Fireplace Cleaning Sydney – The Chimney Guys
Smoke Backing Up? Soot Falling Into the Firebox? Strange Smells?
If your chimney hasn’t been cleaned in over a year, creosote and soot could be blocking airflow — increasing the risk of house fires or carbon monoxide buildup. Don’t leave it until it’s too late.
How Much Does Fireplace Cleaning Cost in Sydney?
A full fireplace and chimney clean starts from $349 + GST. You get the firebox and the flue cleaned on the same visit, with a camera check before you light the next fire.

Your questions answered
How much does fireplace cleaning cost in Sydney?
Fireplace and chimney cleaning starts from $349 + GST ($383.90 including GST). That covers the firebox cleaned and ash removed, the flue swept from top to bottom, a camera inspection inside the chimney and a draught test. The price is the same starting point for an open fireplace or a wood heater, and you get your exact price before any work starts.
How often should I have my fireplace cleaned?
Once a year for most homes, even if you only light it now and then. The NSW EPA advises to clean the chimney every year to prevent creosote build-up. If you use your fireplace or wood heater almost every day through winter, it may need cleaning more often.
Will there be a mess inside the house?
No. Floors and furniture near the fireplace are covered before we start and the soot is contained, so the room is left clean.
Can you clean both wood heaters and open fireplaces?
Yes. We clean open wood fireplaces and wood or slow-combustion heaters with a flue, with the same starting price of $349 + GST.
What does the camera inspection show?
A camera inside the chimney shows soot and creosote left in the flue, bird nests, leaves and other blockages, and cracks or damage you can't see from the fireplace. It is included in every clean.
Do I need to be home for the service?
Yes, someone should be there to give access to the fireplace. It also lets the technician show you what the camera found and explain the draught test.
Is chimney sweeping really necessary in Sydney’s climate?
Yes. Sydney's mild climate doesn't stop soot and creosote building up whenever you burn wood, and an unused chimney can collect nests and debris. A yearly clean keeps the flue clear before the cooler months.
Do you service gas fireplaces?
No. The Chimney Guys specialises in wood-burning fireplaces only. We do not service gas fireplaces or gas appliances.
How long does a fireplace clean take?
Most jobs take between 45 and 120 minutes depending on the size and condition of the system.
