"Where have we come to in 2022? What should be the norm is now entirely unexpected. It was thus a very pleasant surprise to have an honest, individual to deal with. Having moved into a new house which had not been appropriately taken care of by the previous owner, we thought we needed to have our fireplaces and chimneys cleaned prior to installation of fireplace doors. Jeff arrived on time, was extremely polite and quickly assessed our planned usage of the fireplaces. He then advised us that all we needed were the fireplace doors thus saving us from unnecessarily spending money on the cleaning. Thank you Jeff. We appreciate your honest assessment and advice. You are the only person we would call, if our fireplaces or chimneys should need any attention in the future."

"Archway Clean Sweep were great! I just wish I could have used their services. Cindy was very professional and friendly on the phone when I explained what I was needing and scheduled me efficiently. When the chimney sweep men came, they evaluated my chimney from the outside first and came to the door. He said he could do the sweep and charge me, but wouldn't recommend we burn a fire in our fireplace. He walked outside with me and showed me and explained the problems with the original build of the chimney, why it wasn't explained in our home-buying inspection and what would need to be done to correct it. He answered my questions and gave me a referral for a direct vent for a gas fireplace conversion that I asked him for. So refreshing to have a company come out who looked out for the safety of our home & family over making a quick buck. If I had cash, I would have a least given him a tip for the time he took to drive and talk with me. His knowledge was invaluable. We need more businesses like Archway Clean Sweep to take care of our homes!"

"Afton, called ahead and was able to come earlier than scheduled. I was able to see up the chimney before and after the job. The service was almost dust free."

"Josh installed a new cap on my chimney when the old one came off from hail and wind. He came the next day as promised, installed the cap for the reasonable price he quoted and was very professional. I will use him again in the future for chimney work."

"Mike was great! He was prompt, did a thorough inspection, and took the time to explain everything to me and then even showed me some tips and tricks that I didn t know as a first time fire place/chimney owner. He came for a sweep but after the inspection said that it didn t need it. It was reassuring to know that he could have pulled the wool over my eyes and make a buck but instead was honest. We will definitely have him back and recommend to anyone!"

"I contacted John Craft, whom we have used successfully for years for our current chimney, to do an evaluation at our new residence that we were have having inspected 3 days later.  He juggled his schedule to do the evaluation when all of the other inspectors would be there.  He was prompt, and though as always, and we very much appreciated both his flexibility and wealth of knowledge that he shared with us regarding the new fireplace/chimney.  He did not require an unneeded sweep prior to the evaluation as it did not need one, probably due to non use by the owner.  Again, we've used Gateway Chimney Sweeps for several years now at our current address.  John operates with a great amount of integrity and we've never had to question the quality of his work."

FAQs for chimney sweeping projects in Kimmswick, MO

While it’s possible to sweep your own chimney, it’s usually not a good idea for two reasons. First, inexperienced DIYers are more likely to miss areas of the chimney, which still leaves the risk of house fire due to the remaining residue. Second, chimney sweeping seems like a simple process, but it’s highly dangerous. Soot and creosote are both carcinogenic and can cause breathing issues and lung damage. If you don’t take the same safety precautions that professionals do, you could be putting yourself at risk of serious bodily harm.

You should plan to ask your chimney sweeper questions about the cleaning process they intend to use, the project timeline, and more to get a sense of which professional is right for the job:

  • What is your process for cleaning chimneys?

  • How long will the process take?

  • Will you protect my floors from soot and debris?

  • Will you do a chimney inspection, too?

  • Do you have certification from the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) or the National Fire Institute (NFI)?

  • Will you need access to my roof?

The average cost for a professional chimney cleaning is around $250, but prices range from $130 to $400 or more, depending on a few factors. Some things that have an impact on your total include the size of your chimney, the number of chimneys cleaned, and how accessible the chimneys are.

In some cases, you don’t need to do anything to prepare for chimney sweeping, but professionals always appreciate leaving the area clean and easy to access. As such, it’s a good idea to move fireplace accessories like screens and fire tending tools out of the way, and lay down tarps of drop cloths around your fireplace opening to help keep your floors clean. Laying down a plastic sheet under those cloths or tarps is a good idea if your fireplace is surrounded by carpeting, just to add extra protection. Finally, secure any pets or children away from the work area.

The National Fire Prevention Agency (NFPA) recommends chimney sweeping once per year as a means of avoiding house fires and massive property damage. Over time, creosote and soot build up in your chimney from burning wood and a lack of ventilation. These compounds are both highly flammable, which means a build-up of them inside your chimney puts you at an increased risk of house fire. Chimney sweeping removes any residue and helps reduce the risk of property damage and personal injury from fire.
