I do my chimney maintenance cleanup once a year. Just a quick one, sometimes there is nothing to clean. Just like to make it ready for winter.

Just take care of things around the house. They do not last forever. Once I forgot to clean the chimney, I discovered dead birds, which caused smoke in my entire place. Be sure to do a quick verification each year to prevent such damages. You do not want to break your hearth stoker. I made a big mistake when building my new house. I put tiles by myself and wanted to clean of grout, but I did worse. Imagine how it looked. Not like the new house. Lucky me, I found maid2match.com.au that swept them looking like new shiny tiles. Spend your money smartly, and you will see just the advantages.
