Willow Grove, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/10/2014 -- With the weather cooling down, and the heaters turned on, many homeowners are gathering the firewood and utilizing their fireplaces. The masonry experts at Gannon Chimney Repair Inc. recommend that homeowners have their chimney cleaned after every cord of wood, or at least once per year. Before fires are burned for a comfortable environment, the company is announcing their services for chimney sweeps and cleaning this November.

Through the humid summers and early fall, there are many types of debris—living or not—that accumulate in the chimney. Debris can be in the form of creosote or soot, or nests and insects that can block the flue pipe. When the flue pipe is blocked, the risk for carbon monoxide entering the house increases as the smoke has no place to escape. Their thorough and efficient process for chimney cleaning and repair in Montgomery County includes testing the drafts to ensure the chimney and fireplace are operable and safe.

To provide their clients with an optimal customer service experience, Gannon Chimney Repair Inc. will travel to the home to offer a free estimate for the service. Depending on the type of chimney, an inspection can reveal chips and cracks in the material, leaving the home susceptible to water damage. To avoid leaks and costly damage, the experts will recommend chimney waterproofing in Montgomery County to provide a safe home environment through the winter.

It’s the busiest time of year for the professionals at Gannon Chimney Repair Inc., so be sure to schedule a cleaning as soon as possible. It is important to ensure the chimney and flue are acting properly as residents of the greater Philadelphia area prepare for a grueling winter. Whether general maintenance and cleaning or an emergency service, please call today.
