Chimney Sweeping Process Long Hill

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we protect your home with drop cloths and seal off your fireplace to contain any debris. No mess in your living room.

Then we inspect your entire system from top to bottom – flue, damper, firebox, and chimney crown. We’re looking for cracks, blockages, animal nests, or creosote buildup that could cause problems.

Next comes the actual cleaning using professional-grade brushes and EPA-approved products. We remove all soot, creosote, and debris from your flue and firebox. Our equipment captures everything so nothing ends up in your home.

Finally, we test your damper operation and provide a detailed report of our findings. If we spot any issues, we’ll explain them in plain English and give you options. No pressure, just honest recommendations from certified professionals.

How often should I have my chimney swept in Long Hill?

The National Fire Protection Association recommends annual chimney cleaning and inspection for most homeowners. But your actual needs depend on how much you use your fireplace.If you burn more than a cord of wood per year, you might need cleaning twice annually. Gas fireplaces need less frequent cleaning but still require annual inspections for safety. The key is creosote buildup – it’s highly flammable and accumulates every time you burn wood.Long Hill’s climate means most homeowners use their fireplaces regularly during winter months. We typically recommend scheduling your cleaning in early fall before the heating season begins. That way, you’re ready when the first cold snap hits.
