Our Services

{"response":"If you own a home in Palo Alto and your fireplace hasn’t seen a clean in a while, you’re probably worried about creosote stacking up inside the flue. That black gunk is the main trigger for chimney fires, and a blocked flue can choke the draft, making the fire smoke back into your house.

We’ll give you an honest inspection, point out any safety issues, and fix the draft so the fire burns cleanly. Call (888) 606-5487 for a no-nonsense appointment and peace of mind."}

A standard sweep clears out creosote and soot from the flue. We inspect the liner for cracks or blockages. The damper is checked and lubricated if needed. We also look at the firebox for any debris. Finally we test the draft to make sure smoke exits properly.

Pricing is based on the size of the chimney and how much buildup there is. A simple clean starts at a flat rate, but heavy creosote adds extra time and cost. We’ll give you an upfront quote before any work begins. No hidden fees, just the labor and any needed parts. If extra repairs are needed, we’ll explain before proceeding.

You don’t have to stay the whole time, but we like a homeowner nearby for safety. Someone should be home when we start, in case we need to clear a blockage. You can leave after we finish the sweep and inspection. If you’re not home, we can leave a written report. Just make sure the area around the fireplace is clear.

A typical sweep takes about one to two hours. Larger houses or heavy buildup can push it closer to three hours. We’ll finish quickly but won’t rush a safety check. After the sweep we do a draft test and show you the results. You’ll know if any follow-up work is needed.

We stand behind our work with a guarantee on the sweep. If creosote builds up again within the warranty period, we’ll re-inspect at no extra charge. The guarantee covers proper draft and clean flue. We won’t charge for any missed spots found during the follow-up. Our goal is to keep your chimney safe and your mind at ease.

Before we come, clear the area around the fireplace. Remove any toys, rugs, and furniture that could get in the way. Make sure the damper is open so we can see the flue. Gather any wood logs you plan to keep for the fire. Let the house be reasonably tidy, and have a clear path to the chimney access point.

We cover the whole county and neighboring towns. Our service area includes the city you mentioned, plus surrounding communities. We can reach most suburbs within a short drive. If you live near a main road, getting to your house is easy. Just give us a call and we’ll confirm if we’re in your zone.

We always clean up after the sweep. We brush out soot and creosote from the flue and wipe down the firebox. All debris is cleared from the hearth and surrounding floor. We sweep the area and leave it tidy. You’ll see no mess left behind when we finish.
