Chimney Sweep & Inspection
Even in Florida, a fireplace that's used only a few times a year collects soot, creosote and the occasional nest. We sweep it clean and check that it's safe.
Quick answer
Fortex Air Vent Cleaning Service sweeps and inspects chimneys for homes in Port St. Lucie, Stuart, Palm City and nearby Treasure Coast cities, removing soot and creosote and checking the cap, crown and damper. Call (772) 677-8038.
What our chimney sweep includes
- Brush-and-vacuum sweeping of the flue, smoke chamber and firebox, without mess in your home.
- Creosote removal. Creosote is the main cause of chimney fires.
- Inspection of the flue, damper, cap, crown and flashing, with photos.
- Nest and debris removal. Birds and animals often move into chimneys that sit unused.
Chimney repair and restoration
We repair and replace damaged chimney caps, crowns, dampers and flashing to stop leaks and keep rain and animals out. If we find damage that needs a masonry specialist, we'll tell you.
How often to sweep a chimney
Once a year if you use the fireplace, or before the first fire of the season if it has been sitting unused. Also have it checked after a storm, if you smell smoke when it's not in use, or if you notice water or debris in the firebox.

Brandon O.★★★★★
Fortex cleaned our dryer vent quite nicely. There was quite a bit of lint buildup, and they did a thorough job cleaning it out. The dryer seems to be getting better airflow now. Good service and easy to work with.

Had a rough experience with another air duct place last month so I was skeptical. Totally different story with Fortex Air vent Cleaning Service. Got the air quality check done and they were really thorough and they called back right away. …

So here's what happened. I'd been putting off dryer vent cleaning for way too long. Finally got to the point where I couldn't ignore it anymore. Called around to a few air duct places and most either didn't pick up or gave me a vague quote …
