Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.
Chimney Company in Aldine, TX
A chimney sweep in Aldine, TX typically costs $169 – $239 for a standard cleaning, and a Level 2 inspection runs $299 – $449. Most homes here need both, because the older brick ranch houses that dominate the area have chimneys that haven’t seen a proper cleaning in years. We’re Flint Chimney Co Houston, and we handle Chimney Sweep in Aldine, Chimney Inspection in Aldine, and Chimney Repair in Aldine. Every job gets a written price before we start. Call (325) 750-6259 and a live person answers, day or night.
Why Aldine Homes Are Different
Aldine’s housing stock is mostly brick veneer and wood-frame ranch homes built between the 1950s and the 1970s. That means masonry fireplaces and chimneys with decades of deferred maintenance. We regularly find cracked flue tiles and crumbling mortar joints in Aldine that would have been caught years earlier with routine cleaning. The original clay liners crack under the region’s warm-and-humid cycle plus the occasional freeze, and once a liner cracks, the chimney stops doing its job safely.
The humid subtropical climate works against chimneys even when nobody burns a fire. High humidity causes condensation inside the flue, which accelerates creosote corrosion and produces that musty odor homeowners notice when the fireplace hasn’t been used in months. We also see birds’ nests in unused Aldine chimneys every spring, especially in the neighborhoods around Aldine Mail Route and the older sections near Highway 59. Nesting material has to be removed before any cleaning can happen, and that’s a specialized removal, not just a sweep.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Aldine Services
Most Aldine homeowners call us for one of two reasons: they’ve never had the chimney cleaned since buying the house, or a home inspection flagged something. Here’s what each service covers and how it applies to Aldine’s older housing stock.
Chimney Sweep in Aldine
A standard Chimney Sweep in Aldine removes creosote, soot, and any debris from the flue and smoke chamber. In Aldine, we often find heavy creosote from owners burning green or unseasoned wood in fireplaces that were built for occasional use, not as a primary heat source. That creosote is exactly what makes chimney fires possible. The sweep includes a full cleanup, and we protect the floor around the fireplace with drop cloths before a single tool comes off the truck. Price is written down before work starts.
Chimney Inspection in Aldine
A Chimney Inspection in Aldine uses a camera to look at the flue liner, smoke chamber, and crown from top to bottom. On Aldine’s 1950s-70s brick homes, we’re checking for cracked clay tile, water entry at the crown, and rusted dampers. The camera feed lets you see exactly what we see, so you’re never taking our word for a repair you can’t verify. After the inspection, we give you a written report with photos, and we tell you plainly what needs work now and what can wait.
Chimney Repair in Aldine
Chimney Repair in Aldine covers crown repair, mortar joint repointing, damper replacement, and flue relining. Relining means replacing the inner liner that channels smoke safely out of the house. In Aldine, we often use HeatShield or a DuraFlex liner on older chimneys where the clay tile has cracked beyond patching. Every repair carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise, a written guarantee valid for a full year. If a covered repair fails, we return at no charge.

FAQs About Chimney Company in Aldine
Most Aldine appointments are scheduled within a few days, not a few weeks. We don’t promise same-day service because every job gets a written price and a booked window. Call (325) 750-6259 for the next available slot.
Most chimney sweeping and inspection work doesn’t require a permit in Aldine. Structural repairs like partial rebuilds can require permitting, and homeowners should confirm with the local authority. We’ll tell you if the repair we recommend falls into that category before any work is booked.
This is common in Aldine, especially in spring and in unused chimneys. The nest has to come out before any cleaning or inspection. We remove it as part of the service call and note any damage the animals caused to the flue or cap.
