Professional Chimney Sweep & Inspection

Creosote Removal

We remove flammable creosote buildup — the leading cause of chimney fires — using rotary brushes and HEPA-filtered vacuums that keep your home spotless.

Level 1 & 2 Inspections

Our NFPA 211 inspections catch hidden problems early. Level 2 camera inspections are available for real estate transactions and insurance requirements.

Full Safety Check

Every sweep includes a Level 1 visual safety inspection of your flue liner, cap, crown, damper, and smoke chamber — at no extra cost.

Drop Cloth Protection

We protect your home with drop cloths and HEPA vacuums, seal the fireplace opening before sweeping, and leave your home cleaner than we found it.

Signs You Need an Inspection

Portland's wet climate is tough on chimneys. If you've noticed any of these, it's time for a professional sweep and inspection.

Soot Stains Around the Fireplace

Dark stains or a smoky residue on the front of your fireplace or surrounding brick often mean your chimney isn't drafting properly — smoke is backing up into the room instead of exiting the flue.

Smoke Backflow & Creosote Buildup

If smoke enters the room when you light a fire, or you notice a strong campfire smell, you may have creosote buildup or a draft obstruction. Creosote is the leading cause of chimney fires.

Cracks in the Chimney or Crown

Visible cracks in the brick, mortar joints, or concrete crown let water into the chimney structure. Portland's freeze-thaw cycles widen those cracks each winter, leading to spalling and interior damage.

Flue Interior Before & After

Creosote buildup is the leading cause of chimney fires. Our sweeps remove it completely — see the difference.

What Portland Homeowners Are Saying

“They did an excellent job of cleaning out my chimney! I had been putting it off for so long. They took care of everything though, and for a very reasonable price! 10 out of 10, would recommend.”
