One of the dangers of owning and operating a chimney is the risk of a fire, which would destroy your home and take away your life. This is due to the buildup of creosote and debris inside of your chimney caused by the burning of wood in your fireplace. Regularly inspections and chimney cleanings are a must for prevention of creosote buildup. Safety for your home and family must come first. This is why you must have your chimney cleaned by a professional chimney sweep service.
