Looking for a Chimney Sweep

[weeks001]

Just had a chimney fire, and at the guidance of better minds (those on this site) I am looking to have a chimney sweep come out and inspect my flue. Does anyone have any recomendations for finding a sweep in North Alabama? Is there anything inparticular I should be mindful of or specific questions I should ak?

Seperatley, I want to start cleaning/sweeping my chimney on a regular basis, if the professional gives th all clear. Can anyone give some guidance to that process, or maybe direct me to a spot where this site gives some instructions on sweeping?
Thanks

www.ncsg.org or www.csia.org. Type in your zip code and a list of sweeps should come up.

thanks for those links begreen....saved them for any future need. even found out some folks that are relatively close nearby. sent the links to a friend that's having problems finding sweeps and installers.
