What Our Chimney Sweep Customers Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what High Desert homeowners say about our chimney cleaning services.
"Had my 40 year old chimney, on a 2-story house, checked and cleaned. Did a great job, cleaned efficiently, quickly. Replaced an old spark arrester too. Highly recommended."
"I wanted a chimney cleaning and spark arrestor. What I got was the most thorough inspection of my insert setup I've ever had in my decades of owning it. Turns out it was improperly installed, which was causing airflow problems. So, a very pleasant and knowledgeable man (and honest--he told me I didn't really need a cleaning yet) solved a problem no one else ever noticed and gave friendly, prompt, efficient service at a very reasonable price. Give them a call. You won't regret it."

"I scheduled an appointment to have new firebrick put in my stove to replace broken ones and sweep my chimney. I also had them clean my dryer vent that goes up and out the side of my house higher up than the door. After seeing how much lint they removed I'm glad to see how a properly cleaned vent should look and operate. They called me and came before my scheduled appointment time which is always appreciated. They did everything I requested, have great prices for their services, and left no mess inside or out. It was also nice to talk to a person when I called and not having to leave a voicemail."

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about chimney sweep and cleaning services.
How often should I have my chimney cleaned?
The National Fire Protection Association recommends annual chimney inspections and cleaning when needed. If you use your fireplace regularly (1+ cord of wood per year), annual cleaning is typically necessary. Occasional users may need cleaning every 2-3 years.
What is creosote and why is it dangerous?
Creosote is a black, tar-like substance that forms when wood burns incompletely. It builds up in your chimney over time and is highly flammable. Creosote is the leading cause of chimney fires, which can spread to your home and cause devastating damage.
How long does a chimney cleaning take?
A typical chimney cleaning takes 1-2 hours, depending on the size and condition of your chimney. This includes the initial inspection, cleaning process, and final inspection with recommendations.
Will chimney cleaning create a mess in my home?
No. We use professional drop cloths and plastic sheeting to protect your floors and furniture. We also seal the fireplace opening to prevent dust and debris from entering your living space. We clean up completely before leaving.
Do you provide chimney inspections with cleaning?
Yes, every cleaning service includes a comprehensive inspection. We examine the chimney structure, flue liner, damper, and other components for damage or safety concerns. You'll receive a detailed report with our findings and recommendations.
What should I do to prepare for chimney cleaning?
Remove any items from around the fireplace area, ensure we have clear access to your roof and fireplace, and let us know about any specific concerns. We'll handle all the protective setup and cleanup.
