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.

Flint Chimney Sweep handles chimney cleaning, inspection, and repair for Surfside homeowners under The Garrison Standard: a written price before any work starts, a written one-year guarantee on every repair, and background-checked technicians who arrive in uniform. Homes in Surfside sit just blocks off the Atlantic, which means salt air works on chimney caps, flashings, and masonry joints year-round. A standard chimney sweep in Surfside typically runs $189 to $329, and you’ll know your exact number before we touch the chimney. Call (830) 251-4560 for a free estimate.
Why Surfside Homes Are Different
Surfside is a dense coastal town of roughly 5,700 residents packed into one square mile between Biscayne Bay and the ocean, and that geography shapes every chimney we service here. The dominant housing stock is a mix of 1940s and 1950s single-family homes around the Surfside Historic District, along with mid-rise condominium buildings along Collins Avenue and Harding Avenue. What we see most often in Surfside is corrosion: salt aerosol from the Atlantic settles on metal chimney components and accelerates rust on caps, dampers, and chase covers. Flashings on older roofs in the Surfside Historic District tend to be original or long past replacement age, which means water intrusion at the roof-liner junction is a common call. Condo buildings add a second layer of reality: many Surfside associations require a licensed chimney contractor to carry insurance naming the association, and scheduling is almost always coordinated through a property manager. Snow is never a factor here. Humidity, salt, and deferred maintenance are the factors that show up in the work.
Our Main Surfside Services
Most Surfside calls start with one of two things: a homeowner who wants the chimney swept before burning season, or a condo owner or buyer who needs a documented inspection before a sale or an association filing. Repairs follow from what those visits uncover.
Chimney Sweep in Surfside
A chimney sweep in Surfside removes creosote and soot from the flue and smoke chamber, clears any nesting material, and checks the damper operation as part of the visit. Because salt air accelerates rust on dampers and caps here, our technicians pay extra attention to the top of the chimney during every sweep. The job typically runs $189 to $329 depending on flue height and the level of buildup. We leave the firebox and hearth covered during the work and the area clean when we finish.

Chimney Inspection in Surfside
A chimney inspection in Surfside is what we recommend before you buy a home or condominium unit here, and before any first burn after a long stretch of disuse. Our technicians run a camera through the flue and photograph every finding, so you see what we see before any repair is recommended. In Surfside’s older housing stock, inspection commonly turns up cracked flue tiles, corroded dampers, or flashing that has separated from the roof deck. The inspection report documents what needs attention now and what can wait. Chimney Inspection in Surfside
Chimney Repair in Surfside
Repairs in Surfside tend to fall into two groups: rust replacement at the top of the chimney (caps, chase covers, dampers) and water-damage correction where flashing or masonry has failed. We write the repair scope and price before any work begins, and every repair carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If a covered repair fails within one full year, we return at no charge. No argument, no re-quote. Chimney Repair in Surfside
