Chimney Sweep Process Tuckerton

Here's Exactly What We Do

We start by protecting your home with drop cloths and setting up our HEPA vacuum system. No dust, no mess in your living space.

Then we inspect your chimney from top to bottom using advanced equipment, including video cameras when needed. We’re looking for creosote buildup, structural issues, blockages, and anything that could cause problems.

The actual sweeping removes all soot and creosote deposits using professional brushes and tools. We clean the damper, smoke shelf, and firebox thoroughly. Finally, we show you what we found and explain any issues that need attention.

How often should I have my chimney swept in Tuckerton?

The National Fire Protection Association recommends annual chimney sweeping for most homes. If you use your fireplace regularly throughout the winter, you definitely need yearly service.Even if you only use your fireplace occasionally, annual inspection is still important. Tuckerton’s coastal location means salt air and moisture can cause deterioration even when the chimney isn’t used frequently.We typically recommend scheduling your chimney sweeping in late summer or early fall, before you start using your fireplace for the season.

What's the difference between chimney sweeping and chimney inspection?

Chimney sweeping is the physical cleaning process that removes soot, creosote, and debris from your chimney. Inspection is the detailed examination of your chimney’s condition and safety.At Apex, every chimney sweeping includes a thorough inspection at no extra charge. We’re not just cleaning your chimney – we’re making sure it’s safe to use.Many companies charge separately for inspection, but we believe you can’t properly clean a chimney without understanding its condition first. That’s why our triple certification matters.

Can I clean my own chimney to save money?

We don’t recommend DIY chimney cleaning for several important reasons. First, soot and creosote are carcinogenic materials that require proper safety equipment and disposal methods.Second, inexperienced cleaning often misses dangerous creosote deposits in hard-to-reach areas. Missing these spots leaves you vulnerable to chimney fires.Third, proper chimney cleaning requires specialized brushes, vacuum systems, and knowledge of chimney construction. Most homeowners don’t have the right tools or training to do the job safely and effectively.

Do you clean gas fireplace chimneys too?
