Hi Iâ??m Mr. Poppins and I started this business 35 years ago. I actually had a fire in my own home and lost everything and by the grace of God nobody was hurt, but I did lose all the little things that you cannot replace like the items with sentimental value. So I started a chimney cleaning business that I have been doing it ever since. After losing everything I realized safety is number one in having a fireplace! I hear the story all the time about it doesnâ??t get cold enough Iâ??ve only used it one or two times in the past couple years itâ??s better to say I had it checked last year or every couple years just to be safe! Remember your family is number one safety should be number one as well!!
