The most common mistake people make before calling us is waiting until they notice a problem, like smoke backing up into their home. Many folks in Fort Worth, Texas, assume their chimney is fine as long as they don't see visible damage. However, creosote, a byproduct of burning wood, builds up inside your chimney flue over time. This buildup is flammable and significantly increases your risk of a chimney fire. Licensed pros will inspect your flue for this buildup, as well as any blockages from nests or debris. They'll then use specialized tools to remove the creosote and ensure your chimney is clear. This process is crucial for safe operation of your fireplace or wood stove. When the crew arrives, they typically lay down drop cloths to protect your flooring and furnishings. They'll inspect the damper and the firebox, checking for cracks or damage. The main cleaning involves using brushes and rods to scrub the inside of the flue. They often use a high-powered vacuum to capture any soot and debris. A final inspection ensures all work is done thoroughly. Don't wait for a warning sign; call us today for a free estimate and peace of mind.
The final cost for your chimney service depends on a few specific factors.

If there are structural blockages like nests or excessive debris that require extra labor, that will also adjust the estimate. We avoid hidden fees, but every setup is unique, so we evaluate the condition of your liner and firebox upon inspection.
