"We are a repeat customer of CJW and will continue to be. The team leader who has always done the job is Brad. He is very professional and knowledgeable and efficient in his job. And it's always nice seeing a familiar face - it tells you a company doesn't struggle with high employee turnover. Brad takes the time to explain everything and to answer questions. I would strongly recommend Brad and CJW to anyone for chimney sweep and inspections!"

"Jason was the mason who came out and repaired my chimney. He was on time, completed the job plus did an excellent job with clean-up and assisting in some additional needs around the chimney area. He was extremely pleasant and had great customer service, This is the third time I have used Dr. Sweep for fireplace and chimney issues. I highly recommend this company. Prices were also great."

Chimney Sweep questions, answered by experts

Some of the most common chimney problems include:

  • Creosote buildup

  • Chimney blockage

  • Deteriorating brickwork or stonework

  • Cracked chimney top

  • Damaged flashing

  • Flue liner damage or deterioration

  • Damaged chimney cap

If you suspect you have a chimney problem, contact a masonry contractor for an inspection. 

Smoke can be tricky to remove from your home, especially after a fire. The best way to eliminate the smell is to open the windows to increase ventilation and air circulation in your house. Then, use white vinegar to wipe down walls, furniture, and floors. Try steam-cleaning carpet and other upholstered items to remove the smell of smoke.

In many cases, professionals can completely remove certain types of smoke damage from walls and ceilings, but it’s only possible if the damage is minor. For more extensive damage from major fires, you’ll likely need to replace the damaged materials entirely. Some items, like upholstered furniture, are much trickier to clean and might need to be replaced even if the smoke damage is minimal.

Common issues discovered during a chimney inspection or cleaning include creosote buildup, cracked liners, structural degeneration or masonry degradation, and obstructions such as blocked flues or animal nests. These issues are potential safety hazards that can lead to combustion problems or poor air quality if not addressed.

Burning a single palm tree stump, if you’re careful, is technically doable DIY. However, you should always take precautions to control the fire and do research if you’re burning multiple types of trees. 

Some trees, such as ornamental trees, black cherry, and some oak trees, release toxins into the air when burned that can be irritating to your lungs (or even dangerous) to breathe in.
