Smoke Rolls Back Into the Room
A flue narrowed by creosote or blocked by a nest can't pull smoke up. If your room hazes over when you light a fire, the chimney is telling you it's full.

Step 1 — Know the Signs
Three Signs Your Chimney Is Overdue for a Sweep
Creosote builds quietly. It coats the flue a little more with every fire until the chimney stops drawing properly — and until one hot enough fire sets it alight. These are the warnings homeowners notice first.
Black, Tarry or Flaky Buildup
Shine a light up the flue. Crusty black flakes or shiny tar on the walls is creosote — the single biggest cause of chimney fires in American homes.
Campfire Smell or Animal Noises
A strong smoky odor on humid days means creosote is soaking up moisture. Scratching or chirping means something has moved into your flue.
Recognize any of these? A $99 sweep clears it — and we'll show you the photos.

Step 2 — What's Included
Everything in a Captain Chimney Sweep
One flat price covers the whole system — not just the part you can see from the living room.
Full Flue Sweep
Rotary brushes and rods take the flue back to bare liner, removing soot, creosote and glaze buildup top to bottom.
Firebox & Smoke Shelf Clean
The firebox, smoke shelf and smoke chamber are cleared of ash and debris — the areas most sweeps skip.
Damper & Draft Check
We test the damper for movement and seal, and verify the chimney draws properly before we leave.
Cap & Crown Look-Over
While we're on the roof we check the cap, crown and flashing for the damage that turns into leaks.
Liner Condition Report
Cracks, gaps and deterioration in the liner are photographed and explained — no scare tactics, just evidence.
Written Findings
You get a clear summary of what we cleaned, what's in good shape and what (if anything) needs attention.

FAQs
Chimney Sweep Questions
Ask us anything before you book — including whether you actually need the service yet. We'll tell you straight.
(682) 217-3577A standard chimney sweep is a flat $99. If you'd like the flue documented in detail at the same visit, a standard inspection is $59 and a full Level 2 camera inspection is $79. You know the price before we arrive — there are no travel fees or add-ons.
Once a year for any chimney that gets used, and more often if you burn wood most days through the winter. Gas fireplaces still need an annual check — blockages, animal nests and liner damage happen whether you burn wood or not.
Most sweeps take 60 to 90 minutes from the moment we lay down drop cloths to the final walkthrough. Heavy creosote or glaze buildup can take longer, and we tell you before we start if that's the case.
No. We seal the fireplace opening, cover the hearth and surrounding floor, and run a HEPA vacuum throughout the job. Soot is captured at the source, and we vacuum the area again before we leave.
Creosote is the tar-like residue left behind when wood smoke cools in the flue. It is highly flammable, and a thick enough layer can ignite into a chimney fire that spreads to the structure. Sweeping removes it — that's the whole point of the service.
Sweeping cleans; inspecting tells you the condition of the liner, crown, cap and damper. Most homeowners book both once a year, and we bundle them so you're not paying for two separate visits.
