The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA Standard 211) recommends that chimneys, fireplaces, and vents be inspected at least once a year for soundness, freedom from deposits, and correct clearances. Cleaning should be performed whenever 1/8 inch or more of creosote or soot has accumulated.

Creosote is a highly flammable, tar-like byproduct of burning wood. When creosote builds up inside your flue, high temperatures can ignite it, causing an intense chimney fire that can exceed 2,000°F and spread to the roof framing and living areas of your home. Regular sweeping eliminates this primary fire hazard.

No. At Curassow Tail Chimney, we use a strict clean-home guarantee. Our technicians lay down protective drop cloths across your floor and operate industrial-grade HEPA-filtered vacuum containment systems that capture every microscopic particle of dust and soot before it can enter your room.

Key warning signs include smoke puffing back into your room, a strong campfire or asphalt smell when the fireplace is not in use, visible black or glazed buildup on the damper and flue walls, difficulty getting a fire to draft, pieces of clay tile or mortar falling into the firebox, or water dripping inside the hearth.

Miami experiences heavy tropical rains, high humidity, and abundant wildlife. A durable stainless steel chimney cap keeps water from pouring down the flue (which causes rust, mold, and mortar decay) and prevents birds, bats, and raccoons from nesting inside your chimney.

Yes. In addition to traditional masonry and prefabricated wood fireplaces, we inspect and clean gas log fireplaces, pellet stoves, outdoor fire features, and residential dryer vent exhaust ducts to eliminate lint fire hazards and improve appliance efficiency.

A Level 1 inspection is a standard visual evaluation of the readily accessible portions of the chimney and heating appliance. A Level 2 inspection includes a high-definition video camera scan of the entire internal flue liner, required during property sales, after weather events, or when changing fuel types.
