The work

Chimney Sweep in Fremont

We protect the room with drop cloths and run a sealed vacuum while we brush the flue from top to bottom. The smoke shelf, smoke chamber and firebox are cleaned too.

Every sweep includes a look at the flue, damper, crown and cap, with photos of anything that needs attention. If the creosote is glazed and won't brush out, we explain the options before doing anything more.

See the full chimney sweep page for every detail of the work.

Why it matters here

Chimney Sweep in the California climate

Northern California has mild, wet winters and long, dry summers. The ground moves, the sun is strong, and wildfire season brings embers.

Earthquakes crack masonry chimneys at the roof line and loosen the crown. Many towns require a spark arrestor cap, and a cracked flue tile is the most common finding after a quake.
