Chimney Cleaning.

Annually 123,000+ homes are damaged by flue fires.

Many factors can influence the amount of creosote build up so it pays to have your chimney serviced each year by an Us Chimney Corp trained and licensed technician.

Although the purpose of cleaning a chimney is to remove creosote, of even greater importance is a thorough safety inspection. At Us Chimney Corp, the entire chimney is inspected using our 20 point process.

Our "No Soot" cleaning process guarantees a neat job and is accomplished using the highest quality equipment available including dustless vacuum systems, a wide range of brush sizes to fit every flue, and heavy duty safety equipment.

What is Creosote - A sticky dust-like residue, creosote is vented through the chimney along with smoke and other gases. It sticks to the walls of the flue and can build up to a dangerous level. Creosote is highly flammable and can be ignited by something as simple as burning a few pieces of paper. This is commonly referred to as a chimney fire or flue fire and can spread quickly to the rest of your home. 

It Doesn't Take Much to Start a Home Fire.
