What a proper sweep & inspection covers

Forty-plus years in Puget Sound flues taught us where trouble hides. Every visit is the full job, never a quick brush-and-go.

THE SWEEP

Complete cleaning

Firebox, smoke chamber, flue and cap: creosote swept out, with drop cloths down and the vacuum running the whole time.

THE INSPECTION

An 18-point inspection, every visit

A CSIA-trained sweep works their 18-point checklist: the liner, crown, flashing, damper and mortar joints among them — video inspection available on request, so you can see what we see.

THE STRAIGHT ANSWER

A written report — not a scare

You get what's in good shape, what needs watching, and what needs fixing, in writing, before any extra work is even discussed.

Guaranteed in writing, the old-fashioned way.

Every job carries our 1-year workmanship guarantee. Stainless steel caps carry a lifetime manufacturer's warranty, and ChimneySaver weatherizing carries a 10-year manufacturer's warranty. A company doesn't last from 1978 to today by cutting corners in your living room.

Fair questions, straight answers

How often should a chimney be swept?

For a fireplace or wood stove in regular winter use, once a year is the standard — their own guidance is a chimney inspected and cleaned every year. If it's been more than a couple of seasons, book the inspection first and we'll tell you honestly what it needs.

What does the 18-point inspection actually check?

Eighteen checkpoints, including the flue liner, smoke chamber, crown, cap, flashing, damper and visible masonry. You get the findings in writing — and video inspection is available on request. If it all checks out, we tell you that too.

Do you clean up inside the house?

Yes: drop cloths down and the vacuum running before a single brush goes up the flue. Your room is as clean when we leave as when we arrived.

How soon can you come out?

Call (253) 323-3281 and we'll give you the next opening, or send the form and we'll call you back with times.

Winter's coming. Get on the books.

One visit: swept, inspected, documented in writing, and guaranteed for a year, by the family that's done it since 1978.
