Wood or gas: which fireplace needs a more careful check in Bremond?
Both need a check, for different reasons. A wood-burning fireplace builds up soot and creosote with every fire, and that residue is the main fire hazard in the chimney. Burning is messy by nature, and the flue pays for it. A gas fireplace or set of gas logs leaves almost no soot, which is why many owners assume nothing can go wrong. The catch is that a gas system has less margin for a blocked or damaged flue, and moisture and rust can build up quietly.
So the question is not which one needs a check but what you are checking for. With wood, it is buildup. With gas, it is blockage, moisture and weather damage to the cap and crown. The Chimney Xpert serves Bremond as part of our Central Texas coverage and handles both the same way: sweep, then inspect.
What does the $99 visit include?
A chimney sweep and inspection starts at $99. It covers the sweep and a check of the flue, firebox, damper, cap and crown for both wood and gas systems.
- Wood: soot and creosote cleared from the flue
- Gas: flue and firebox checked for debris, rust and moisture
- Both: damper, cap and crown checked for wear
If we spot something that needs more than a cleaning, we explain it and price it before any extra work starts. The next step is your choice.
What is the best way to tell when something is wrong?
Watch for the small signs. Smoke that lingers in the room, a smell from the fireplace in humid weather, flaking or powdery brick, rust streaks in the firebox, and a damper that is hard to move are all worth a look. With gas logs, a flame that looks different or a sooty film on the glass is another flag.
None of these means an emergency, but each is a cue to book a check before the next fire. They rarely improve on their own, and weather only makes them worse.
If you are planning to convert from wood to gas, or the other way round, a chimney check is a good first step. Each fuel places different demands on the flue, and a chimney that worked well for wood may need attention before it suits gas. We can look at the condition of the flue and other parts and explain what you would be dealing with, so you can plan with real information before spending on equipment.

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

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
