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.

Why Brookhaven Homes Are Different
Brookhaven’s housing stock runs older than a lot of metro Atlanta. Many homes in the Historic Brookhaven and Brookhaven Fields neighborhoods date from the 1940s through the 1970s, meaning we regularly work on masonry chimneys with clay tile liners that have seen fifty or more heating seasons. Older liners crack from repeated thermal expansion, and once they crack, the gap lets heat and gases reach wooden framing. That is the single most common repair trigger we see in Brookhaven.
The climate here works against chimneys two ways. Hot, humid summers push moisture into brick and mortar, and winter temperature swings freeze and thaw that moisture. The freeze-thaw cycle slowly spalls brick faces and widens mortar joints, which is why Brookhaven inspections so often turn up repointing needs. Tucked back on shaded lots along Dresden Drive and Osborne Road, we also see higher creosote and moss buildup on chimneys that stay damp most of the year. None of this is a reason to panic. It is a reason to have a trained eye on the chimney once a year.
Our Main Brookhaven Services
Most Brookhaven calls come in for one of two reasons: the homeowner wants a sweep before burning season, or they saw water staining near the chimney and want to know how bad it is. All three services below start with a written price.
Chimney Sweep in Brookhaven
A Chimney Sweep in Brookhaven removes creosote and soot from the flue, smoke shelf, and firebox. Creosote is the tarry residue wood smoke leaves behind, and it is combustible. In Brookhaven’s older homes, where flues often run cooler and tighter, creosote builds faster than in a modern house with better draft. We sweep the full system, contain the dust, and leave the hearth clean. The job typically takes about an hour.
Chimney Inspection in Brookhaven
A Chimney Inspection in Brookhaven is a camera-fed look at the flue liner, crown, flashing, and firebox. In Brookhaven, where many chimneys are original to 1950s and 1960s construction, inspections most often turn up cracked clay liners, deteriorated crowns, and flashing that has pulled away from the roof. We document everything with photos so you see exactly what we see. Nothing gets recommended without evidence on the screen.
Chimney Repair in Brookhaven
Chimney Repair in Brookhaven covers anything from a tuckpointing job on the stack to a full flue relining, which means replacing the inner liner that channels smoke safely out of the house. Brookhaven homes on tight lots and steep pitches make roof access tricky, so our crews stage repairs with ladder stays and roof protection from the first day. Every repair we make in Brookhaven carries a written guarantee for one full year from the service date.
