What affects the price

The final price for your chimney service depends on a few specific things we look at once we get started. How long it has been since your last cleaning is a big factor, as more buildup requires more intensive work to clear out safely. The height of your chimney, how easily we can access the roof, and the overall design of your fireplace system also play roles in the effort required. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

A chimney sweep uses specialized brushes, vacuums, and inspection cameras to scrub the inside of your chimney flue. This process clears out flammable creosote and nesting materials left by birds or squirrels. You need this service if you use your fireplace regularly or if it has been over a year since your last inspection. Regular sweeps keep your home safe from chimney fires and ensure that dangerous gases are effectively carried away from your living space.

Frequently asked in Atlanta

What is the average price to sweep a chimney?

How often does a chimney really need to be cleaned?

In Atlanta, it's generally recommended to have your chimney inspected annually and swept as needed, typically once a year. Heavy usage, especially during the cooler months when fireplaces are a cozy focal point in homes across the city, will dictate more frequent cleaning. Too much creosote buildup can lead to dangerous chimney fires.

How can I clean my chimney?

While some minor DIY cleaning is possible, it's best left to the pros for a thorough and safe job. They have the specialized tools and knowledge to remove stubborn creosote and inspect for structural integrity, which is crucial for homes in areas like Sandy Springs. Trying to do it yourself could miss vital issues or even cause damage.

What are the signs of a dirty chimney?

Look for visible soot or creosote buildup inside your chimney, or a strong smoky smell when you use your fireplace. You might also notice faster-than-usual creosote accumulation on your damper or flue. If you're seeing these signs in your Atlanta home, it's time for a professional cleaning.
