Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed
Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

How to Redeem
Three steps and you’re booked. First, call (571) 518-5470 and tell the person who answers which offer you want. Second, we’ll set a real arrival window, and if the schedule slips, we call you before you wonder. Third, when the sweep shows up, just mention the offer again at the door. The price you heard on the phone is the price on the invoice, offer included. Senior or veteran? Say so and the ten percent comes off automatically. Estimates are free, and the camera footage comes with every sweep.
