If you love the warmth and ambiance of a fireplace, there’s one crucial thing you can’t afford to overlook: chimney maintenance. Whether you’re a new homeowner or just gearing up for the colder months, one question always comes up — how much does a chimney sweep actually cost?
At Pro Chimney Sweeping, we believe in full transparency and top-tier service. Let’s break it down for you.
So, What’s the Average Cost of a Chimney Sweep?
In most areas, the cost of a professional chimney sweep ranges from $100 to $300. For a typical home, the sweet spot is usually around $150 to $250. That includes a full sweep, basic safety inspection, and peace of mind knowing your fireplace is ready for use.
Need something more intensive? Whether it’s creosote buildup, minor repairs, or a deeper inspection, more advanced services can run a bit higher — usually $250 to $400+ depending on the complexity.
But here’s the good news: Pro Chimney Sweeping offers affordable, no-surprise pricing tailored to your specific chimney needs.
What Determines the Price?
We keep our pricing competitive, but some factors naturally affect the cost of a chimney sweep:
- Chimney height & design – Tall or hard-to-reach chimneys take more time and care.
- Buildup level – If your chimney hasn’t been cleaned in years (don’t worry — we’ve seen it all), more buildup means more work.
- Animals or blockages – Birds, squirrels, or nests? We’ll handle it safely and professionally.
- Additional services – Need a chimney cap installed or waterproofing? We’ve got you covered with bundled service discounts.
At Pro Chimney Sweeping, we always start with a full assessment — so you’ll know exactly what’s needed and what it costs before we begin.
Why Chimney Cleaning Isn’t Optional
A dirty chimney isn’t just messy — it’s dangerous. Over time, creosote (a sticky, highly flammable residue) builds up and increases the risk of chimney fires. Blockages can cause deadly carbon monoxide to enter your home.
That’s why the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends annual chimney inspections and cleanings as needed. A small investment now can prevent a very costly problem later.
