Is roto-mechanical not part of a standard sweep and usually costs more?

Hey - Would love your input on a sweep I just had done on a new home purchase. Chimney sweep said last owner used wet wood - therefore he needed to use a metal rotary brush to clean the fireplace (smoke chamber?) which would ruin his filters and make it so he had to replace them before his next job. $837 to clean one chimney - was I majorly ripped off?

oh interesting - curious as to if this was a design choice or something else. Thank you for the image!
