Looking for a chimney sweep in Fife, WA?
The Chimney Xpert offers a chimney sweep and inspection in Fife starting at $99. Fife sits about 26 miles from downtown Seattle, and we run our Fife visits as part of our regular Seattle area routes, so scheduling is straightforward even though we're not based in town.
Booking happens online. You pick a day and a three hour arrival window, and our office calls or texts to confirm the appointment ahead of time. On the day of the visit, your technician calls about 30 minutes before arriving so you're not stuck waiting around all morning.
What does a $99 chimney sweep and inspection include?
- A full sweep of the flue to clear creosote and debris buildup
- A check of the firebox and damper for cracks, rust, or parts that no longer seal well
- A look at the cap and crown for gaps, cracks, or signs of water getting in
- A straightforward explanation of anything we find, with any extra work priced and explained before it starts
Have we done chimney work in Fife before?
Yes. Over the past couple of years we've completed chimney work in Fife, including two sweep and inspection visits, a cap replacement, a crown rebuild, counter flashing work, a damper repair, and replacement of a couple of flue tiles. We've also worked on a pellet stove venting system in town. Our first Fife job was in September 2025 and our most recent was in July 2026, and we keep coming back to handle both routine maintenance and repair work here.
Why does Fife's climate matter for chimney upkeep?
Fife sits in the Puget Sound lowlands, where wet winters and long stretches of rain are just part of living here. Moisture is one of the toughest things on a chimney. Water that gets past a cracked crown or a worn cap can soak into the flue liner, firebox, or the masonry itself, and that kind of damage tends to get worse and more expensive the longer it sits unaddressed. A cap and crown in solid condition keep rain out from the top, while good flashing at the roofline keeps water from working its way down into the structure. Routine sweeps and inspections are what catch these problems while they're still small, simple fixes instead of full rebuilds.

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

David was prompt and very professional. He inspected and cleaned the fireplace & went over everything that he did and provided valuable information. Price was better that competitor's. I will definitely continue to do business with this company.
Very pleased with the professionalism and promptness of service. Chad was very helpful and courteous and the work was done quickly and efficiently at significantly less cost than the first quote we received. Happy to recommend Chimney Xpert.
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
