Need a chimney sweep in Alma, TX?
The Chimney Xpert brings straightforward chimney sweep and inspection service to homeowners in Alma, TX as part of our regular coverage across the Dallas area. A standard sweep and inspection starts at $99, and that visit covers the parts of your system that matter most: a full sweep of the flue, a check of the firebox and damper, and a look at the cap and crown. If we find something that needs more work, we explain it and price it before any of that extra work begins. No surprises, no pressure.
What happens during your chimney inspection?
- Sweep of the flue to clear creosote and debris buildup
- Inspection of the firebox for cracked or damaged brick and mortar
- Check of the damper to confirm it opens, closes, and seals properly
- Review of the chimney cap and crown for gaps, rust, or wear that can let in water or animals
- Clear explanation and pricing on any repairs before we start them
How does booking work in Alma?
Booking is simple. Pick a day that works for you and choose a 3-hour arrival window online. Our office will call or text to confirm the appointment, and on the day of service, your technician calls about 30 minutes ahead so you know exactly when to expect them. There is no need to take an entire day off work or guess when someone will show up.
Why does chimney maintenance matter in the Dallas area?
Alma sits about 38 miles from downtown Dallas, and homes here deal with the same weather swings as the rest of the metro area. Hot, humid summers followed by sudden cold snaps put real stress on brick, mortar, and metal chimney components. Freeze-thaw cycles can widen small cracks in a crown, and heavy spring storms test whether a cap is still doing its job keeping water and debris out. If you use your fireplace or wood stove during the cooler months, creosote buildup is also a real concern after just one burning season. A yearly sweep and inspection is the simplest way to catch these issues early, before they turn into costly repairs or a safety hazard.

When was the last time you cleaned your Chimney?
Over 25,000 chimney fires in the U.S. last year were responsible for over $120 million in property damage. Chimney fires can quickly spread into house fires in a relatively short period of time.
Top 3 Reasons to Sweep your Chimney
The importance of yearly chimney inspections and sweepings cannot be understated, as they are the one true way to minimize the likelihood of a chimney fire sparking in the first place. The fact is that clean chimneys simply don’t catch fire.
- Prevent Chimney Fires
- Protect Your Health
Breathing the fumes from gas or solid fuel fires can be dangerous—or even fatal. - Avoid Smoke Damage
If a chimney is not cleaned regularly, soot will accumulate around the flue. This makes it difficult for the flue to draw the smoke upwards and can cause the smoke to enter your room. This soot will leave a black film around your hearth and soil any furniture, carpeting, or nearby decor. Smoke can also leave black stains around your chimney, which can be difficult or sometimes impossible to remove.



What Degree of Creosote is in Your Chimney?
A buildup of creosote is the main reason why it’s important to have your chimney cleaned and inspected annually, but did you know that there are three degrees, or stages, of creosote?
Soot: While not dangerous, soot is flammable and spreads easily, leaving dirt stains in your home and potentially causing respiratory illnesses.
Creosote flakes: If soot isn’t addressed in a timely manner, over time it can morph into larger flakes, which are highly flammable and more difficult to remove.
Tar creosote: Severe disrepair. At this stage, the creosote coalesces to form a thick, extremely flammable paste along the walls of the chimney. The tar releases gasses, which remain in the chimney flue until a fire is lit. At that point, the gasses as well as the tar will catch fire almost immediately.
Chimney Fire Causes
Factors that increase risk of chimney fires include:
- Failing to have your chimney swept often enough, which can lead to soot buildup
- Blockages such as soot buildup, animal nests, or bits of foliage in your chimney that can restrict air flow
- Burning wet or unseasoned wood, which increases the production of creosote

David was prompt and very professional. He inspected and cleaned the fireplace & went over everything that he did and provided valuable information. Price was better that competitor's. I will definitely continue to do business with this company.
Very pleased with the professionalism and promptness of service. Chad was very helpful and courteous and the work was done quickly and efficiently at significantly less cost than the first quote we received. Happy to recommend Chimney Xpert.
Professional and polite company-I was able to get in the schedule the following week of my initial request for service. My tech was Conner and he did a great job. Going to have them back to repair the fireplace gas line.
Can't say enough good things about this company. James is extremely easy to communicate with, and is glad to answer any questions. The installers were extremely quick, but did a very quality job, at an affordable price. If I need any future chimney work I will definitely be coming back to Chimney Master Dallas.
I will try to keep this short and sweet! From dealing with the owner about what our needs really were to keeping the communication lines open and his team installing our new Buck Stove.
There is no way I could have been any more pleased with the entire experience. Their team are "First Class" all the way
