Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.
Chimney Company in Spring, TX
Spring, TX homeowners call us when a fireplace that worked fine last winter starts smoking into the living room, or when they notice a rust-colored stain bleeding through brick. Most of the chimneys we service here were built between the 1980s and early 2000s, and a lot of them have prefabricated metal flue liners that were never meant to go 30 years without attention. The humidity does real work on those systems. We’ll walk you through exactly what’s going on, what it costs, and whether it can wait. Call Nathan and the team at (903) 961-6496 and you’ll talk to a person, not a phone tree.
Why Spring Homes Are Different
Spring’s housing stock grew in spurts. You’ll see 1970s ranch-style homes with true masonry fireplaces alongside 1990s and 2000s subdivisions with zero-clearance factory-built units and metal chimneys. Those factory-built systems are the ones that keep us busy. The galvanized steel caps original to many east Spring homes rust through within about a decade, and then rain, squirrels, and leaves get in. Homeowners usually describe the result as “it smells like a dead animal” or “it smokes a little now.” Both often trace back to a rusted cap and a blocked flue.
The other thing we see a lot: creosote that builds up faster than expected. Spring’s humid subtropical climate means fires burn cooler and dirtier because homeowners only light them a handful of times each winter. A fire that never gets hot enough sends more unburned particles up the flue, where they stick. High humidity also feeds mold and mildew inside flues that sit unused from March to November. A chimney that gets swept once a year has a much easier time of it than one that gets ignored for five.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Spring Services
Most Spring calls start with one of these three jobs. Each has its own page with local pricing, what the appointment looks like, and the guarantee in writing.
Chimney Sweep in Spring
A proper sweep in Spring starts with checking the cap and crown, then removing creosote, debris, and any nesting material from the flue and smoke chamber. On factory-built systems we pay extra attention to corroded metal components and the joints where sections connect, because that’s where moisture problems show up first. Expect us to lay down drop cloths, run a HEPA-filtered vacuum, and leave the hearth cleaner than we found it. Full details, including price ranges and what to expect on appointment day, are on the Chimney Sweep in Spring page.
Chimney Inspection in Spring
An inspection in Spring typically starts because a home is changing hands, or because the homeowner just realized the chimney hasn’t been looked at since the house was built. We inspect the flue with a video camera and document everything, so you see the condition with your own eyes rather than taking our word for it. On prefabricated chimneys from the 1990s and 2000s, we look specifically for liner separation and rusted chase covers. The Chimney Inspection in Spring page has the specifics.
Fireplace Repair in Spring
Repairs in Spring run from straightforward – replacing a rusted damper or a failed cap – to more involved work like relining a damaged flue or rebuilding a firebox. What we don’t do is recommend a repair you can’t see evidence for. If we say a liner needs replacing, there will be camera footage showing why. Common Spring repairs include replacing rusted chase covers, repairing cracked mortar joints, and addressing water damage around the crown. Read the Fireplace Repair in Spring page for detail.

What pushes cost up in Spring is usually the condition of the original cap and chase. If the galvanized cap rusted through years ago, water has been working on the flue joint seams and the top of the firebox, so a “simple sweep” can legitimately turn into cap and chase cover replacement. That’s why we show you the video before we ask for a dime. Every quote is written down before any work starts, and the invoice matches the quote. Always.

For most standard sweeps, inspections, and cap repairs, no. If we’re replacing a chase cover, relining, or doing masonry repairs that change the exterior appearance, we’ll recommend you check your HOA requirements first. Most HOAs care about visible caps and external color, not the flue interior.
Yes. Those factory-built systems are the majority of what we see in Spring. We inspect and clean them according to the manufacturer’s listed standards, and we repair them with components from the original manufacturer or recognized aftermarket brands, never with hardware-store improvisation.

What Spring Customers Say
"We smelled something off every time the heat kicked on. Turned out to be debris in the flue. He cleared it and the smell was gone. Patient explaining it all to a first timer like me."
- Annette Prosser"Booked a sweep and inspection before winter. On time, polite, and he taped off the area so there wasn't a speck of soot anywhere after. Told me exactly what the guarantee covered."
- Rachel Montoya"Had them out for the yearly sweep before we start burning. He put down a drop cloth, swept it clean, and actually showed me the inside of the flue on a little camera. No mess, no surprises on the bill."
