All the best,
Let There Be Light Chimney Sweep
Uh oh, the chimney sweeping busy season is here already.
Fall is approaching fast and you may have forgotten to get your chimney serviced again. Now is the time to get your chimney ready for the burning season and to try and beat the crushing Fall rush, however, the tidal wave of phone calls appears to have started a little earlier than last year.
The days of freezing toes and biting snows will be upon us before we're ready for them. Remember how much fun it was last year? Don't put yourself in the situation, when you're ready to light a fire in the fireplace, to coldly realize that you didn't get your chimney swept.
Oh well, there's always the attitude that "it won't happen to me." I had a customer tell me once, that when his hostile chimney fire started, he just stood in the corner and bit his fingernails, hoping that the whole house wouldn't burn down. He was lucky.
The people that come in the shiny red trucks with the long ladders are very nice, but it is better not to meet them on their terms.
"Fire is only your friend if you're a harsh taskmaster over it." -John Wisnewski
As always, sweepings and inspections are a necessary part in getting or keeping your chimney in good condition and in working order. Remember, clean chimneys don't catch fire.
We continue to wish you and yours a blessed season, as the year 2021 is rolling along.
Sweepingly yours,
John Wisnewski
