Technician may seem like a high-sounding word, but someone or a professional team with special skills and years of experience is needed when you think of hiring a chimney sweep Washington DC area and in surrounding regions including Virginia and Maryland.
One does not realize how many individual jobs fall into those that can be performed by full service chimney sweeps. Initially there might be the installation of a prefabricated chimney system with its dampers, covers, rain caps, smoke guards, and exhaust fans. Then down the line there is the usual cleaning to keep your fires burning properly and your home free of soot and fire hazards, liner installation and relining to control flames and reduce the likelihood of cracks that can lead to structural damage, waterproofing, repairs including water or smoke leaks and loose masonry plus old and cracked bricks, animal and bird removal, and much more.
It is important to keep your chimney regularly cleaned and maintained from top to bottom to keep dirt, birds, animals, and debris from building up and eventually going into your home. By scheduling a regular chimney cleaning, you can avoid the hazards that a dirty chimney can produce and keep your chimney in top condition. Chimneys are popular places for small animals and birds to build nests that can likely block the flow of smoke and fumes.
You want any tasks and repairs to be completed properly, timely, neatly, and to your complete satisfaction after a prompt inspection and evaluation by a professional chimney service provider. An all-around company can also work on patios, sidewalks, driveways, retaining walls, and driveways. It might also be capable of doing exceptionally beautiful brick and masonry work to give you the most stunning house on the block!
