Common questions
What warranty do you offer on chimney cleaning in Newmarket?
Five-year written workmanship warranty on materials and labour, transferable to a new homeowner within that window. Manufacturer warranties on any installed products pass through separately.
Are you WETT and WSIB certified?
Yes — WETT SITE-Comprehensive #C-46082, CSIA #12408, and active WSIB #7248194. Certificates emailed on request before the job.
How long does chimney cleaning take in Newmarket?
60–90 min is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
Do you offer same-day chimney cleaning in Newmarket?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Newmarket for most standard scopes.
How much does chimney cleaning cost in Newmarket?
Most Newmarket jobs land between $191 and $305. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $496. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
Do you need a permit for chimney cleaning in Newmarket?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Newmarket. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Newmarket?
Yes. Condo boards in Newmarket typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
Is chimney cleaning covered by home insurance in Newmarket?
Sudden damage (storm, animal, appliance failure) is usually covered minus deductible. Gradual wear generally isn't. A written pro assessment before the claim call materially improves outcomes.
