FAQ

What Does Chimney Cleaning Include?

When you schedule chimney sweep service with Goodrich Chimney, we clean and inspect the fireplace and chimney.

What Causes Creosote to Accumulate?

Creosote is a toxic type of debris that builds up in wood-burning fireplaces. If too much creosote accumulates on the inner chimney walls, it can cause clogs and impact proper airflow. In fact, unresolved creosote buildup is a leading cause of chimney fires.

The chimney sweep process clears away creosote buildup to improve the function of the fireplace. Reduce the risk of fires with creosote removal.

How Long Does a Chimney Sweep Take?

Chimney cleaning doesn’t take long. Plan around an hour per chimney flue. However, the amount of dirt and condition of the chimney can impact the standard timeframe.

The chimney inspection is also typically quick. For high roofs or poor conditions, the inspection may take longer. Overall, it’s beneficial and worth the time and effort to schedule chimney cleaning and inspection annually.
