What Happens During Your Chimney Sweep
-
Setup and Dust Containment
The technician seals the firebox opening with a dust barrier and connects a HEPA vacuum to the system before any brushing starts. The interior of your home stays clean. Ash and soot go directly into the collection unit, not into the room.
-
Flue Cleaning and Creosote Removal
A rotating brush works from the firebox up through the full flue run to the cap. First and second-degree creosote comes off with the brush pass. Third-degree glazed creosote requires a chemical treatment applied and left to cure before a second brush run removes it. We tell you which stage you have and what that means for your next visit.
-
Level 1 Inspection and Written Report
After cleaning, every accessible portion of the chimney gets a Level 1 inspection per NFPA 211: firebox, smoke shelf, damper, visible flue liner, exterior crown, and cap. You receive a written report with any findings before the technician leaves the driveway. Nothing is communicated verbally and forgotten.
Chimney Sweep + Level 1 Inspection
Full creosote removal, liner inspection, and written safety report. Wood, gas, or oil appliance. Fixed price - no hidden charges.
What You Can Expect From This Crew
How long does a chimney sweep take?
A standard sweep and Level 1 inspection takes 45 to 90 minutes depending on the amount of buildup and the chimney's accessibility. A chimney with heavy third-degree creosote takes longer. We block the firebox opening with a dust barrier before starting, so the interior of your home stays clean.
Can I use my fireplace right after a chimney sweep?
Yes. A properly swept chimney is immediately safe to use. We vacuum the firebox and flue after cleaning, so there is no loose ash or soot left behind.
What is the best time of year to schedule a chimney sweep?
Late summer or early fall - before the heating season - is ideal. You get the job done before demand peaks and you have time to address any repairs before the first fire. Spring sweeps are also fine if you want to start fresh after a heavy winter.
How much does chimney cleaning cost near Boise?
Our chimney sweep with Level 1 inspection is $249, fixed. We do not separate the sweep from the inspection because cleaning a flue without checking it is not a safe or complete job. If the inspection reveals issues requiring a Level 2 camera run, that is $349 and is booked as a separate visit unless we are already on-site and can complete both same day.
