How much does a chimney sweep cost in Bunk Foss?
A standard chimney sweep and inspection starts at $99. That covers a full cleaning of the flue along with a check of the firebox, damper, cap and crown. If we find anything beyond a routine cleaning, such as a damaged liner or a cracked crown, we explain exactly what it is and give you a price before any extra work begins. You will never be surprised by a bill.
What does a chimney sweep and inspection actually include?
- Cleaning of the flue to remove soot and creosote buildup
- Check of the firebox for cracks or loose mortar
- Test of the damper to confirm it opens and closes properly
- Look at the cap and crown for water intrusion or wear
- Clear explanation and pricing for any repair work before we start
Why is regular chimney maintenance important in Western Washington?
Bunk Foss sits in a part of the Seattle area that sees long, wet winters. That moisture is tough on chimneys. Rain and condensation work their way into masonry and metal caps, and homes that rely on wood stoves or fireplaces through the cold months build up creosote faster than drier climates. A chimney that isn't swept regularly is more likely to develop blockages, liner damage, or even chimney fires. An annual sweep and inspection is the simplest way to catch small problems, like a worn crown or a loose cap, before they turn into expensive repairs.

Frequently asked questions
How often should I get my chimney swept?
Most homes need a sweep and inspection once a year. If you burn wood heavily through the winter, twice a year is a good idea to keep creosote from building up.
Do you service gas fireplaces as well as wood-burning ones?
Chimney sweeps and inspections generally cover wood-burning fireplaces and stoves, along with checking vent paths that gas appliances may share. We can go over what your specific setup needs when we book your appointment.
What happens if you find a problem during the inspection?
We walk you through exactly what we found, whether it's a cracked crown, a damaged liner, or something else, and give you a clear price. Nothing extra gets done until you say go ahead.
How do I schedule a visit in Bunk Foss?
Book online by choosing a day and a 3-hour arrival window. Our office confirms by call or text, and the technician calls about 30 minutes ahead so you're not left waiting around.
When was the last time you cleaned your Chimney?
Over 25,000 chimney fires in the U.S. last year were responsible for over $120 million in property damage. Chimney fires can quickly spread into house fires in a relatively short period of time.
Top 3 Reasons to Sweep your Chimney
The importance of yearly chimney inspections and sweepings cannot be understated, as they are the one true way to minimize the likelihood of a chimney fire sparking in the first place. The fact is that clean chimneys simply don’t catch fire.
- Prevent Chimney Fires
- Protect Your Health
Breathing the fumes from gas or solid fuel fires can be dangerous—or even fatal. - Avoid Smoke Damage
If a chimney is not cleaned regularly, soot will accumulate around the flue. This makes it difficult for the flue to draw the smoke upwards and can cause the smoke to enter your room. This soot will leave a black film around your hearth and soil any furniture, carpeting, or nearby decor. Smoke can also leave black stains around your chimney, which can be difficult or sometimes impossible to remove.
What Degree of Creosote is in Your Chimney?
A buildup of creosote is the main reason why it’s important to have your chimney cleaned and inspected annually, but did you know that there are three degrees, or stages, of creosote?
Soot: While not dangerous, soot is flammable and spreads easily, leaving dirt stains in your home and potentially causing respiratory illnesses.
Creosote flakes: If soot isn’t addressed in a timely manner, over time it can morph into larger flakes, which are highly flammable and more difficult to remove.
Tar creosote: Severe disrepair. At this stage, the creosote coalesces to form a thick, extremely flammable paste along the walls of the chimney. The tar releases gasses, which remain in the chimney flue until a fire is lit. At that point, the gasses as well as the tar will catch fire almost immediately.
Chimney Fire Causes
Factors that increase risk of chimney fires include:
- Failing to have your chimney swept often enough, which can lead to soot buildup
- Blockages such as soot buildup, animal nests, or bits of foliage in your chimney that can restrict air flow
- Burning wet or unseasoned wood, which increases the production of creosote

Professional and polite company-I was able to get in the schedule the following week of my initial request for service. My tech was Conner and he did a great job. Going to have them back to repair the fireplace gas line.

Can't say enough good things about this company. James is extremely easy to communicate with, and is glad to answer any questions. The installers were extremely quick, but did a very quality job, at an affordable price. If I need any future chimney work I will definitely be coming back to Chimney Master Dallas.

I will try to keep this short and sweet! From dealing with the owner about what our needs really were to keeping the communication lines open and his team installing our new Buck Stove.
There is no way I could have been any more pleased with the entire experience. Their team are "First Class" all the way
