Confirm who maintains the flue
In a condo, ask whether the fireplace and flue belong to your unit or the association. If the flue is shared or the building controls roof access, provide the authorized contact before we schedule.

Property-specific planning
What to share before your Arlington appointment
Tell us if you’ve just moved in
If the service history is unknown, send any inspection notes you received and explain whether you intend to use the fireplace. We’ll discuss what a sweep and visual review cover and when you need a separate assessment.
Plan around parking and work hours
Tell us about loading areas, stairs, service elevators, or approved contractor windows. If a tenant will meet the crew, include who can authorize the scope and receive the visit notes.
What to confirm in your chimney-cleaning scope
Before cleaning
Confirm the fireplace and flue being serviced, protect the work area, and review accessible conditions. Tell us about prior repairs or unfamiliar equipment before the visit.
The approved sweep
Clean accessible soot and buildup using tools appropriate to the agreed system and access. Heavy deposits, blockages, or inaccessible sections may require a different scope and separate approval.
Findings and next steps
Review accessible findings and available service notes or photos. A sweep does not include liner repair, masonry work, cap installation, or gas-appliance maintenance unless separately specified and available.

Arlington chimney sweep questions
Can I book a chimney sweep for an Arlington condo?
Ask management who maintains the flue and whether outside contractors are allowed. The DMV team can then confirm the fireplace type, permission, and access before quoting.
Can you check a wood-burning fireplace before I start using it again?
Tell us how long it has been unused and what you know about its condition. We can review whether a sweep and accessible visual review fit the request, or whether you should arrange a separate inspection.
Can I request dryer vent cleaning during the same Arlington visit?
Select both services in the form. We’ll review the fireplace and dryer exhaust separately and confirm whether the crew can complete both during one visit.
Does chimney sweeping include gas fireplace servicing?
No. Our chimney/flue cleaning scope does not include inspection, repair, or maintenance of gas burners, valves, pilot assemblies, or other gas-system components.
Will I receive a firm price before work begins?
We provide a property-specific quote after confirming the fireplace count, condition, and access. There is no fixed price advertised here. Additional work requires your approval.
Does cleaning certify the fireplace or chimney as safe?
No. Sweeping and an accessible visual review are not a structural certification or a substitute for a separately specified inspection. We explain the limits of the visit and any concerns observed.
