Fire-Safe Chimney Sweeps
About
Fire-Safe Chimney Sweeps is owned and operated by Gary Clift and sons, Gary Jr. and Chris. Our great-great-grandfather began the Clift family's first chimney cleaning business in the late 1800s. In fact, our oldest known receipt is dated 1939, found after we lettered our current truck. As time and technology have evolved, the Clift family has passed down their chimney construction, repair, and maintenance expertise generation after generation. Our owner, Gary Clift, started as a laborer and went through a long apprenticeship program to become a Master Stonemason. (The photo below is of Gary, Sr. at Arundel Vocational Tech in 1976.) So unlike most amateur chimney sweepers, Gary literally knows everything about your chimney from the ground up.
