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 Arlington, TX
A chimney sweep in Arlington typically costs between $180 and $350, and most calls here come down to the same thing: a fireplace that smokes, an odor that won’t quit, or a buyer’s inspection that flagged the flue. Arlington’s housing stock runs older than a lot of north Texas, and that means more masonry chimneys, more clay tile liners, and more fireplaces that were built to burn wood before natural gas took over. We’re Flint Chimney Sweep, part of the Garrison Partners family founded in 2002, and we put every job’s price in writing before a single tool comes off the truck. Call (830) 251-4560 for a free estimate.
Why Arlington Homes Are Different
Arlington is a city of older single-chimney homes, and the age shows up in specific places. Homes built between 1950 and 1985, which fill neighborhoods from Dalworthington Gardens down through the area around Pioneer Parkway, often have original clay tile liners that crack at the mortar joints after enough freeze-thaw cycles. North Texas winters don’t freeze deep, but they do cycle. A chimney in Arlington sits through summer attic heat, then December cold snaps, and that expansion and contraction works on clay tile the same way it works on foundation slabs.
The other thing that shows up in Arlington specifically is gas appliance ventilation. A lot of homes on the south side, down toward the old Great Southwest industrial corridor and the neighborhoods off Green Oaks, run furnaces and water heaters through the same masonry flue that used to serve a wood-burning fireplace. When wood and gas share a flue without a proper liner, the flue sees condensation and soot mix that the original build never anticipated. That’s an Arlington-specific pattern we see weekly.
Our Main Arlington Services
Most Arlington homeowners reach out for a sweep or an inspection, and roughly half of those jobs turn into some level of repair once we see what the camera shows.
Chimney Sweep in Arlington
An Chimney Sweep in Arlington here means more than pulling a brush. Arlington chimneys built in the 60s and 70s often have shallow smoke shelves and tight offsets that hold onto creosote in the summer humidity. We run every flue with a camera after the brushed sweep, so you see what we saw. The work includes moving furniture protection, a HEPA-filtered vacuum, and a written report. Standard wood-burning fireplace sweep in Arlington runs $189 – $229, and gas fireplaces run $149 – $189.
Chimney Inspection in Arlington
Our Chimney Inspection in Arlington is built around the camera. Homes here change hands constantly, and buyers’ inspectors usually flag the chimney without looking inside it. A Level 2 inspection with video runs $249 – $399 in Arlington and includes a full interior scan of the flue liner, the smoke chamber, and the crown. If you’re buying on the north side or in Dalworthington Gardens, schedule this before closing. The report goes to you and your agent.
Chimney Repair in Arlington
Repairs in Arlington split into two buckets: masonry, and flue liners. Cracked crowns and spalling brick on the exterior show up often because of the cycle I mentioned earlier. Inside, flue liner failures are the bigger issue. Our Chimney Repair in Arlington covers everything from a new cap to full flue relining with HeatShield or DuraFlex. Every repair carries a written one-year guarantee under our 365-Day Done Right Promise. If it fails within the year, we return at no charge.
