Sound familiar?

The challenges every chimney sweep business owner knows.

✕

Seasonal work sneaks up on you

Fall chimney sweep season comes and goes before you've reached out to last year's customers. They book a competitor instead.

✕

Flue and safety notes live in your head

Flue size, liner condition, creosote buildup, cap status — you keep it all in memory and hope you don't forget when you show up next year.

✕

Inspection findings are hard to track

You note cracks, liner damage, and cap issues during an inspection, but the notes live on paper that gets lost before the customer calls back.

✕

Not sure who still owes you

You finish the sweep, say you'll send an invoice, and forget. Weeks later you realize you were never paid.

Quote chimney sweeps and inspections with your own prices

Add line items for chimney sweeps, inspections, creosote removal, cap inspection, and minor repairs — each with your own quantity and unit price. The quote totals itself up so you can send it from your phone.

You can preview the quote as a clean document, send it as a link the customer opens on their phone, and see when it's been viewed or accepted.

Keep flue notes, inspection findings, and track seasonal schedules

Every customer profile stores the flue size, liner type, cap status, inspection findings, and when they were last serviced. When fall comes around, you can see which customers are due and reach out before they book a competitor.

Jobs are grouped by date so you can see today's route and what's coming up this week.

Invoice per visit or bill annual plans upfront

Each invoice can be shared with the customer as a link, so they can review it and pay without you having to chase them down.

A typical fall season with Operio

An illustrative workflow — not a real customer, just how the pieces fit together.

1

September — reach out to last year's clients

You pull up customer profiles and see who had their chimney swept last fall. You send each one a quote for this year's sweep plus inspection.

2

October — quote accepted, schedule the sweep

A customer accepts the quote. You convert it to a scheduled job and add the flue notes from last year's visit.

3

Sweep day — do the work, record findings

You sweep the chimney, inspect the liner and cap, and note the findings in the job. You mark the job complete.

4

Before you leave — send the invoice

You send the invoice from the job page. The customer gets a link and pays by card. You record the payment and note the recommended cap replacement for next year.

Chimney Sweep FAQ

Can I quote chimney sweeps and inspections with my own prices?

Yes. Add each service — sweep, inspection, creosote removal, cap repair — as its own line item with a quantity and price. The quote totals itself up and you can send it as a link.

Can I track which homes need annual service?

Yes. Customer notes and job history show you when each home was last serviced. When fall comes around, you can see which customers are due and reach out before they book a competitor.

Can I store flue and inspection notes per property?

Yes. Every customer has a notes field where you can store flue size, liner type, cap status, inspection findings, and safety notes. The notes carry over to every job for that property.

Can I bill annual maintenance plans upfront?

Yes. You can bill the full year of an annual plan upfront or send an invoice after each visit. Record payments as cash, check, card, or transfer and see which invoices are outstanding at a glance.

Is there a free plan?

Yes — you can start free with no credit card required. When you're ready for more, you can view available plans after signing up. There are no contracts and you can cancel anytime.
