Chimney Sweep in Hollywood, FL

Best Chimney Sweep offers chimney sweep service in Hollywood, FL. Hollywood has far more detached houses than its coastal neighbours, and many of them are old enough that the chimney deserves a careful look before a fire is lit.

Chimney sweeping in Hollywood's older houses

Hollywood is mostly a city of houses. Around 43% of its homes are detached single-family houses, and more than a quarter were built before 1960. Another large share went up between 1960 and 1979. A masonry chimney on a house that age may have mortar joints, a crown or a flue lining that has aged along with it.

South Florida needs very little heating, so a fireplace here often sits unused for long stretches. That makes the first fire after a long gap the one to plan for. Soot, old creosote, leaves and nesting material can all build up in a flue that nobody has looked at in a while.

Some of the oldest neighbourhoods are protected. The City of Hollywood runs four historic districts: the Historic Hollywood Business District, Harrison/Tyler, Beach, and the Historic Hollywood Lakes Multiple Resource District. Exterior changes in those districts go through the city's Certificate of Appropriateness and historic-district permit process, so check with the city before planning visible work such as a new cap or crown.
