While some DIY is possible, it's risky. Chimney sweeping requires special tools and knowledge. Missed buildup can be dangerous. Professional sweeps ensure a thorough job for your Massachusetts home.
For most Massachusetts homes, once a year is recommended. If you use your fireplace often, you might need it sooner. Regular cleaning prevents dangerous creosote buildup and ensures your chimney is safe.
The best time is usually before the cold season starts. This ensures your chimney is ready for use. In Massachusetts, this often means late fall. It's also good to clean after a chimney fire.
