    The OG Chimney Sweep Inc is a good company to work with. They came on time, let me walk through the inspection process. I asked many questions all of which were answered politely and proved very informative. They were clear about what the costs were and it actually turned out that I did need the chimney cleaned! I paid for only the work done. They will send me a reminder in about 2 years for a chimney cleaning. I like this company!

    When we purchased our new house, we had a contractor who stated he was a fireplace expert. The net result was a house full of smoke due to faulty construction, I inquired of the Original Chimney Sweep and a technician named Ken responded with his associate. Ken immediately identified the problem, crafted a solution and they began work. Ken and his crew worked hard, completing the work in one day paying close attention to details including not adding any soot during the removal of the faulty construction and relined the chimney according to industry standards. Ken representing his company is the gold standard in his field. Our family now will enjoy a cozy fire this winter without setting off all the smoke detectors thanks to Ken and his associate. DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE NAME, THE ORIGINAL CHIMNEY SWEEPS ARE A FULL SERVICE COMPANY. I STRONGLY RECOMEND THIS COMPANY FOR ALL YOUR

    Technician did a great job cleaning my wood stove and both flues. He explained all that he was to do and did. Was also very personable. Highly recommend The Original Chimney Sweep!

    It was smooth and easy right from the start working with Ben in the office. Ben answered a lot of questions I had along the way and was patient throughout the communication process. Eric and Jacky were great also with the install. Fast, efficient and ‘real’ to speak with.

Frequently Asked Questions About The Original Chimney Sweep Inc.

What are the levels of chimney inspection?

The Original Chimney Sweep Inc adheres to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) guidelines, which outline three levels of chimney inspection. Level 1 is a basic inspection for chimneys under normal use, examining accessible parts. Level 2 is more comprehensive, required after system changes or events like chimney fires, often using video scanning. Level 3 is the most thorough, conducted when serious hazards are suspected, potentially involving removal of building components. Contact The Original Chimney Sweep Inc for guidance on which inspection level is appropriate for your situation.

How do I know if my chimney needs repair?

Several signs may indicate your chimney requires repair. These include cracked or missing bricks, deteriorating mortar, white staining, rust on the damper or firebox, water leaks, smoke entering your home, unpleasant odors, or fallen flue liner pieces. If you observe any of these issues or haven't had a recent inspection, it's advisable to contact The Original Chimney Sweep Inc for a professional evaluation to ensure your home's safety and chimney's functionality.
