Smoke enters the room
Smoke spilling into the living space instead of drawing up the flue can point to a blockage or buildup. A sweep clears soot and creosote, and we can identify whether the chimney needs a separate inspection or repair.
You see soot or creosote buildup
Dark residue around the fireplace or visible deposits inside the firebox are signs that combustion byproducts are collecting. Sweeping removes deposits from the chimney; the amount and location of buildup affect the work involved.
The fireplace has gone unused
A long break in use can leave debris or other obstructions in the passage. A fireplace chimney sweep addresses the flue buildup, while a chimney inspection is a separate service for evaluating the chimney’s condition.
You are preparing to use the fireplace
A sweep before regular use removes accumulated residue that can restrict the passage. If you also have concerns about cracks, water entry, or damaged masonry, tell us when booking so we can assess whether repair work is needed.
The fireplace smells smoky
A lingering smoky odor can come from soot and creosote deposits inside the chimney. Sweeping removes that buildup; if odor continues or smoke does not vent properly, a separate inspection can help assess the system.

What Our Minneapolis Chimney Sweep Service Covers
A chimney sweep focuses on removing soot and creosote from the chimney passage. It is not the same as a full chimney inspection or a repair, so tell us about any damage, leaks, or draft problems you have noticed when you book.
- Chimney sweeping — We remove soot and creosote buildup from the chimney as part of the sweep service.
- Creosote removal — When deposits have collected inside the flue, creosote removal addresses that buildup rather than leaving it in place.
- Fireplace cleaning — Fireplace cleaning is available for residue and debris around the fireplace; tell us whether you need the firebox addressed as well as the chimney.
- Chimney inspection — An inspection is available as a separate service when you need the chimney’s condition evaluated, including concerns beyond routine buildup.
- Chimney repair — For damaged masonry, a leak, or another defect, we offer chimney repair separately from sweeping so the needed work can be addressed.
- Chimney video inspection — A video inspection is available when a closer look inside the chimney is needed to assess a concern.

How a Minneapolis Chimney Sweep Visit Works
The time a visit takes depends on the chimney’s buildup, access, and the work requested. When you book, describe the fireplace and the symptoms you have noticed; that helps us understand whether you need a sweep alone or another service too.
- Book by phone or online — Call (612) 806-0154 or use the contact form to request service. We are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and same-day service is available.
- Describe the chimney and concern — Tell us whether you have a wood-burning fireplace, what you have noticed, and when the chimney was last used or cleaned, if you know. Clear details help us identify whether a sweep or a separate service may be appropriate.
- We assess the requested work — We consider access, the visible condition, and how much buildup needs attention. We explain the work clearly and recommend only the services a homeowner needs.
- We complete the agreed service — We carry out the chimney sweep or other booked work and let you know if a separate concern calls for inspection or repair. For ongoing fireplace care, we can also handle chimney maintenance near me requests across our Twin Cities service area.
What Determines Chimney Sweep Pricing
Chimney sweep service starts from $89. The final work and price can depend on how much soot or creosote has accumulated, access to the chimney, and whether the request is only for sweeping or includes another service. A damaged flue, leak, or masonry concern may need separate inspection or repair rather than being treated as routine cleaning.
For comparison, chimney inspection starts from $39, chimney cap installation from $125, and chimney liner installation from $899. We explain the work clearly and recommend only services you need. You can also review chimney inspection and chimney repair details before booking.
