Chimney Sweep & Cleaning in Rancho Cordova, CA

Chimney Sweep & Cleaning for Rancho Cordova Homeowners

Rancho Cordova splits cleanly along Sunrise Boulevard for our purposes. West of it, the older Cordova Meadows and Mather-adjacent neighborhoods are largely 1950s and 1960s construction, much of it originally built as housing connected to Mather Field, with compact masonry fireplaces and clay tile flues that are now well past sixty years old. East of Sunrise, Anatolia and the Sunridge developments are twenty-first century builds running factory-built fireplaces and direct-vent gas appliances. The older west side generates most of our masonry repair and relining work in this city, while the newer east side is mostly annual inspections, chase cover work, and dryer vent cleaning. Rancho Cordova sits in Sacramento County, so the winter Check Before You Burn restrictions apply here as well. We cover both 95670 and 95742.

Sharp divide at Sunrise Boulevard: 1950s-1960s Mather-era masonry to the west, 2000s-onward factory-built and direct-vent systems to the east. Masonry relining is concentrated in the older western neighborhoods.

Every time you burn wood, a tar-like substance called creosote coats the inside of your chimney. Left unchecked, creosote is highly flammable and is the leading cause of chimney fires. A professional sweep removes this buildup along with soot, ash, and any nesting debris, restoring proper draft and letting smoke and toxic gases exit your home the way they should. Regular cleaning is the single most important thing you can do to keep your family safe from chimney fires and carbon monoxide.
