Every fire leaves creosote behind — a combustible residue that coats your chimney lining. When buildup passes 1/8 of an inch, you’re running a real risk of a house fire. A professional sweep removes it completely, and leaves your home exactly as clean as we found it.
How often? The more you use your fireplace, the more often it needs cleaning: gas and oil systems annually, wood-burning fireplaces in heavy use as often as quarterly. Smoky flames or odors in the house are a sign it’s overdue — and most insurance companies won’t cover a chimney-fire claim unless the chimney was swept by trained professionals.
Every job under this roof has its own page — what it includes, what it costs to skip, and the questions everyone asks.
Every fire deposits creosote — a combustible residue — on your chimney lining. Past 1/8 of an inch, you’re carrying a real house-fire risk every time you light up. A professional sweep removes it completely and leaves your home exactly as clean as we found it.
Frequent fires build creosote faster than brushes can handle: it hardens into a glazed, tar-like layer on the flue walls that a standard sweep just polishes. PCR deep cleaning strips it — that’s the difference between cleaning the chimney and grooming it.
Between your damper and your flue sits the smoke chamber — a funnel that turns fire into draft. It collects the heaviest soot in the entire system, and because you can’t see it, it almost never gets cleaned. That’s a problem worth fixing.
Scratching above the fireplace at 2 AM means somebody moved in. Raccoons and chimney swifts treat an uncapped Texas flue like a hollow tree — and while they’re in there, they block your airflow, push combustion gases back into the house, and pile up nesting material that burns.
A nest in your flue is kindling stacked directly above your fireplace — twigs, dried grass, and fur parked in the hottest airstream in the house. It also chokes the draft that keeps carbon monoxide moving out instead of in.

Look up past the damper: buildup thicker than 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch means it’s time. Smoky flames, smells in the room, or flakes dropping when the damper moves are all signs the lining is overdue for a sweep.
No. We take the greatest care to ensure all soot and dirt is contained — drop cloths, a HEPA vacuum, and a final walk-through, every visit.
Chimney sweeping is a dangerous job that needs real proficiency — and a professional cleaning doubles as a structural check of the firebox, flue, and cap. Most insurers also require professional sweeping records to cover a chimney-fire claim.
