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 Hickory Creek, TX
Chimney cleaning in Hickory Creek, TX typically runs $189 – $299 for a standard sweep, and most homes here need service before the first fall fire. Hickory Creek sits on the west side of Lewisville Lake, where damp spring weather and hot, humid summers take a real toll on masonry and liners. Our crews know the housing stock here: a mix of 1990s and early-2000s builds with factory-built fireplaces, plus older custom homes along the lakefront that often have full masonry chimneys. Call (830) 251-4560 and we’ll give you a written price before any work starts.
Why Hickory Creek Homes Are Different
Hickory Creek has two distinct chimney profiles, and the work differs depending on which one you own. The neighborhoods east of I-35E, around Turbeville Road and near the lake, skew toward larger homes built between 1985 and 2005. Many of these have wood-burning masonry fireplaces that see regular use from October through March. The clay tile liners in these chimneys are now 20 to 40 years old, and we routinely find spalling (flaking) tiles and deteriorated crown mortar during inspections.
West of I-35E, the newer subdivisions along Hickory Creek Road and Garrett Lane mostly have factory-built fireplaces with metal flues. These are simpler to sweep but have a different failure point: the manufactured chimney pipe can separate at the joints if the chase top flashing rusts through. Lake proximity matters, too. Homes within a half mile of Lewisville Lake get more wind-driven rain and higher humidity, which accelerates rust on caps and dampers. The soil movement in this part of Denton County, mostly expansive clay, also contributes to hairline cracking in exterior chimney brick. None of this is dramatic on its own, but it means a chimney in Hickory Creek needs a focused look at the parts that fail here specifically: caps, crowns, flashing, and the top five feet of liner.
Our Main Hickory Creek Services
Most Hickory Creek homeowners reach out for one of two reasons: annual cleaning before burning season, or a specific concern spotted from the ground, usually a rusted cap, cracked crown, or water staining on the ceiling near the fireplace. The repair side of the business handles what those inspections turn up.
Chimney Sweep in Hickory Creek
A standard Chimney Sweep in Hickory Creek removes creosote and soot from the flue, smoke chamber, and firebox, then runs a visual check of the accessible liner and damper. Hickory Creek homes that burn oak or pecan, the two most common firewoods in Denton County, tend to build glazed creosote faster than homes burning softer wood. The sweep includes floor protection, a HEPA-filtered vacuum, and a written report of what we found. Most jobs take 45 to 90 minutes.
Chimney Inspection in Hickory Creek
Our Chimney Inspection in Hickory Creek is the camera-based evaluation we recommend to anyone who has not had a chimney looked at in three or more years, or who just bought a home here. The camera goes up the flue and documents liner condition, mortar joints, and any obstructions. In Hickory Creek, we pay special attention to the top section of the flue, where wind-driven rain from the lake side has had years to work its way into the masonry. Every inspection includes a photo report.
Chimney Repair in Hickory Creek
When an inspection finds a problem, Chimney Repair in Hickory Creek covers the fix, from crown resealing to flue relining (replacing the inner liner that channels smoke safely out of the house). We install DuraFlex, HeatShield, and Copperfield products, specified by job. In Hickory Creek, the most common repair we perform is water-damage remediation: new caps, new flashing, and crown repair. Every repair carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise, a written guarantee valid for one full year. If a covered repair fails, we return at no charge.
