA-filter vacuums and full drop-cloth protection so your home stays clean.
