Who uses our services?
Homeowners are by far our largest customer base and account for the majority of our business. Regular inspections and cleanings by homeowners interested in maintaining the safety of their homes have their chimneys inspected and cleaned at a minimum of every other year, although annual cleaning and inspections are recommended.
When homeowners make the decision to switch to gas logs they call Smokey Joe’s to install high quality Rasmussen log sets.
Realtors
Realtors representing buyers use our services to protect their clients from any unforeseen repair costs that may arise after a real estate transaction closes. Home inspectors are neither qualified nor licensed to inspect or repair fireplaces or chimneys, only a certified chimney sweep is trained to inspect, clean and repair a fireplace. It is always in the realtor’s best interest to request an inspection of a fireplace so that any repairs can be made by the seller before escrow closes because afterwards it is the new homeowner that may be faced with thousands of dollars of repairs.
Laundromats
Smokey Joe’s also cleans dryer exhaust vents. A dryer can only ‘push’ air and the lint carried in that air, so far and then the air stops moving and along with it, the lint from drying clothing being carried along on the hot air. As the lint builds up, the dryer slowly stops drying clothing as quickly as it used to because the heated air cannot move out of the vent and builds up back into the dryer. Professionals realize that keeping their dryer vents cleared of the lint allows their machines to run more efficiently as well as preventing disastarous fires because dryer lint is extremely flammable. They don’t want their profits going up in smoke.
Whenever you have to keep resetting the timer on your dryer, have the dryer vent checked for lint buildup.
