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 Myrtle Beach Homes Are Different
Myrtle Beach chimneys take a beating from things most inland towns never deal with. The salt air off the Atlantic accelerates rust on dampers and flashing. Summer humidity sits inside flues and mixes with creosote, forming a stubborn acidic residue. And plenty of homes here are second properties or short-term rentals that sit sealed up for weeks at a time. A chimney that goes unused in a humid, salt-heavy climate does not stay clean by accident. It collects moisture, nesting material, and corrosion while nobody is looking. Homes in neighborhoods like Carolina Forest, Market Common, and the Dunes Club area all share one thing: the fireplace might only get used a handful of times each year, but it still needs a yearly check. That is the reality of owning a chimney on the coast. What works for a house in a dry inland climate does not always hold up here, and the inspection report should reflect that.
Our Main Myrtle Beach Services
Most Myrtle Beach homeowners reach out to us for one of three things: a sweep before burning season, an inspection after buying or selling a home, or a repair after the salt air has done its damage. Each service has its own page with local pricing and the exact process.
Chimney Sweep in Myrtle Beach
A Chimney Sweep in Myrtle Beach is the baseline service, and we treat it that way. Technicians remove creosote, soot, and any debris that has collected since the last burn, then do a visual check of the accessible flue and firebox. In Myrtle Beach, we see a lot of sand and salt residue tracked into the firebox, plus the usual creosote buildup. A sweep runs $180 – $340 depending on the size and condition of the chimney. Every sweep includes a written summary of what was removed and what we saw.
Chimney Inspection in Myrtle Beach
Our Chimney Inspection in Myrtle Beach service is what most realtors and home inspectors recommend before a purchase closes. We document the flue with a camera and produce a photo report you can actually read. Coastal homes develop specific problems: corroded dampers, spalling brick from salt penetration, and liner wear from damp conditions. A Level 2 inspection in Myrtle Beach typically runs $250 – $500. If we see something, you see it too. Nobody gets asked to approve a repair based on a verbal description.
Chimney Repair in Myrtle Beach
When the salt and humidity have compromised the masonry or the liner, our Chimney Repair in Myrtle Beach team handles it. Common jobs here include flue relining (replacing the inner liner that channels smoke safely out of the house), crown repair, flashing replacement, and tuckpointing. Repair costs in Myrtle Beach start around $350 for minor work and a full reline typically runs $3,200 – $6,500 depending on flue size and height. Every repair carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing: if a covered repair fails within a year, we return at no charge.
