Does Your Chimney Need Cleaning and Servicing?
You should get your chimney inspected at least once a year to check for issues and to be cleaned if necessary. However, there are signs to look for that mean you need to call us sooner.
- Visible creosote buildup: If you can see significant amounts of this dark, oily or crusty substance when you look up into your chimney, it’s time for a clean.
- Poor draft: When you light a fire, smoke should go out of the chimney, not into your room! If you see smoke, it could be due to a blockage in the chimney. Creosote or debris like leaves, twigs or animal nests often causes this issue.
- Unusual odors: A strong smoky smell when the fireplace isn’t in use can signify creosote buildup.
- Animal activity: If you see animals or birds entering or leaving your chimney, there is probably a nest that needs to be removed.
