Your Most Pressing Questions Answered by Our Local Experts

Empowering Houston homeowners with the knowledge they need for safe and reliable fireplace use.

As trusted local experts, we believe knowledge is safety. We've gathered the most common questions Houston homeowners ask about cleaning and chimney repair, ensuring you feel confident choosing Express Chimney Sweep.

The National Fire Protection Association strongly recommends having your chimney professionally inspected and swept annually—ideally before the burning season starts. This essential maintenance is critical to preventing dangerous creosote buildup, blockages, and potential chimney fires.

  • Annual inspections ensure safety and proper ventilation.
  • Frequent use may require more than one cleaning per year.

Key indicators include strange odors, visible smoke backing into your living space, flaky creosote in the firebox, or mortar debris near the hearth. If you spot any of these red flags, contact Express Chimney Sweep immediately for a detailed inspection and necessary chimney repair.

  • Look for white staining or crumbling bricks (signs of moisture damage).
  • Listen for animal noises or drafts — they can indicate blockages.

Our chimney inspection includes a detailed check of the interior flue, firebox, damper, and exterior structure. We also look for cracks, blockages, and creosote buildup to ensure your system is safe and efficient.
