Get a Deeper Chimney Clean With Colair

Colair uses high-powered commercial equipment originally built for large duct systems, giving us far more suction than the basic vacuums and hand tools most chimney sweeps bring. That extra power pulls heavier soot and creosote from deeper inside the flue, while keeping the mess out of your home.

Chimney Cleaning In Kanata

Many Kanata homes from the 1970s to the 1990s were built with wood-burning fireplaces, and a lot of them still get used every winter. Newer homes are more likely to have gas, but plenty of Kanata families still burn wood.

Every fire leaves creosote on the inside of the flue. We clean the full length of the chimney with rotary brushes and air whips while our truck-mounted vacuum pulls the soot outside, so it doesn't end up in your living room.

Neighbourhoods we serve in Kanata:

  • Beaverbrook
  • Glen Cairn
  • Katimavik-Hazeldean
  • Bridlewood
  • Kanata Lakes
  • Morgan's Grant
  • Brookside
  • Emerald Meadows
  • Kanata North
  • Blackstone
  • Arcadia

What We See In Kanata Homes

1970s To 1990s Fireplaces

Glen Cairn, Bridlewood, Katimavik

Original masonry fireplaces from this era have often seen decades of fires. If they haven't been swept regularly, creosote can be thick in the upper flue.

Fireplaces Used Every Winter

Kanata Lakes, Morgan's Grant

Regular use builds creosote fast, especially with damp wood or slow, smoky fires. An annual cleaning before the season is the safe routine.

Original Kanata Homes

Beaverbrook

Older chimneys can have worn caps and heavy buildup. We clean the flue and let you know if we see anything that needs a closer look.

See The Difference A
Deep Clean
Makes

Creosote and soot coat the inside of your flue every time you light a fire. Our air whips and rotary brushes scrub the full length of the chimney while constant suction carries the debris away, so you get a truly clean flue, not just a quick sweep.

Creosote buildup is highly flammable and one of the leading causes of chimney fires. A proper chimney cleaning eliminates dangerous buildup and helps keep your home and family safer.

The Process

Our Chimney Cleaning Step-by-Step

1

Inspection & Setup

We inspect the firebox and flue and set up protective coverings before starting work.

2

Creosote & Soot Removal

Specialized brushes and rotary tools remove creosote and soot buildup from the full length of the flue.

3

Flue & Damper Check

We check the flue liner and damper for damage, blockages, or debris that could affect safe venting.

4

Chimney Cap Inspection

The chimney cap and crown are checked to confirm animals, debris, and weather aren't getting inside.

5

Final Cleanup

Work areas are cleaned up and swept debris is removed before we leave your home.

When Should I Clean My Chimney

Top 4 Signs It's Time To Clean Your Chimney

Smoke backing up into the room from a fireplace

Smoke Backing Up Into The Room

Smoke that doesn't draft properly up the chimney can point to a blockage or buildup issue.

Heavily sooted firebox interior from creosote buildup

Visible Soot Or Creosote Around The Firebox

Dark, flaky, or tar-like residue near the firebox opening is a sign buildup has accumulated.

Homeowner struggling to start a fire with smoke filling the room

Reduced Draft Or Difficulty Starting A Fire

A fire that struggles to catch or draft properly can mean airflow is restricted higher up the flue.

Calendar reminder for annual chimney cleaning

It's Been A Year Since Your Last Sweep

Most fire-safety authorities recommend an annual inspection and cleaning for regularly used fireplaces.
