"I hired Shamrock Chimney to clean and inspect my chimney for the sale of my home 4 weeks in advance of the deadline. I let them know numerous times that I had a deadline to provide the report. They rescheduled 4 times, one of the times telling me they were on their way and then following up with a text saying they gave the appointment to another customer. I let them know I would pay an extra fee if it meant they could keep the appointment, noting that I was under contract to provide this report. I reminded them of this each time they called to cancel, and was laughed at once and told it was "not their problem that it was heating season." After the final cancelation, I let them know I would now miss my deadline for my house contract and they again said that was not their fault and that an appointment is not a guarantee - regardless of circumstance. I was in tears and as a business owner cannot fathom treating customers with such disregard and disrespect."

Cronos Contracting is a family owned and operated company. The owner Tom Riverson (ME!) is a second generation chimney sweep and I choose me bristles with pride! You might see my father (the 1st generation sweep)and I get together to work on some more difficult projects and it's always a good time! How many people can say they've had a family reunion on a rough top! The Company: We offer our service guarantee, if you're not happy it's free. A standard sweep will run $119.00 before tax and includes an inspection, (1) flue and (1) fireplace cleaning and the ash getting all scooped up! What's a standard sweep? A standard sweep is a fireplace which commonly burns seasoned dry wood and contains no more than a mild stage 2 creosote, the black small clumpy stuff usually seen in the flue. A not so standard sweep will have all (3) stages of creosote and be baked on real good which is not so good and will require several types of brushes to clean as well as a couple of creosote treatments to insure the danger of a chimney fire is reduced and avoided. These are priced on a case by case basis although I haven't done one yet that ran over $200 for the cleaning portion. Creosote treatments are $60.00 each and are VERY effective! We run specials often so call and check our prices! Thanks and we look forward to your sweep! When you're with a sweep your as lucky as lucky can be!

FAQs for chimney sweeping projects in Waterbury, VT

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.
