Our Services

If you live in North Cambridge and rely on a wood-burning fireplace, a clean chimney isn’t a luxury—it’s a safety need. Creosote builds up fast, turning the inside of your flue into a ticking time-bomb for a chimney fire. A blocked flue or clogs can choke the draft, making smoke spill into your living room and hurting efficiency. We’ll do a straight-forward inspection, point out any problem spots, and give you a clear, honest estimate before any work starts. After we sweep away the buildup and clear the path, you’ll have a proper draft again and peace of mind knowing your chimney is safe.

All this is done to prevent chimney fires and keep your heating safe.

Pricing is based on the height of the chimney and the level of creosote. Flat rates cover basic sweeps, while heavy buildup adds a surcharge.
