How often does a Hobart chimney need a sweep?
If you burn wood regularly through a Pacific Northwest winter, plan on a sweep and inspection once a year, usually before the rainy season sets in. Homes that use their fireplace only occasionally can often go a bit longer, but the damp Seattle-area climate makes yearly checks a smart habit. Moisture in the air speeds up creosote buildup and can hide rust or cracking in a cap or crown that would otherwise go unnoticed until it becomes a bigger repair.
What does the $99 chimney sweep and inspection cover?
- Full sweep to clear soot and creosote from the flue
- Check of the flue liner for damage or blockage
- Inspection of the firebox and damper operation
- Look at the chimney cap and crown for cracks, rust, or wear
- Clear explanation of any findings, with pricing given before extra work starts
You will know exactly what your chimney needs and what anything beyond the base sweep would cost, before we touch a tool.
How does booking work for Hobart homeowners?
Book online and pick a day plus a 3-hour arrival window that fits your schedule. Our office will call or text to confirm the appointment, and the technician calls about 30 minutes before arrival so you are not stuck waiting around all day. It is a straightforward process built for homeowners who want a clear plan, not a guessing game.
Why does Northwest weather matter for your chimney?
Hobart sits about 20 miles from downtown Seattle, and like the rest of the metro area it gets a long wet season each year. Constant moisture works against masonry and metal chimney parts alike, encouraging rust on caps, moss and staining on crowns, and slower drying of creosote inside the flue. A yearly inspection catches these weather-driven issues while they are still small and inexpensive to fix.

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

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
