How Chimney Sweep Works in Palo Alto
Our proven process ensures thorough, professional results every time.
Chimney Inspection
We perform a visual inspection of your chimney, firebox, damper, and flue liner to assess condition and identify any damage or deterioration.
Creosote Removal
Using professional chimney brushes and rods, we scrub away creosote, soot, and buildup from the entire flue lining. Creosote is highly flammable and must be removed regularly.
Flue Cleaning
We clean the full flue from the firebox to the chimney top, ensuring clear airflow and proper ventilation for safe fireplace operation.
Cap & Damper Check
We inspect the chimney cap for damage, ensure the damper opens and closes properly, and check for animal nests or debris blocking the chimney top.
Safety Report
After cleaning, we provide a written safety report documenting the condition of your chimney, any issues found, and recommendations for repairs or maintenance.
