Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Helping Boston homeowners stay safe and confident with professional chimney cleaning and maintenance.

We’ve gathered common questions about professional chimney cleaning, repair, and maintenance in Boston — ensuring you know exactly what to expect when choosing True Hearth Chimney Sweep.

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends having your chimney inspected and cleaned at least once a year, ideally before the heavy usage of winter. This critical maintenance prevents blockages, hazardous creosote buildup, and potential chimney fires.

  • Annual inspections ensure home safety and proper system ventilation.
  • High-frequency fireplace use may require more than one professional chimney cleaning per year.

Common warning signs include smoke backing into the room, strange odors, visible masonry cracks, or pieces of falling brick and mortar. If you notice these issues, contact True Hearth Chimney Sweep immediately for a safety inspection.

  • Look for white staining (efflorescence) or crumbling bricks, which are key indicators of moisture damage.
  • Listen closely for animal noises or persistent drafts, as these frequently indicate flue blockages.

Our Level 2 chimney inspection, performed by a certified Boston chimney sweep, includes a detailed check of the interior flue, firebox, damper, and exterior structure. We thoroughly assess for cracks, blockages, and creosote buildup to ensure your system is safe and efficient.

  • We utilize modern camera systems for a complete, high-resolution interior flue assessment.
  • Clients receive a clear, documented report with detailed safety recommendations if needed.

Absolutely! True Hearth Chimney Sweep installs high-quality chimney caps, flashing, and waterproof coatings to protect your system from harsh Boston weather, animals, and debris. These upgrades extend chimney longevity and prevent future costly repairs.

  • Professional waterproofing protects against structural leaks and premature masonry damage.
  • Durable caps and screens reliably keep nuisance birds and rodents out of your chimney flue.
