What does a $99 chimney sweep in Garden Ridge include?
Every visit starts with a chimney sweep and inspection from $99. That covers a check of the flue, firebox, damper, cap and crown, along with removal of creosote, soot and any debris like leaves or nesting material. This standard visit is what most homeowners need once a year to keep a chimney working safely. If we spot something that needs more attention, such as a cracked crown, a loose cap or a damaged liner, we walk you through what we found and give you a clear price before any extra work begins. You will never see surprise charges show up after the fact.
How does scheduling and arrival work?
Booking is done online. You pick a day that works for you and a three 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 showing up. That gives you time to wrap up whatever you are doing and be ready when we arrive.
Why does Garden Ridge's climate matter for chimney upkeep?
Garden Ridge sits about 19 miles from downtown San Antonio and shares the same weather pattern as the rest of the metro area. Summers are long, hot and humid, winters are generally mild but can bring a hard freeze or two, and pollen season is heavy in the spring. That combination of moisture, heat and occasional freezing temperatures puts real stress on masonry chimneys. Crowns can crack from repeated expansion and contraction, caps can loosen or rust, and moisture that gets past a damaged crown can lead to bigger repair bills over time. Even homes that only use the fireplace occasionally in the cooler months can build up creosote or attract nesting debris during the rest of the year. A yearly sweep and inspection is the simplest way to catch these issues early.
What happens if your chimney needs more than a sweep?
Sometimes a sweep turns up something beyond routine cleaning, like a worn crown, a damaged cap or signs of moisture getting into the flue. When that happens, we explain exactly what we found, why it matters and what it would cost to fix, before any of that work starts. You decide whether to move forward. We have already completed a chimney sweep in Garden Ridge, and we continue to serve the town as part of our regular San Antonio area coverage, whether you need a first time inspection or your yearly checkup.

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
