This home is getting the chimney cleaned and checked by a professional cleaner.

October is Fire prevention month – so what better reminder to have your chimney checked.  As the colder weather approaches getting the home fires burning will be the icing on the cake that fall is here, and winter is coming.  Now is the time to get your chimney checked.  The National Fire Protection Association recommends that chimneys, fireplaces and vents should be inspected at least once a year.  Having your chimney inspected greatly reduces your chance of a chimney fires – as the sweep removes debris that has deposited along the chimney walls and removes any animal nests that may been accumulated over the spring and summer months.  Check the firebox for any cracks or loose joints. Hiring a professional can give you peace of mind and assurance that you are ready to get the home fires burning.
