I just paid my chimney guy to sweep it out. $95 to have it cleaned. He takes the cap off, cleans it thoroughly, and then cleans the entire chimney (27'), and then comes inside and cleans the pipes there as well. Good guy, and not a bad deal at all. He was here for an hour and a half. I had creosote this year. I usually do not have any of that. Chimney guy said he has seen more creosote this year than he has seen in a really long time. Even in peoples chimneys who burn well seasoned wood and don't usually have much in there chimney.
Has anyone else experienced this? He believes the weather conditions are creating a perfect enviornment for it. Warm temperatures, humidity off and on, etc. I feel better now that I got it cleaned out. Have a close look at your chimneys. Top to bottom. The top of mine was the worst. Stay safe.
And yes. :roll: I know. Eventually, I will be adding more storage. :lol: A few years from now when I can afford it! That will be nice, trying to get that past the wife! :lol: Especially since I just bought a nice used 4wd Kubota L3710 with a loader and backhoe! :ahhh: :lol: Have a good one guys.
