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 Fountainebleau, FL
Flint Chimney Sweep handles chimney cleaning, inspection, and repair across Fountainebleau, FL. Most homes here were built between the 1970s and early 2000s, which means a lot of masonry fireplaces and prefabricated units are reaching the age where creosote buildup and flashing failures become regular problems. We work under The Garrison Standard: every job gets a written price before any tools come off the truck, and every repair carries a 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. Call (830) 251-4560 and a live person answers, any hour.
Why Fountainebleau Homes Are Different
Fountainebleau sits just west of the Palmetto Expressway, and the housing stock runs from 1960s ranch homes to 1990s and 2000s two-story builds. That spread matters for chimney work. Older masonry chimneys in the area around Northwest 7th Street and the neighborhoods east of Fountainebleau Boulevard deal with decades of South Florida humidity working on mortar joints. Newer homes often have prefabricated metal chimneys, and those bring a different set of issues: rust at the chase top, warped caps, and galvanized pipe that has quietly corroded from the inside.
The bigger factor here is the weather. Fountainebleau gets heavy afternoon rain for half the year, and that water finds its way into any crack in a crown or gap in flashing. We see a lot of water-damaged fireboxes and rusted dampers that started as a small leak and sat through a summer of storms. Salt air from the coast adds another layer: it accelerates corrosion on metal components far faster than homeowners expect. A chimney in Fountainebleau needs more frequent inspection than one in, say, inland Florida, simply because water is the enemy here year-round.
Our Main Fountainebleau Services
Most Fountainebleau homeowners call us for one of two reasons: they need a routine sweep before burning season, or they have moisture or smoke issues that point to a deeper problem. Each service has its own Fountainebleau page with pricing and specifics.
Chimney Sweep in Fountainebleau
A Chimney Sweep in Fountainebleau removes creosote and soot from the flue and smoke chamber. In this climate, the bigger job is often clearing out debris that has fallen or blown in during the off-season, along with checking for the kind of moisture damage that accelerates creosote hardening. We sweep the full system, not just the visible firebox, and leave the area clean when we go.
Chimney Inspection in Fountainebleau
A Chimney Inspection in Fountainebleau is a camera-based look at the entire flue, from firebox to crown. We document what we find and give you a written report. For Fountainebleau homes, we pay special attention to water intrusion points: the crown, the flashing at the roofline, and the chase cover on prefab units. If a liner or masonry issue shows up on camera, you will see it in the report before anyone recommends a repair.
Chimney Repair in Fountainebleau
Chimney Repair in Fountainebleau covers the full range of fixes, from crown sealing and flashing replacement to flue relining and firebox rebuilds. Every repair goes through The Garrison Standard: the scope is written down, the price is fixed before work starts, and the finished job carries a written one-year guarantee. If a covered repair fails during that year, we return at no charge. We install professional-grade products like HeatShield and DuraFlex, specified by what the job actually needs.

Pricing for Chimney Company in Fountainebleau, FL
| Service | Typical range in Fountainebleau |
|---|---|
| Standard chimney sweep (Level 1) | $180 – $340 |
| Chimney sweep with heavy creosote buildup | $300 – $550 |
| Level 1 inspection (visual, no camera) | $150 – $250 |
| Level 2 inspection (camera, full flue) | $300 – $600 |
| Crown repair / resealing | $350 – $800 |

| Firebox repair / partial rebuild | $800 – $2,500 |
Two things push Fountainebleau prices higher than the state average: water damage and deferred maintenance. A crown that has been leaking for three wet seasons often means the repair extends into the top few courses of brick, not just the sealant. And a flue lined with hardened, glazed creosote takes longer to clean safely, which is reflected in the sweep price. Whatever the number, you will see it in writing before we start, and the invoice matches it.
