Your chimney’s holding onto old smoke. Creosote and soot absorb moisture and trap odors, especially in Aurora’s humid summers. A thorough sweep removes the buildup, and a fresh-air test confirms the smell’s gone. If it persists, we’ll check for cracks or a missing damper seal.
Look for rust streaks on the flue or debris piled on the crown. A missing cap lets birds nest and rain pour in, while a cracked one won’t stop embers. We spot these in under 5 minutes during a Level 1 inspection—no ladder needed.
Check for white stains on the exterior bricks (efflorescence) or soot falling into the firebox. If your liner’s clay and it’s cracked, it’s time. We’ll scope it for free if you’re unsure.
Creosote can ignite at 1,000°F even if you didn’t see flames. Aurora’s altitude and dry winters speed up buildup. A professional sweep removes the fuel; a camera inspection spots hidden cracks that could spread fire.
Stop using the fireplace immediately. Warm air rising can pull smoke out, but if it’s visible without a fire, you’ve got a blockage or a cracked flue. Call us same-day—we’ll scope it before it becomes a hazard.
A Level 1 inspection is $125; a Level 2 with camera is $195. Both include a written report. We don’t charge extra for travel in Aurora, unlike some outfits that tack on fees for ‘rural service.’
Yes, but wait 2 hours for the flue to dry. Sweeping removes moisture-trapping soot, so your first fire after rain will burn cleaner. If it’s pouring, skip the fire—your chimney’s already doing its job.
Level 1 is a visual check of accessible parts; Level 2 includes a camera crawl through the flue and attic access. Aurora’s building codes often require Level 2 after major storms or if you’ve had a chimney fire.
