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 Union Hill-Novelty Hill, WA
Flint Chimney Sweep handles chimney cleaning, inspection, and repair for homes across Union Hill-Novelty Hill, WA. This is a newer part of King County with large lot housing, a mix of 1970s through early-2000s builds, and a lot of tall evergreens close to rooftops. That combination means creosote buildup, moisture from heavy wet-season rain, and tree debris around chimneys are the three things we see most on service calls. For answers or a free estimate, call (830) 251-4560.
Why Union Hill-Novelty Hill Homes Are Different
Homes in Union Hill-Novelty Hill tend to sit on bigger lots than the denser Eastside neighborhoods, with second-growth conifers and cedars within dropping distance of a roofline. Needles, lichen, and storm debris end up in chimney flues and on crowns more than homeowners expect. The wet months from October through May keep that material damp, accelerating creosote hardening and mortar wear. We also see a meaningful number of two-story, steep-pitched rooflines on custom builds here, which changes how we set up ladders and stage the job. Union Hill-Novelty Hill does not have the kind of tight HOA oversight seen in some planned Eastside communities, but we still write down scope and price before any work starts. The Garrison Standard applies the same way on a large estate home off Avondale Road as it does on a split-level near Novelty Hill.
Our Main Union Hill-Novelty Hill Services
Most Union Hill-Novelty Hill homeowners call us first about two things: a standard sweep before or after burning season, and a camera inspection when they suspect water is getting in or a liner is degrading. Each service has its own detailed Union Hill-Novelty Hill page below.
Chimney Sweep in Union Hill-Novelty Hill
A Chimney Sweep in Union Hill-Novelty Hill removes creosote, soot, and debris from the flue and smoke chamber. With the amount of tree litter around Union Hill-Novelty Hill rooflines, we frequently pull out fir needles and small branch material along with the expected creosote. We protect the floor and fireplace opening before work begins, and every sweep gets a written price approved before the brush goes up.
Chimney Inspection in Union Hill-Novelty Hill
A Chimney Inspection in Union Hill-Novelty Hill is a camera-driven look at the interior flue, liner, crown, flashing, and firebox. Given the wet climate and the number of original liners we see on 1980s and 1990s homes here, the camera report matters. We give you a written summary and photos of anything we recommend, and nothing gets recommended unless you can see it clearly in the footage.
Chimney Repair in Union Hill-Novelty Hill
Chimney Repair in Union Hill-Novelty Hill covers crown rebuilds, flashing replacement, flue relining, brick repointing, and chase cover work. Rain exposure is the big driver of repair calls in this area, especially on homes facing the storms that come through from the west. Every repair here carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing, valid one full year from the service date.
