Using brushes, rods, and a HEPA vacuum, we remove all creosote, soot, and debris from the full length of the flue.

Firebox Cleaning

The firebox, smoke shelf, and damper are cleaned and inspected for cracks, missing mortar, and proper operation.

Chimney Cleaning & Sweeping FAQ for Provo Homeowners

How often should Provo homeowners get chimney cleaning & sweeping?
Given Provo's high-altitude semi-arid climate at 4,551 ft, most homeowners benefit from chimney cleaning & sweeping at least once a year. Snow removal from driveways and roofs (December–March) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Provo most need chimney cleaning & sweeping?
Ranch homes throughout Utah County and New construction in Spanish Fork, Springville, and Saratoga Springs are the most common home types in Provo and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
How often should chimneys be cleaned?
The NFPA recommends annual inspection and cleaning for any chimney that's used. Frequency of sweeping depends on usage — heavy users may need cleaning twice per season.
What is creosote and why is it dangerous?
Creosote is a flammable residue from burning wood that deposits inside the flue. In heavy accumulations, it can ignite and burn at over 2,000°F — hot enough to crack flue tiles and ignite surrounding materials.
Do I need a chimney sweep for a gas fireplace?
Gas fireplaces don't produce creosote, but annual inspection is still recommended to check the flue, blockages, and gas connections for safety.
Will chimney cleaning make a mess in my home?
Professional sweeps use drop cloths and HEPA vacuums to contain soot and debris. A properly performed sweep leaves no mess in your home.
