Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

When is the best time of year to hire a chimney sweep and why? How quickly will a chimney sweep be available to service my chimney?

Cleaning your chimney depends on how often you are using it but the best time to clean a chimney is after the summer months and before the start of the winter days. In this time, your chimney will be safe to use and ready to keep you warm without risking chimney fire or house fire and even risk to your health caused by harmful toxins like creosote. It is no use if you will clean the chimney and have it inspected after the warming season because animals can build nests and block the chimney so even if you leave it clean after the winter season it is still not safe to use because of this. It' is not only that, there might be damaged or cracked bricks and mortar that needs to be repaired and you will not know it unless you have requested for an inspection. Inspection and cleaning the chimney usually takes one to two hours depending on the amount of dirt that is accumulated in your chimney but if it is just going to be a regular cleaning and inspection will be separated, then it will take less than an hour and sometimes 10 to 30 minutes.

A professional chimney sweep will be available to service your chimney depending on the schedule that you have chosen, sometimes a chimney sweep will be fully booked that you need to wait for several days or even weeks to book an appointment. But once they are booked, they cannot afford to be late because the next schedule might be affected. You will be assured that they will come on time once you get hold of them.
