Chimney Cleaning Services

Regular chimney cleaning is essential for preventing chimney fires and ensuring proper ventilation.

At Flatrate Chimney Sweep, we provide thorough chimney cleaning services to remove creosote buildup, debris, and blockages that can pose serious fire hazards and affect the efficiency of your fireplace.

Why Chimney Cleaning Is Important

Over time, burning wood in your fireplace creates a substance called creosote that sticks to the inner walls of your chimney. This highly flammable material is the leading cause of chimney fires. Additionally, debris like leaves, twigs, and even animal nests can block your chimney, causing smoke to back up into your home.

The National Fire Protection Association recommends that chimneys be inspected annually and cleaned as needed to reduce these risks.
