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 Clovis, CA
Chimney cleaning in Clovis, CA typically runs $189 to $349 for a standard sweep, and most homes here need it done before the first fire of fall. What makes Clovis work different from Fresno or Madera is the mix of 1970s and 1980s tract housing with newer northeast Clovis builds, plus real temperature swings between valley summer heat and cold Sierra-fed winter air. Call (830) 251-4560 and we’ll give you a written price before anyone steps on your roof.
Why Clovis Homes Are Different
Clovis sits on flat San Joaquin Valley floor, so wind is the first thing a chimney technician notices. It’s not unusual to find creosote that has dried and flaked unevenly because Clovis gets long dry stretches between rains, which changes how deposits form compared to coastal chimneys. The housing stock matters too: older neighborhoods near Old Town Clovis and along Clovis Avenue tend to have masonry fireplaces with clay tile liners that were installed when those homes were built. In northeast Clovis, newer construction often uses prefabricated fireplaces with factory-built metal chimneys, and those have entirely different clearance and inspection requirements.
Another Clovis reality is fall startup. People here light their first fire when the temperature drops in late October, and a chimney that sat all summer with a cracked cap or an open damper can have debris, nesting material, or even a dead bird inside. We see that regularly across the 93611, 93612, and 93619 ZIP codes. HOA rules in master-planned communities like Harlan Ranch and Loma Vista can also limit when roof work happens, so we always confirm access and any community restrictions before scheduling a sweep.
Our Main Clovis Services
Most Clovis homeowners call us first for a sweep or an inspection, and both services have their own dedicated Clovis pages with full pricing and process detail.
Chimney Sweep in Clovis
A Chimney Sweep in Clovis removes the creosote and soot that builds up inside the flue each burning season. In Clovis, we often find that the dry heat has baked creosote into a hard, glazed layer that takes longer to remove than the powdery kind. Our sweep includes a full flue brushing, smoke chamber cleaning, a basic safety check, and drop cloths from the firebox to the front door. You get a written price before the brush goes up the flue, and the sweep is backed by the same 365-day Done Right Promise we put on every job.
Chimney Inspection in Clovis
A Chimney Inspection in Clovis is the right call when you’ve bought a house, haven’t used the fireplace in two or more years, or noticed anything odd like water stains on the ceiling near the chimney. We inspect the flue interior, the crown, the cap, the damper, and the firebox, and we document what we find. In Clovis, we pay extra attention to wind-damaged caps and rusted chase tops on prefab units. The written report tells you plainly what needs work now, what can wait, and what is fine.
Chimney Repair in Clovis
A Chimney Repair in Clovis covers everything from a cracked crown to a full flue relining, which is replacing the inner liner that channels smoke safely out of the house. Clovis clay tile liners crack over time from repeated heating and cooling, and once a liner is breached, the chimney is no longer safe to use until it’s fixed or relined. We repair with professional-grade materials like HeatShield and DuraFlex, and every repair includes a written guarantee valid for one full year. If a covered repair fails in that window, we come back at no charge.
