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 Georgetown, CA
Flint Chimney Sweep is the chimney company Georgetown homeowners call when they want a written price, a set arrival window, and a repair guarantee that actually holds up. Most homes here sit above 2,600 feet in the Sierra foothills, which means real heating seasons, real creosote buildup, and real consequences if the flue is ignored. If you need a sweep, an inspection, or a repair, call (830) 251-4560 and we’ll tell you exactly what it costs before a single tool comes off the truck.
Why Georgetown Homes Are Different
Georgetown sits in a fire-prone part of El Dorado County, and that shapes how we approach every chimney job here. Wood stoves and older masonry fireplaces do the heavy lifting through the winter, often burning softwoods like pine and cedar that produce creosote faster than hardwood. The terrain matters too. Steep lots, narrow driveways off Wentworth Springs Road, and older cabins along Main Street mean a chimney crew has to plan access carefully before arriving. Many homes date back to the Gold Rush era or the mid-century buildout, and we regularly find flues that were sized for an old stove but are now venting a modern insert. That mismatch is exactly what a written camera report is for.
Our Main Georgetown Services
Georgetown homeowners call us most often for two things: a sweep before burning season and a camera inspection when something doesn’t smell or draft right. Repairs follow when the camera finds damage.
Chimney Sweep in Georgetown
A standard sweep here removes the creosote and soot that accumulate from softwood fires, and it usually runs $189 to $329. In Georgetown, the question we hear most is whether last season’s buildup is safe to burn over – and our answer is always the same: let us put a camera up there and show you. Read the full breakdown on our Chimney Sweep in Georgetown page.
Chimney Inspection in Georgetown
An inspection in Georgetown is often triggered by a home sale, a visible crack, or water staining around the ceiling near the flue. Level 1 runs $149 to $259, and a Level 2 camera inspection runs $249 to $399. Older Georgetown homes especially benefit from the camera work, because flue damage behind stone or brick is invisible from the ground. See what each level covers on the Chimney Inspection in Georgetown page.
Chimney Repair in Georgetown
Repairs here range from simple crown sealing at $325 to full flue relining at $4,900 to $8,200 – and every repair, on every job, comes with the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. We quote the exact scope and material before any work starts, and we spec brands like HeatShield and DuraFlex by job, not by margin. Details are on the Chimney Repair in Georgetown page.
