CHIMNEY CLEANING SERVICES
A lovely fireplace in a home that hasn't been used in a while might need attention before a fire is lit. An inactive fireplace doesn't mean a safe fireplace; homeowners need to make sure that the chimney is clean first.
However, a simple soot cleaning isn't enough. For the fireplace and chimney to be functional and safe, they need professional chimney cleaning services. Fortunately, Sweeps N Ladders is up to the task. We offer comprehensive chimney cleaning services to our clients, regardless of what type of fireplace they have at home.
All of our chimney cleaning equipment is designed to thoroughly remove all creosote and soot without damaging the chimney in the process.
We deal with the chimney's interior and exterior and use high-speed vacuums, drop cloths, and create as little mess as possible. After we are done cleaning the chimney, we advise our clients on how to maintain their chimney and fireplace properly.
For example, it's best to stick to wood such as maple, oak, and other hardwood, as they leave less creosote buildup. It is also essential to make sure the logs are not damp before lighting a fire.
Finally, installing a chimney cover keeps the animals and birds away. Additionally, it prevents excessive heat loss during the cold months.

CHIMNEY SWEEP SERVICES
Nothing beats relaxing in front of a fireplace on a cold evening. However, this experience can be ruined if the fireplace starts smoking or is not working correctly. Burning wood in the fireplace creates smoke that may contain tar-like particles, which can damage the fireplace and eventually the chimney if not regularly cleaned.
The chimney becomes covered in unburned gases and vapors, leading to the development of creosote. As a chimney sweep company, Sweeps N Ladders understands the importance of regular chimney sweeping and all the ways it can benefit a home.
If the creosote buildup exceeds one-eighth of an inch, it's time to take action. However, most homeowners won't be able to assess the situation and should call us to inspect it. Another common question might be how often homeowners should call a professional chimney sweep service. The consensus among chimney sweep specialists is that one sweep per year should be the minimum.
However, other factors can influence how often the chimney needs to be cleaned. For example, if it has been a particularly cold year and the fireplace has worked overtime, we may need to sweep the chimney more frequently. The age of the chimney also plays a significant role. Finally, if the chimney doesn't have a cover, animals could get stuck inside.
The Sweeps N Ladders team takes the process of chimney sweeping very seriously. Our goal is to deliver the best possible service to our clients and exceed their expectations. We know that chimney sweep services can be dirty, so it's our goal to keep the mess at a minimum.
We place a tarp on the floor, next to the fireplace, and ensure the surrounding area is clean. Any equipment we use is placed on the tarp. When cleaning the chimney flue, we use the appropriate brush size for maximum creosote removal
When we get on the roof, we look for signs of masonry damage, flashing, and any hidden issues on the exterior. All of the ashes collected from the firebox are removed appropriately using a disposal bag.
