Mitch McGuire saw the need for a cost effective chimney sweeping service for South Eastern Manitoba. Most chimney services in Winnipeg would not travel outside of the perimeter to sweep at an affordable rate. In 2013, Spiral Chimney Sweeps was born to meet these needs. Spiral Chimney Sweeps takes pride in quality workmanship coupled with a friendly service.
Spiral Chimney Sweeps cleans open fires, chimneys, flues, wood burning stoves, and all other solid fuel appliances.
Why Chimney Sweeping?
There are 3 basic reasons why you should get your chimney swept
To protect your health, Breathing in the fumes from gas or solid fuel fires can cause serious damage to your health and in the worse cases prove fatal. Having your chimney swept will help make sure that the flue is sufficiently clear to allow the dangerous fumes to escape safely out of the chimney.
To avoid chimney fires, Having your chimney swept regularly will drastically reduce the chances of having a chimney fire. Chimney fires can cause property damage the least usually being a cracked chimney pot. Which will need to be replaced and the worst being you could lose your home! Fortunately, the more extreme outcome does not happen very often, but it does happen.
To avoid smoke damage, Each time the fire is used, soot will accumulate up the chimney. Gradually, this will decrease the size of the flue which in turn, will lower the draw of the smoke upwards. If the chimney does not have enough pull, the smoke will enter into the room, not only causing irritation to you, but can also blacken your fireplace or the decoration above.
