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 Reno, TX
Chimney work in Reno comes down to one fact: the chimneys here are older than the homeowners realize, and the clay flue liners inside them see more thermal stress than the mild winters suggest. A standard chimney sweep in Reno runs $189 – $349, and a Level 2 video inspection runs $250 – $550. This page covers what makes Reno jobs different, what things cost, and where we work. If you need a chimney company in Reno, call (830) 251-4560.
Why Reno Homes Are Different
Reno sits in Parker County, where the housing stock shifts between 1970s brick ranch homes, newer 2000s builds along Sandy Beach Road and Reno Road, and a handful of older lake-era cabins tucked near the north edge of town. The two patterns we see on nearly every Reno job start with deferred maintenance. A home changes hands, the new owner checks the roof, the siding, the water heater, and never thinks about the chimney. The first time we camera a flue in Reno, it has usually been ten or more years since anyone looked inside it.
The second pattern is weather-related. Spring storms roll through fast, dropping hail and driving rain into chimneys with cracked crown joints. Summer heat bakes the exterior masonry, and the temperature swing between a cold January morning and a warm afternoon works mortar joints loose over the years. None of this is dramatic. It is slow, and it shows up in spalled bricks, rusted damper assemblies, and flue tiles with hairline cracks that widen under heat. The fix in Reno is rarely complex; it is usually catching the wear before a chimney fire or a water intrusion makes the repair expensive.
Our Main Reno Services
Three services cover almost every call we run in Reno, and each has its own page with fuller detail on pricing and process.
Chimney Sweep in Reno
A sweep in Reno means removing creosote and soot from the flue and smoke chamber, along with any debris that has dropped in from the cap. We use rotary brushes sized to your specific liner, and we run a camera after the sweep to confirm the flue is clear and intact. The most common question from homeowners is whether the sweep will be messy; our vacuum setup keeps dust inside the firebox and out of the living room. Full details and pricing are on the Chimney Sweep in Reno page.
Chimney Inspection in Reno
A Reno inspection is a camera-first evaluation of the flue liner, damper, smoke chamber, crown, and cap. We look for cracked clay tiles, gaping mortar joints, blockage, and water staining. The written report includes still images from the camera run, so you are not taking our word for a repair recommendation; you are looking at the same evidence we are. This is the service most often skipped and most often regretted. The inspection page has the full scope: Chimney Inspection in Reno.
Chimney Repair in Reno
When the camera shows damage, repair is the next call. Most Reno repairs are flue relining, crown rebuilding, damper replacement, or masonry repointing. We quote the repair after the inspection, with the camera findings attached. Every repair carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing: if a covered repair fails within a year, we return at no charge and make it right. Full detail lives on the Chimney Repair in Reno page.

What pushes a Reno job higher is usually access: steep roof pitch, a chimney stack that requires lift equipment, or a firebox that has not been opened in years and needs extra time to clear. A two-story brick chimney after a hail storm can also show crown damage that extends into the flue. Whatever the job, we hand you a written price before any work starts, and the number you approve is the number you pay.
