Most chimney trouble in Arlington shows up the same way. A smoky smell after the first cold snaps of November, a ceiling stain near the chimney after a spring storm, or a brick that crumbles in your hand. The house was built in the 1950s near UTA or a 1980s ranch in South Arlington, and nobody has looked up the flue in years. This page explains what each chimney service does, which Arlington homes need it, and where to find the detail page with the real price or the free estimate.
Chimney Sweep, Cleaning and Inspection in Arlington
A chimney sweep and cleaning in Arlington is the yearly service that NFPA 211 calls for on every wood-burning fireplace. Crownline Chimney Sweep's first-visit chimney sweep is $109 (regular $229) and includes a Level 1 chimney inspection and a photo report. Every chimney cleaning starts with drop cloths and a HEPA vacuum. We brush the flue from the firebox up, clean the smoke chamber and damper, and show you photos of the creosote that came out.
A chimney inspection with a camera is how you find out whether a sweep is needed at all, and whether the clay tiles, mortar joints and damper are sound. Buying or selling a home in Arlington, or had a chimney fire or hail damage? Book a Level 2 chimney inspection, which adds a full video scan of the flue and a written report for the lender or adjuster. When the camera shows glazed, tar-like creosote that a brush will not move, creosote removal uses a chemical treatment and a rotary head to take it off the flue walls before it becomes fuel for a chimney fire.
Chimney Repair in Arlington: Crowns, Caps, Flashing and Leaks
North Texas clay soil moves, summer heat bakes the mortar, and Tarrant County hail hits the top of the chimney first. That is why chimney repair in Arlington is mostly water work. A cracked chimney crown lets rain into the brick. A missing or rusted chimney cap lets rain, leaves and animals straight down the flue. Chimney flashing that has pulled away from the roof leaves a ceiling stain after every storm. On the factory-built fireplaces common across Southwest Arlington, the metal chase cover rusts through and the wood chimney siding and chase rots below it. Once the repair is done, chimney waterproofing with a breathable sealer keeps the brick from soaking up the next storm. Repair estimates are free, and the price is in writing before we start.
Chimney Masonry, Liners and Rebuilds
Arlington's 1950s to 1980s brick chimneys around Old Arlington, UTA, Dalworthington Gardens and Pantego are at the age where mortar joints fail and brick faces spall. Chimney masonry and tuckpointing grinds out the failed mortar and repoints it with a matching mix. When the top courses are loose or leaning, a partial chimney rebuild takes the chimney down to sound brick and rebuilds it above the roofline. Inside, a cracked clay tile flue gets a stainless steel chimney liner, and a smoke chamber with gaps in the brick gets smoke chamber repair (parging), so smoke and heat stay inside the chimney where they belong. Masonry work is quoted after an inspection, in writing, with photos of what we found.
Animal Removal and Commercial Chimney Services
A scratching sound in the flue in May or June is usually a raccoon, a squirrel or chimney swifts, and swifts are protected by federal law, so timing matters. Animal removal from chimneys gets the animal out humanely, cleans the flue, and caps the chimney so it does not happen again. For restaurants, apartment buildings, HOAs and property managers in Arlington, commercial chimney services cover multi-flue chimneys, scheduled cleanings and inspection reports for insurance.
