What does the $99 chimney sweep include?
The Chimney Xpert offers a chimney sweep and inspection starting at $99 for homes in Bryn Mawr-Skyway. Every visit covers a full sweep of the flue along with a check of the firebox, damper, cap, and crown. This gives you a clear picture of how your chimney is holding up and whether creosote buildup, blockages, or wear need attention. If we find anything beyond a standard sweep, we explain it and give you a price before any extra work begins, so there are no surprises on your invoice.
How do I book a chimney sweep in Bryn Mawr-Skyway?
Booking is simple and handled online. You pick a day that works for you and a 3-hour arrival window, so you are not stuck waiting around all day. Our office follows up with a call or text to confirm the appointment, and on the day of service the technician calls about 30 minutes before arrival. It is a straightforward process built around your schedule.
Why does a chimney in this climate need regular attention?
- Western Washington's wet fall and winter months mean chimneys stay damp for long stretches, which can accelerate wear on masonry and metal components.
- Moss and debris that build up on roofs can work their way into caps and crowns if they are not checked regularly.
- Birds and small animals often look for a warm, sheltered spot in an unused flue, especially heading into the cooler months.
- Creosote buildup from regular fireplace or wood stove use is a leading cause of chimney fires, and it forms faster with heavy seasonal use.
An annual sweep and inspection before heating season is the simplest way to catch these issues early.
What happens if the technician finds a problem?
If the inspection turns up something beyond routine wear, such as a cracked crown, damaged cap, or heavier creosote buildup than expected, we walk you through what we found and what it would take to fix it. You get a clear price before any additional work starts, so you stay in control of the decision. There is never pressure to approve work on the spot.

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.

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
