How we prioritise
Active leaks, gas smell, and animal-in-flue jump the queue over cosmetic chimney cleaning work. We text realistic ETAs, not "we'll get to it."
Response windows across Erin
Standard bookings inside Erin: 3–5 business days. Same-day: usually before 2pm if we get the call by 9am. Emergency (water in flue, active leak): 90 minutes on weekdays, 3 hours weekends.
Weekend and holiday coverage
Saturday standard. Sunday and stat holidays are emergency-only with a documented callout fee that's waived if we book the follow-up job.
Common questions
What warranty do you offer on chimney cleaning in Erin?
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.
What if it rains or snows on the booking day?
Roof-side work reschedules to the next dry window at no charge. Interior scopes (firebox, damper, appliance) proceed regardless.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Erin?
Yes. Condo boards in Erin typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
How much does chimney cleaning cost in Erin?
Most Erin jobs land between $215 and $345. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $560. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
Do you need a permit for chimney cleaning in Erin?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Erin. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
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.
Is chimney cleaning covered by home insurance in Erin?
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.
Do you offer same-day chimney cleaning in Erin?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Erin for most standard scopes.
