What do North Texas storms do to a Seagoville chimney?
The Dallas area gets everything in a single year: spring hail, straight-line winds, ice in a cold snap and long, hot summers that bake masonry. A chimney stands above the rest of the house taking all of it. Hail can chip the cement crown, wind can loosen a cap, and freezing weather expands whatever water has slipped into a crack.
That is why a chimney can look fine from the driveway and still be letting water in near the top. Finding a hairline crack after a storm season is far cheaper than fixing the brick or flue liner after a few winters of freeze and thaw.
The same goes for the long Texas summer. Sun and heat bake the cement on top of the chimney day after day, and that steady expansion and contraction is what opens the first hairline cracks.
Does a newer or older house change what the chimney needs?
It does, a little. Older homes tend to have full masonry chimneys with decades of weathering on the mortar and crown, and those benefit most from a close look at the joints and the top. Newer homes often have factory-built fireplaces with metal flues, where rust on the cap, damper or flue pieces is the main thing to watch.
Either way, the fireplace is part of your home's heating and venting, and it is easy to forget because it is only used a few weeks a year. The job is the same in both: clear out the soot, check that everything opens and seals, and find problems before you need a fire.
If you use gas logs, the chimney is still worth checking yearly, since debris and rust can quietly get in the way of proper venting.
What is included in the $99 sweep and inspection?
Our chimney sweep and inspection starts at $99. Every visit covers the pieces that decide whether your fireplace is safe to use.
- Sweep of the flue to remove soot and creosote
- Check of the firebox for cracks and wear
- Damper check, so smoke can leave and cold air stays out
- Check of the cap, which blocks rain and animals
- Check of the crown, which keeps water out of the masonry
If we find something that needs extra work, we explain it and quote the price before anything begins. You stay in charge of what gets done, and nothing is added behind your back.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a chimney sweep cost in Seagoville?
Chimney sweep and inspection from The Chimney Xpert starts at $99. Any extra work is explained and priced before it starts.
Can hail or wind damage a chimney?
Yes. Hail can chip the crown and wind can loosen the cap. Both let water into the chimney, so they are worth checking after a rough storm season.
Do factory-built fireplaces need sweeping?
Yes. Metal flues can collect soot and rust, so they benefit from a yearly sweep and inspection just like masonry chimneys.
How does scheduling work?
Pick a day and a 3-hour arrival window online. The office calls or texts to confirm, and the technician calls about 30 minutes ahead.
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

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
