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 Manor, TX
A chimney cleaning and inspection in Manor typically runs $189 to $339, and repair work depends on what the camera finds. Flint Chimney Sweep handles all three: sweeping, inspection, and repair, with a written price before any work starts. Manor’s mix of newer subdivisions and older rural homes means no two chimneys behave the same, so we quote each job on its own terms. Call (830) 251-4560 when you want a straight answer and a number in writing.
Why Manor Homes Are Different
Manor sits on the eastern edge of the Austin metro, where the Blackland Prairie soil cracks and shifts with every wet-dry cycle. That movement matters for chimneys. Homes east of 130 and along Blakey Road and Lexington Street – some built in the 1960s and 1970s, others thrown up in the 2010s boom – settle unevenly, and a settling foundation pulls a brick chimney with it. We see hairline cracks at the mortar joints and gaps where the chimney meets the roofline that you would not find in a static soil region.
Manor also gets real wind. Open prairie means gusts sweep across subdivisions like Presidential Meadows and ShadowGlen, driving rain sideways against chimney crowns. That is why crown sealant fails faster here than in sheltered neighborhoods closer to central Austin. Summer heat does its own damage: temperatures north of 100 degrees bake the clay flue tiles, and the expansion-contraction cycle loosens them over time. When we inspect a Manor chimney, we are looking at the soil, the wind, and the heat first.
Our Main Manor Services
Most Manor homeowners call us for one of two things: a routine sweep before burning season, or an inspection because something looks off and they want it on camera. Here is exactly what each involves in this area.
Chimney Sweep in Manor
A standard sweep in Manor removes creosote, soot, and any debris that nesting birds or wind-driven leaves have left behind. Because many Manor homes burn oak and mesquite, we often find a thick, glazed creosote that requires a rotary treatment rather than a basic brush pass. The job includes drop cloths, a HEPA vacuum, and a clean-out of the firebox and smoke shelf. Full details and current pricing are on the Chimney Sweep in Manor page.
Chimney Inspection in Manor
Our Manor inspections run a camera the full length of the flue, from the firebox to the cap. That shows us cracks in the clay liner, missing mortar joints, and blockages you cannot see from the hearth. Manor’s temperature swings make a video inspection worth it even on a chimney that has never caused trouble. We send you the footage and a written report before recommending anything. See Chimney Inspection in Manor for what each inspection level covers.
Chimney Repair in Manor
When the camera finds a crack, a shifted flue tile, or a crown failing from wind and heat exposure, the repair gets documented in writing before tools come off the truck. Common Manor repairs include crown resealing, tuckpointing, and flue relining – replacing the inner liner that channels smoke safely out of the house. Every repair carries a written one-year guarantee. Read specifics on the Chimney Repair in Manor page.

What pushes a Manor price up is usually creosote load from heavy oak burning, or a flue that needs a full relining after years of Manor’s freeze-thaw and heat cycles. Whatever the number, it goes in writing before any work starts, and the invoice matches the approved quote. No price moved at the door.

FAQs About Chimney Company in Manor
Most Manor jobs are scheduled within a few days, and we confirm the arrival window ahead of time. We do not promise same-day service because every job deserves full attention, not a rushed crew. Call (830) 251-4560 and we’ll give you the next available slot.
That depends on your subdivision. Some Manor HOAs, including newer communities like ShadowGlen and Presidential Meadows, have rules about visible exterior changes such as cap replacement or crown re-coating. We recommend checking your HOA covenants if visible work is planned. Sweeps and interior flue repairs do not require a city permit.
We show you the camera footage and put the recommended repair in writing with a firm price. You decide whether to proceed. There is no pressure to approve anything on the spot, and minor issues can sometimes wait a season if they do not pose a safety risk. Call (830) 251-4560 for an estimate.
