Common questions

Answers from people who do this every day

See all FAQs →

How often should I have my chimney cleaned?

The National Fire Protection Association recommends an inspection at least once a year. If you burn wood regularly, plan on a cleaning every year too.

How do I know my chimney needs attention?

Watch for a smoky smell, smoke drifting into the room, black flakes in the firebox, a damper that sticks, or water stains near the chimney. Any one of those is worth a call.

Do I need chimney service if I only use a gas fireplace?

Yes. Gas burns cleaner than wood, but the vent still needs a yearly look. Birds nest in gas vents, liners can corrode, and a blocked vent can push carbon monoxide back into the house. A quick annual inspection keeps it safe.

What's the difference between a Level 1, 2 and 3 inspection?

A Level 1 is the yearly check of everything we can see and reach, for a chimney you use the same way every year. A Level 2 adds a camera run through the whole flue and is the right call when you're buying or selling a home, switching fuel types, or after a chimney fire or storm. A Level 3 is rare: it means opening up part of the wall or chimney to reach a hidden problem we already suspect.

Do you give free estimates?

Yes. We'll show you what we find and tell you plainly what needs doing now and what can wait. Call (469) 777-8432 to set one up.
