Once you've established your own chimney sweep service, you can advance by making more connections in the community and expanding your client base. If the amount of work warrants it, you may choose to hire assistants and office staff. With a successful business, you can also afford the best equipment and the newest tools. You should attend the seminars and conferences offered by the Chimney Safety Institute of America to learn about the advances in technology for the industry. You can also grow your business by expanding the services offered. Some sweeps move into other areas of home repair, or they offer chimney and fireplace products for sale.
