The chimney sweeping Brentwood staff are locally owned and operated. We are members of the National Chimney Sweep Guild which is an association of venting professionals. Our company has been in the industry for thirty years and we are fully insured and bonded. We also carry commercial insurance. When you hire someone to come out and do work for you, hire someone who is vetted and properly trained in the area of work that you are hiring them for. A jack of all trades is not going to be skilled and expertly trained solely in the area of chimney sweeping like our Ninjas are. Be careful who you let enter your home. We have tons of knowledge and experience doing this type of work and know what to look for when inspecting chimneys for defects.
It only takes a short amount of time to properly sweep a chimney, but during that amount of time a tremendous amount of damage causing soot and creosote can be removed from the inside of your fireplace and chimney. Our pros at chimney sweeping Brentwood can sweep a chimney in about 45 minutes to one hour. Depending on how much creosote is built up on the inside of the chimney and how much elbow grease has to be exerted to remove all of that gunk it could be an easy task or a difficult one. No matter what, when the job is done your chimney will be clean and work more efficiently than it did before. That is a guarantee! Did you know that when soot and creosote are taking up space on the inside of your chimney that they are causing less space for dangerous smoke and fumes from a burning fire to escape to the outside of the home? When smoke and fumes can not escape the right way they may back up into the home.
This creates a bad scenario for those inside of the house. Smoke inhalation can cause folks to pass out or create breathing difficulties. Smoke also causes damage to furniture and linens. Either way it can be costly to your health or your home. The other awful thing that can happen from having too much soot and creosote build up is an ember from a burning fire can ignite the creosote on the inside of the chimney flue. If the homeowner is not aware that this is happening, then an even worse problem can take place and the home can burn down. As you can see it is in you and your families best interest to get your fireplace and chimney swept each year and get the pros to inspect it. Chimney sweeping Brentwood does not want you and your family to fall prey to a deadly homefire. These fires are preventable so do your part and get your chimney swept.
When we inspect your chimney we wil also look for cracked bricks, a damper that is not working as it should, a chimney cap that is loose or gone entirely, and animals that may be nesting inside the chimney. You would be amazed at what can happen to your chimney during the off season, especially when heavy storms occur. Have you been hearing funny noises coming from the inside of your chimney? It could be a bird or squirrel. We have found other animals inside of the chimney as well, even mice. Gross…right? Do yourself a favor and get the pros at chimney sweeping Brentwood to come over and do a chimney sweep before you start your first fire. We don’t want you to find a crispy fried squirrel falling down into your lovely fire any time soon.
