Written Safety Report
We seal the hearth opening with heavy-duty magnetic sheeting and attach a high-volume HEPA negative air scrubber before any brush enters the flue.
Flexible rod systems and specialized rotary heads clear creosote debris downward into our sealed collection drums without dust escape.
A high-resolution lens inspects every square inch of the flue liner, joints, and smoke shelf to verify structural soundness.
Homeowners receive a detailed condition summary, photo evidence, and maintenance recommendations before our technicians depart.
