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 Cibolo, TX
A chimney cleaning in Cibolo usually costs between $189 and $289 for a standard sweep, and most homes here need one every 12 to 24 months depending on how often the fireplace runs. Cibolo’s newer subdivisions and older established streets each put different wear on a chimney, and the clay-heavy soil around the Cibolo Creek basin holds moisture that drifts into masonry over time. We’re Flint Chimney Sweep, and we handle Chimney Sweep in Cibolo, Chimney Inspection in Cibolo, and Chimney Repair in Cibolo. Call (830) 251-4560 for an exact quote, in writing, before any work begins.
Why Cibolo Homes Are Different
Cibolo sits on a band of Blackland Prairie clay that swells and shrinks with every wet-dry cycle. That movement shows up in fireplace masonry as hairline cracks along the firebox and at the chimney crown, which is why inspections here catch more minor mortar separation than in cities built on limestone shelf. Homes in the Bentwood Ranch and Turning Stone subdivisions tend to run gas log sets with pre-fabricated flues, while the older streets near Wiederstein Elementary and along FM 78 have a mix of full masonry chimneys with clay tile liners. The two systems fail in different ways, and the fix is not the same, so we do not quote a Cibolo chimney over the phone without knowing which setup is on the house.
Summer humidity is the quiet variable. Moist air settles inside a cool flue during the off season, and that dampness loosens creosote glaze and makes it cling to the tile liner. A chimney swept in spring, left alone through a humid Cibolo summer, often looks like it was never touched by October. We recommend scheduling the sweep in early fall for wood-burning fireplaces, after the humidity breaks, so the flue is clean when the first real cold front arrives. Gas log homeowners have more scheduling room, but the burner and pilot still collect dust and spider debris through the warm months.
Our Main Cibolo Services
Most Cibolo homeowners call us for one of three jobs: a standard sweep before burning season, a level inspection after buying a house, or a repair to a crown, liner, or firebox. Each service has its own page with pricing and process details.
Chimney Sweep in Cibolo
A Chimney Sweep in Cibolo removes creosote, soot, and any nest or debris from the flue and smoke chamber. On Cibolo homes with exterior chimneys, the clay soil movement means we check the crown and cap at the same time, because a shifted crown is the most common source of water entry on the second-story chase. The work takes about an hour to ninety minutes for a single flue. We run drop cloths and a HEPA-filtered vacuum the whole time, and you get a written condition report when the job is done. Price is agreed in writing before we start, never revised after.
Chimney Inspection in Cibolo
A Chimney Inspection in Cibolo documents what is inside the flue, behind the walls, and on the roof. Home sales in Cibolo subdivisions like Savannah Place and Buffalo Crossing often close with a level 2 inspection requirement from the lender or insurance underwriter, especially on homes built before 2010. When we inspect, the camera footage is yours, and any repair recommendation is tied to a specific frame of that footage. You see exactly what we see. That is the only way we will ask you to spend money on a repair.
Chimney Repair in Cibolo
A Chimney Repair in Cibolo covers everything from a new chimney cap to a full flue relining. Clay tile liners crack from the same soil movement that shifts the foundation, and once a liner has a vertical crack, smoke and heat reach the chimney chase. We specify materials like DuraFlex or HeatShield by what the repair actually requires, not by what is easiest to stock, and every repair carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise: if a covered repair fails within one full year, we return and fix it at no charge. That guarantee is in writing, every time.

What moves the number on a Cibolo job is access and condition: a second-story chimney with a steep pitch adds time, and a firebox with years of deferred mortar repair costs more than a straightforward sweep. The price we hand you before starting is the price on the invoice. No adder at the door, no mid-job change order without a written explanation and your sign-off.
