Do fireplace inserts and wood stoves need a different kind of sweep?
They need the same attention, with a few differences. An insert or a stove usually connects to a smaller flue pipe, and smaller pipes clog faster because there is less room for buildup. Stoves that burn hot and long also tend to produce more residue over a season.
That is why people with stoves and inserts tend to need the most regular sweeping. If the stove is your primary source of warmth on cold nights, the flue should be checked every year without fail, and more often if the stove runs around the clock in a cold spell.
Open masonry fireplaces are simpler to reach but collect plenty of soot as well.
What does the $99 visit cover?
Our chimney sweep and inspection starts at $99. It covers:
- Sweeping the flue to clear soot and creosote
- Checking the firebox or stove connection for cracks and wear
- Checking the damper for smooth use and a tight seal
- Checking the cap and crown for damage
If we find a problem that needs more than a sweep, we explain it clearly and give you the price before we start. You stay in control of the work.
For stoves and inserts, the connection between the appliance and the flue is worth watching. Soot can collect at bends, and joints can loosen over time. That is one more reason the yearly visit matters for anyone who depends on a stove for heat. It keeps the whole path from the fire to the sky clear and sound.
How should I prepare my home before the technician arrives?
A little preparation makes the visit smoother. Make sure the fireplace has been cool for at least a day, so nothing is hot when we arrive. Clear the area in front of the fireplace or stove, and move rugs, furniture and breakable items back a few feet.
If you have a particular concern, such as smoke entering the room, a strange smell or a damper that sticks, write it down or have it ready to mention. It helps us focus on the real problem.
Pets are best kept in another room, as a matter of comfort for everyone.
That is all you need to do. We handle the rest, and explain anything we find in plain terms.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a chimney sweep cost in Leming, TX?
A chimney sweep and inspection starts at $99. Any extra work is explained and priced before it starts.
Do wood stoves clog faster than fireplaces?
Often, yes. Stove flues are smaller and run hotter and longer, so buildup happens faster and yearly sweeping matters more.
How should I get ready for the visit?
Let the fireplace cool for a day and clear the area in front of it. Mention any concerns when you book.
How do appointments work?
Choose a day and a 3-hour arrival window online. The office confirms by call or text, and the technician calls about 30 minutes before arriving.
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

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
