You’ll need these tools and supplies you’ll need for your business to avoid being brushed aside by the competition:

Tools and Supplies Essential for Success:

• Standard Tool Kit: This kit typically contains a wire bush, a polypropylene bush, a smoke chamber brush, an industrial vacuum, and chemical cleaners. These brushes work to thoroughly remove debris inside the chimney, especially creosote, which is the main contributor to chimney fires.
• Powered Air-Purifying Respirator (PAPR): Health should always be a priority. A PAPR is a full-face mask that works to protect the chimney sweeper from exposure to dangerous carcinogens.
• Canvas Drip Cloths: This cloth works to help contain the messy build up that cleaning a chimney often creates. A chimney sweeper should avoid plastic drip clothes, as this material can cause static electricity. The materials being cleaned from the chimney are flammable, which can be dangerous.
• Industrial Grade Chimney Vacuum: The main function of a chimney sweeper’s vacuum is to help prevent the mess and pollutants of the chimney from entering a person’s home or office.
• Inspection Camera: This camera assists chimney sweepers in performing more thorough cleanings. Additionally, it provides evidence to show homeowners what their chimneys looked like before and after a cleaning.
• Ceramic Glass Cleaner: Sweepers need a cleaning agent designed for the type of chimney you’ll be cleaning. Some glass cleaners leave behind a layer of silicone, which prevents future build up.
• Masonry Sealant: There are many different types of chimneys. Masonry chimneys tend to deteriorate when exposed to moisture, but using a sealant helps prevent further damage to the home.
• Field Service Software: RazorSync’s field service app helps you optimize your workload by scheduling jobs, managing inventory and techs in the field, and estimating future jobs.
• Mobile Credit Card Reader: A handy tool like a mobile card reader can quickly simplify and speed up the payment process for you and your customers, eliminating the need for separate paper invoicing.
