At LKN Chimney Sweep, we’re dedicated to keeping your home safe, warm, and worry-free. Our trained and CSIA-certified technicians provide expert chimney sweeping and maintenance to ensure your fireplace and chimney are operating at peak efficiency.
A clean chimney means better performance, improved air quality, and reduced fire risk—and we’re here to make that happen!
What to Expect from a Professional Chimney Sweep
Our process is thorough, efficient, and mess-free! Here’s what happens when you schedule a sweep with us:
✅ Step 1: Inspection
Before we start cleaning, we conduct a detailed inspection of your chimney and fireplace to check for blockages, creosote buildup, or structural issues. If needed, we use a camera inspection to get a closer look inside the flue.
✅ Step 2: Prep & Protection
We take care of your home! Protective tarps and specialized vacuums ensure that soot and debris stay out of your living space.
✅ Step 3: Chimney Cleaning
Using industry-leading tools, we safely remove creosote, soot, and debris from your chimney, flue, and firebox. Our standard sweep keeps your system functioning efficiently and reduces fire hazards.
✅ Step 4: Recommendations & Report
After cleaning, we provide a detailed report on your chimney’s condition. If we find any issues—like cracks, damaged dampers, or missing caps—we’ll give you clear recommendations for necessary repairs or maintenance.
Why Chimney Sweeping Matters
✔ Prevents Chimney Fires – Creosote buildup is highly flammable. Regular sweeping removes this risk.
✔ Improves Fireplace Efficiency – A clean chimney allows smoke and gases to vent properly, keeping your home safe and warm.
✔ Reduces Smoke & Odors – Eliminate smoky smells and backdraft issues caused by buildup or blockages.
✔ Protects Your Home – Regular maintenance helps prevent expensive chimney repairs down the line.
Specialized Creosote Removal – Poultice Creosote Remover (PCR)
If your chimney has heavy creosote buildup (Stage 3 glaze), we offer a Poultice Creosote Remover (PCR) treatment. This advanced process helps break down hardened creosote deposits that can’t be removed with standard sweeping.
How It Works:
1️⃣ Application – We apply a specialized poultice that penetrates creosote buildup.
2️⃣ Soaking Period – The treatment sits for several hours or overnight to break down the creosote.
3️⃣ Removal – Our team scrapes and sweeps away the softened creosote, restoring your chimney’s airflow and safety.
Note: PCR treatment is an advanced service and is charged separately from a standard chimney sweep.
