What affects the price

The final price for your chimney service depends on a few straightforward factors. We look at the total height of your chimney, the level of creosote buildup inside the flue, and the specific type of fireplace or wood stove you have installed. If your system requires extra repairs, damper adjustments, or a specialized animal nest removal, that will naturally adjust the total. We believe in transparency, so you will get your exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

This combined service includes both the mechanical removal of soot and a safety evaluation of your chimney’s structure. You need this whenever you buy a new home, experience a chimney fire, or simply haven't had your fireplace serviced in over a year. An inspection identifies hidden cracks or structural damage that a basic cleaning might miss, keeping your home safe during fireplace season.

Summer is often overlooked, but it is actually a great time to service your chimney. Technicians have more availability, making it easier to book a time that fits your schedule. Additionally, clearing out debris before the rainy season helps prevent moisture-related issues that can lead to unpleasant odors or structural damage. Get your maintenance handled while the weather is clear.
