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 Kennedale, TX
Chimney work in Kennedale comes down to two things: the age of the housing stock and how the Texas weather shifts from wet springs to hard freezes without much warning. Flint Chimney Sweep handles chimney cleaning, inspection, and repair across Kennedale, with every job documented in writing before any tools come off the truck. If you need a chimney sweep or a full inspection, call (830) 251-4560 and a live person picks up, day or night.
Why Kennedale Homes Are Different
Kennedale sits on the southern edge of Tarrant County, where the soil is a mix of sandy loam and clay that swells after spring rain and contracts during the dry heat of July and August. That movement matters for chimneys. Homes off Mansfield Cardinal Road and along Sublett Road tend to be brick-veneer construction from the 1980s and 1990s, and we regularly see mortar joints that have cracked from years of that thermal and moisture cycling.
The freeze-thaw pattern here also leaves its mark. A hard January freeze after a wet December will drive water into hairline cracks at the crown, then that water freezes and widens the crack. By the time burning season starts in October and November, those crowns need attention. Older homes around the Kennedale TownCenter area often have original clay tile liners, and those tiles can shift or crack with the same ground movement. That’s why we inspect before we clean on most first visits here.
Our Main Kennedale Services
Most homeowners in Kennedale call us for one of two reasons: they haven’t had the flue looked at in years and want to burn safely, or they’ve noticed something off, like water staining near the firebox or a draft that pulls smoke back into the room. Each service below has its own Kennedale page with full details.
Chimney Sweep in Kennedale
Creosote builds up fast when you burn softer woods like cedar and pine that are common around North Texas. A Chimney Sweep in Kennedale removes that layer before it thickens into a fire hazard. We use brushes sized to the flue, vacuum systems that keep the dust out of your living room, and we document the before and after so you see exactly what was removed. Most sweeps here take 45 to 90 minutes depending on flue height and buildup.
Chimney Inspection in Kennedale
If you’re buying a home in Kennedale or you’ve owned one for a few years without having the chimney looked at, a Chimney Inspection in Kennedale gives you a written camera report of the flue interior. We run a camera from the firebox up to the crown, checking for cracked tiles, gaps in the mortar joints, and any obstruction. The photos are yours to keep. When we find something, we show it to you on the screen before recommending any work.
Chimney Repair in Kennedale
Crown cracks, spalling brick, and damaged flue liners don’t fix themselves. A Chimney Repair in Kennedale covers the full range from tuckpointing and crown sealing to flue relining with HeatShield or DuraFlex. The key point: we put the repair scope and price in writing before the work starts, and the finished repair carries a written guarantee good for one full year. If a covered repair fails in that window, we come back at no charge.
