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 Conway, FL
Chimney work in Conway comes down to one constant: humidity. Rainy season starts in May and runs through October, which means creosote absorbs moisture, liners deteriorate faster, and masonry takes a beating from heat-and-rain cycles. A standard chimney sweep in Conway runs $149 – $289, and the job most homeowners actually need isn’t a sweep at all, it’s a camera inspection that proves what’s actually going on inside the flue. We’re Flint Chimney Sweep, and we do all three: sweeping, inspection, and repair, with a written price before any work starts. Call (830) 251-4560 and a live person answers.
Why Conway Homes Are Different
Conway’s housing stock is older than most of Orlando’s sprawl. We work on a lot of 1950s and 1960s ranch homes with masonry fireplaces that were built for wood-burning when Conway was still its own quiet corner of Orange County. Those older fireplaces have clay tile liners, and clay tile liners crack over time, especially with Florida’s wet-dry cycles. What we see regularly in neighborhoods around Lake Conway and the Barber Park area: hairline cracks in clay liners that let heat reach the framing. That’s not a sweep issue. That’s a HeatShield repair or a stainless flue liner. The other thing about Conway is greenery. Mature oak canopies mean more wildlife near chimneys, and un-capped flues get birds, squirrels, and nesting material packed in. Every inspection we do here includes checking whether the cap is intact and the chase cover is sealed.
Our Main Conway Services
Most Conway homeowners call us for one of two reasons: they’re overdue for a cleaning, or they’ve seen something that worries them, like water staining on the ceiling near the fireplace or a smell in the summer heat. Here’s how each service works here.
Chimney Sweep in Conway
A standard Chimney Sweep in Conway removes creosote and soot from the flue walls and smoke chamber. In Conway specifically, we pay close attention to glazed creosote, the hard, tar-like buildup that forms when humidity meets unseasoned wood. Standard brushes don’t always get that off, which is why we carry rotary tools for exactly those cases. A sweep here takes about an hour and a half, including the time we spend laying drop cloths and sealing off the firebox so soot doesn’t reach your living room. We leave the firebox clean, the damper checked, and the floor around the hearth swept.
Chimney Inspection in Conway
A Chimney Inspection in Conway is what we recommend before you buy a home or after any storm that hit your roof system hard. We run a camera through the entire flue and give you a photo report of what the camera sees: cracks, gaps, water entry, animal debris, deteriorated mortar joints. Nothing gets recommended without photographic evidence you can look at yourself. That’s not negotiable for us. If the flue is clean and sound, we’ll say so plainly, and you’ll have the photos to back it up. In Conway’s older homes, the camera usually finds something worth watching, even if it’s just a spalling brick or two on the exterior stack.
Chimney Repair in Conway
Chimney Repair in Conway covers everything from mortar crown rebuilding to flue relining to chase cover replacement. Conway’s wet season punishes missing crowns and flashing, and we see a lot of repairs that started as a small leak and got worse over two or three rainy seasons. We work with HeatShield, Gelco, and Olympia Chimney products, and we specify the material by the job, not by which one has better margins. Every repair carries a written 365-day guarantee. If a covered repair fails within the year, we come back at no charge.

Most interior work like sweeping and inspections needs no approval. Exterior work, like crown repair or flashing replacement, sometimes requires HOA sign-off in deed-restricted neighborhoods. We can tell you what’s typically required, but final approval comes from your association.
The sweep covers the flue, smoke chamber, and firebox, plus a damper check and a clean-up of the hearth area. It doesn’t include a camera inspection, but we can add one while we’re on-site if you want photographic proof of what’s inside your flue.
