The bay areas Most Thorough & Professional Chimney & Fireplace Cleaning

Having a chimney and fireplace in your home can be a real blessing and can add to your overall relaxation and enjoyment when at home. But like anything, chimneys and fireplaces require regular maintenance if they’re to continue to serve you and operate the way they were designed to. And part of that maintenance involves regular cleanings.
​

Why Chimney & Fireplace Cleaning Is So Important

Chimney cleaning is needed to remove creosote deposits and other debris from chimneys and vents. Creosote buildup in chimneys can lead to chimney fires and flue blockages, both of which can seriously threaten the safety of you and your family.
  • During a chimney fire, temperatures inside the chimney often exceed 2000 degrees and can destroy your chimney or even spread to the rest of the house.
  • In the event of a flue blockage, which may be caused by creosote or other debris such as animal nests, dangerous fumes can be forced back into your home.
Chimney cleaning is a vital service to protect the health and safety of your family and home. All chimneys, including the chimney for your furnace, should be inspected annually, with cleaning performed as needed.
