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.
