All manufacturers of fireplaces, chimneys, and vents require annual sweeping, cleaning, and inspection. The fire departments across America refer to the NFPA 211 (the code book for solid fuel-burning appliances). This code requires the annual inspection and cleaning of all fireplaces, wood stoves, pellet stoves, and chimneys.
These annual chimney sweeps and inspections will lessen the risk of a chimney fire. At Midtown, we take precautions to ensure we thoroughly inspect your fireplace, wood stove, pellet stove as well as your connector pipe and chimney.

What We Do When We Sweep the Flue
Our professional technicians sweep with efficiency, thoroughness, and courtesy. They will recommend the products and services you might need to keep your fireplace, chimney, or dryer vent functioning safely and efficiently. We will use drop cloths to protect the floor, a bag for their hand tools, and our HEPA dust-extractor vacuum on wheels. All our technicians wear professional uniforms and abide by the CCP Code of Ethics for treating all customers pleasantly and fairly.
After an initial inspection and setup of tools in the home, the technician will study the chimney’s exterior and determine the best way it should be cleaned. Then he will return inside the home and clean the interior of the fireplace or stove. There will be another outdoor inspection done following the interior cleaning. Finally, he will present an evaluation on paper to the client, confirming details of the inspection and sweeping process. This written invoice will be signed and will disclose all the important information and recommendations about the fireplace.
It’s our desire and mission to help you take care of your home and fireplace as if they were our own.
