Your Chimney is Working Against You (And You Don't Even Know It)
Every fire you light leaves something behind. Smoke rises through the flue, but not everything escapes. Some of it sticks to the walls of your chimney, hardening and building up layer after layer.
That buildup is called creosote. And it’s one of the leading causes of house fires in America. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission reports that creosote buildup causes thousands of chimney fires every single year. Most of them were preventable. A simple cleaning could have stopped them.
Besides creosote buildup, a clogged chimney traps carbon monoxide inside your home. This gas is invisible, odorless, and deadly. The CDC says over 400 Americans die from carbon monoxide poisoning every year. Many of those cases are linked to blocked vents and chimneys.
Your chimney isn’t just a hole in your roof, but a safety system. And when it fails, the consequences are serious. Get a professional Chimney inspection and protect your home now.
A Clean Chimney is a Safe Chimney

We’re not trying to scare you, but trying to get through to you. Because we’ve seen too many families learn this lesson after it was too late. A chimney fire spreads fast and put not just yours, but your family’s safety at risk too.
One phone call and one visit from our professional team is all you need to safeguard your space. So, call Bob’s Chimney today, and let us clean your chimney before the cold sets in. Because your family deserves to sit by the fire without a single worry.

How Often Should Rhode Island Homeowners Schedule a Chimney Sweep?
The National Fire Protection Association says every chimney should be inspected at least once a year. If you burn wood regularly, you probably need a full cleaning annually too.
But here’s something most people miss. Even if you don’t use your fireplace, your chimney still needs attention.
Why? Because chimneys attract problems even when they’re not in use. Animals move in and leave behind droppings. Moisture infiltrates the flue and causes cracks or mold. All of this can create blockages or damage that you won’t notice until it’s too late.
One yearly inspection is the bare minimum for keeping your chimney safe. If you use your fireplace heavily, twice a year is even better.

How Do You Know Your Chimney Needs Cleaning?
Watch out for these warning signs:
1.
Thick black residue inside your firebox. If you can see buildup without even looking up, imagine what’s higher in the flue.
2.
A weird smell coming from your fireplace. Especially when it’s humid outside. That’s old creosote and soot. And it only gets worse.
3.
Smoke filling your living room instead of going up. This often means that some form of debris buildup is blocking the chimney flue.
4.
Your fires don’t burn like they used to. You may spot weak flames, constant smoke or poor draft. These are signs your chimney isn’t pulling air properly.
5.
It’s been over a year since your last cleaning. If you use your fireplace regularly and can’t remember the last sweep, you’re overdue.
Don’t ignore these signs. They’re your chimney asking for help. And the longer you wait, the bigger the risk.
