Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed
Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

AfterChimney Company in Irving, TX
A chimney sweep in Irving, TX typically costs between $189 and $329 for a standard cleaning, with inspections running $149 to $289 and repairs quoted per job with a written price before any work starts. Most Irving homes we see were built between the 1960s and early 2000s, and the local clay soil and summer heat cycles put real stress on masonry. Flint Chimney Sweep handles all three services, and you can reach us at (830) 251-4560.
Why Irving Homes Are Different
Irving sits on expansive clay soil, the same gumbo-type dirt you find across Dallas County. That soil swells when wet and shrinks through long dry summers, which means slab foundations move, and chimneys move with them. We see more cracked chimney crowns and hairline settlement cracks in Las Colinas and Valley Ranch than we do in newer construction up along Highway 161. Homes in the Heritage District and older pockets near downtown Irving were mostly built before 1980, and many still have original clay tile flue liners that are now pushing 40 or 50 years old. North Texas also gets real freeze-thaw cycles in January and February, even if they are short. Water gets into small cracks, freezes, expands, and widens them. A chimney that leaked a little after a spring storm is often a bigger problem by the next winter. If you live near the Trinity River bottom or in a shaded lot in University Hills, moisture is a bigger factor than it is on higher, sun-baked ground in MacArthur Hills.
Our Main Irving Services
Flint Chimney Sweep handles three core jobs in Irving, each with its own dedicated service page and each covered by the same written guarantee rules: sweep, inspection, and repair.
Chimney Sweep in Irving
Most Irving fireplaces are masonry wood-burning boxes with a clay tile flue, and the creosote they build up is the same type we clean in every older Dallas-area suburb. In newer Las Colinas townhomes and condos, factory-built prefab chimneys are common, and those need a different rod and brush set. A standard Chimney Sweep in Irving includes the flue, smoke chamber, damper assembly, and firebox, plus a visual check of the cap and crown while we are up there. We document everything before and after with photos, so you see exactly what came out.
Chimney Inspection in Irving
If you are buying or selling a home in Irving, or if you have owned one for more than a year without a chimney check, an Chimney Inspection in Irving tells you whether the flue is actually safe to burn. Real estate transactions here move fast, and a Level 2 inspection with a camera is what most lenders and buyers expect when a fireplace is part of the property. We find the same things repeatedly in Irving: rusted damper assemblies, spalled bricks on north-facing chimneys, and cracked flue tiles from decades of hot fires followed by cold snaps.
Chimney Repair in Irving
When a chimney has settled or cracked, the fix depends on what the camera actually shows. Chimney Repair in Irving covers crown rebuilds, tuckpointing, flashing replacement, flue relining, and firebox work. Every repair we quote comes with a written price before work begins, and every repair carries a one full year written guarantee. If a covered repair fails within that year, we return at no charge. That is the Garrison Standard, and it applies to every job on every street, from the Heritage District to Hackberry Creek.

Brands We Service in Irving
We install and work with proven trade brands, and we specify them by job, not by margin. That means DuraFlex and HeatShield for relining work, Gelco and Olympia Chimney components for caps and terminations, and Famco and Copperfield parts where they are the correct fit. Most of the common brands we service are stocked in our DFW warehouse, which keeps turnaround short across Irving.

What pushes a price up in Irving is usually access and condition. A steep roof pitch on a two-story Las Colinas house, a chimney surrounded by mature oak limbs near Heritage Park, or a flue that has not been swept in ten years all add labor time. One thing does not change: you get the written price before any tool comes off the truck, and the number you approve is the number on the invoice.
