Frequently Asked Questions

Is it worth having a chimney inspected?

Yes, there is danger in being unaware of the condition of your chimney. Fire and extensive damage can result from problems you did not even know that you had – problems that we can identify and resolve for you.

As a new homeowner, how would I know if my fireplace and chimney need cleaning?

If you do not have documentation of current history of cleaning or inspection, it is suggested that you call and schedule a sweep and inspection before your first use of the fireplace. There can be hidden damage or creosote buildup that can cause future more damaging problems. Safety for your family is the #1 reason, you should have your system check out.

Do chimneys for gas fireplaces need to be cleaned?

Gas fireplaces do not produce creosote, although they do still need annual cleaning. A chimney sweeping of your gas fireplace will help remove items like bird’s nests, animals, and any debris that may have gotten trapped there as well as potential soot. When you book a sweep, you are also receiving an inspection of the entire fireplace and chimney.

How long does a chimney cleaning take?

Cleaning and inspecting your chimney usually takes less than one hour.

Called to see if I could get a chimney inspection and I’m thankful I did. We have an older house and we’ve been having issues with odor especially after it rains. We were able to schedule a full repair. The two technicians that showed up on time very helpful and very nice. My wife and I highly recommend the soot masters.

High Quality Materials

Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed

Honest Prices

Spade

 Appears similar to a flat shovel. It is associated with digging, mainly meant to pick up ashes, hot coals, and burning embers. Moving around the ashes and providing a cleaner burn, there will be a decrease in smoke production. Typically, use to clean ashes and coals once they are cooled by scooping them into the ash dump door.

Tongs

Similar to the ones for cooking, but these are much larger. These are large enough to grab logs, pieces of wood, and breaking up burnt wood to provide more oxygen. More oxygen creates more flames and less smoke.

Fireplace Broom

A tiny/small broom that is to sweep out ashes from the fireplace once a fire has been extinguished. This is important to have because all fires create ash and it fits in the fireplace to clean.

Bellows

Not one of the more commonly known tools, but meant to blow a controlled gust of oxygen into the fire to increase the flames. There is a valve on the end to direct the wave of air. It is to help start the fire by increasing the flame size and heat. Typically used to light the kindling.

Fireplace Poker

 A long metal extended rod with a pointed end, similar to a Philips screwdriver. Can move wood in the fire.

Andiron

A rarer tool and known as a ‘log-dog’. It is a horizontal bar that is used to hold/support logs that are fed to the flames. It allows more air to pass through, producing a cleaner burn.

The Toolset You Don’t Play With

As a young kid and you’re over at your grandparents house playing in the den. Well, in the den, there is a fireplace. Right beside the fireplace was a set of tools that looked interesting and cool to play with. Below are descriptions of each tool in the set. Reminder, each set does not include all six pieces; some have less while others have seven or more.
