Stop the busywork
Run your chimney business without the spreadsheets
Most chimney shops are small crews running sweeps, inspections, and repairs. When billing and tech hours live in spreadsheets, invoices slip and cash comes in slow.
- Quote sweeps by hand
- Wait on mailed checks
- Tech hours on paper
- Job profit a guess
- Quote and invoice in seconds
- Card and ACH online
- Tech time by job
- Profit on every job
Werx gets chimney pros out of spreadsheets. Quote, invoice every job, take payment, and track tech time in one app.
The money side of a chimney business for $49 a month
Construction billing and job costing platforms publish entry prices from $149 to $599 a month, with per-user fees up to $20 and features like job costing often gated to higher tiers (as of July 2026). Werx takes the opposite approach: flat plans from $49 a month, every feature on every plan, and users are $6.
For a chimney shop, that is less than one sweep a month to run the entire office side. See pricing for the full breakdown, or compare Werx to the platforms you are looking at.
- Every feature on every plan, from day one
- Quotes, invoicing, payments, and job costing included
- Users are $6 a month, time-only users $4, no caps
- No contracts, 14-day free trial, no credit card
Where chimney businesses lose time and money
Most lost margin hides in billing and tech time. Here is where it slips, and how Werx catches it.
Missed invoices
Busy season jobs add up and some never get billed. Invoice each one fast so none slip through.
Invoicing and paymentsChasing checks
Waiting on mailed checks slows your cash. Let customers pay by card or ACH online.
Online paymentsSlow quotes lose jobs
A late quote loses the repair. Build clean quotes fast and send them for online approval.
EstimatesNo profit picture
Without job costs, you cannot tell which jobs make money. Track cost and profit per job.

Three fall months carry most of the year
Chimney work does not spread evenly across the calendar. The first cold snap fills the phone, and the season you have from September to November decides the whole year. A simplified year for a two-tech shop:
| Season | Sweeps and inspections | Avg ticket | Revenue | Share of year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sep to Nov | 300 | $260 | $78,000 | 58% |
| Dec to Feb | 140 | $260 | $36,400 | 27% |
| Mar to Aug | 80 | $260 | $20,800 | 15% |
| Full year | 520 | $260 | $135,200 | 100% |
The math checks: 300 jobs at $260 is $78,000, and $78,000 of $135,200 is 58 percent of the year earned in three months. That fall pace is about seven times the off-season's, and it is exactly when paperwork slips. An October job that never gets invoiced does not get caught in November, because November is busier still. And every fall invoice that pays slow squeezes your winter cash. Our late fee calculator shows what those slow payers cost and what a fair late fee looks like.
A quote and invoice your customer can approve and pay online
Your customer opens a clean, branded quote or invoice. They approve or pay in a couple of taps. You see when they open it, so nothing stalls.

Read the guideWhat is chimney sweep software?
Chimney sweep software is an office tool that handles quotes, invoicing, payments, and job costs for chimney cleaning and repair companies. It replaces paper and spreadsheets for the money side of the business.
It is a small-shop trade inside a bigger category. The Census Bureau's 2023 County Business Patterns counts 18,069 establishments in other services to buildings and dwellings, the industry group that includes chimney sweeps. Most are a truck and a couple of techs, with nobody in the office to chase paperwork, which is why the billing has to run itself.
Werx is built for service work. Quote a sweep or repair, send it for online approval, and turn the won job into an invoice. Take payment online, track tech time from the field, and see job costs on every job.
You quote, bill, and get paid from one place, then sync it all to QuickBooks.
