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
Combining cleaning and repair is an efficient way to maintain your hearth. The technician brushes the chimney liner to clear out blockages and inspects the firebox for gaps or wear. If they find damaged tiles or mortar, they can address those spots immediately. You should look for this service if you are preparing your fireplace for winter use or if you suspect your chimney system isn't drafting air as well as it used to during regular operation.
