The Fire Smart Sweep Program for 2018 will be a bit different this year.
To start with we have a new provider:
Chris Worthing.
Chris has Work Safe and is fully insured.
Please note Chris Worthing is NOT providing window, skylight, roof or gutter cleaning as part of the Fire Smart Program, but you may be able to negotiate that with him SEPARATELY from the Fire Smart Program.
Chris also services gas appliances but again that is not part of the Fire Smart Sweep Program.
Unlike the past few years, Chris provides his own boat to and from the Island and will not require hiring of the Water Taxi, so you will not have to pay a portion of the total transportation cost to and fro.
There are some fee changes however.
Inspections are now $50 +GST per property (no free inspections).
If a chimney cleaning is required then that will cost $50 per flue on top of the inspection fee. That is inspection plus one flue costs $100, inspection plus 2 flues costs $150 etc. +GST
If a WETT certificate is required that will cost $65 on top of the inspection fee. That is inspection plus WETT certificate costs $115 + GST
You or a designate need to be present when the inspection or service takes place.
Please refer to the attached document for general information on what WETT is, as this is a commonly asked question.
Payment is by cheque or cash ONLY directly to Chris at the time of service.
I will try my best to book your first choice of date and morning or afternoon, and provide you with a schedule shortly after June 1, 2018
If there is sufficient demand July 4th MIGHT also be available, but for now indicate your availability for July 2 or 3rd only please.
If you have a neighbour or friend on the island who might be interested but does not sign up for bb, please forward this email to them or, if they don’t have email, please let me know their telephone contact and I will try to get them scheduled.
