Fast, Reliable Chimney Cleaning & Sweep Across Everman
Chimney cleaning and sweep service in Everman typically runs $149-$289 for a standard Level 1 sweep with inspection, and most appointments are completed same-day. Our Chimney Cleaning & Sweep team knows the 76140 ZIP well - we’ve been pulling trucks up to brick ranch homes off Everman Parkway and along Trammel Davis Road since 1984.
Everman’s working-class neighborhoods were built for practicality, not pretense. The modest brick ranches that line these streets, many thrown up in the 1950s and 1960s for factory workers and their families, still heat with the original masonry fireplaces their first owners relied on. That longevity is admirable. It also means we’re routinely called to chimneys that haven’t seen a brush in twenty years - sometimes longer. Russell Haines started this company on the principle that a homeowner deserves to know exactly what condition their chimney is in, explained plainly, with photos they can see for themselves. We answer our phone with a live person, 24 hours a day, every day. Call (844) 803-1545.
Why Hearthstone Chimney Co. Is Everman’s Preferred Chimney Cleaning & Sweep Company
We’ve worked the black clay soils of southern Tarrant County long enough to know what hides behind Everman’s intact-looking brick. The heavy Vertisol underneath these neighborhoods heaves and shrinks with every rain cycle and dry spell, working apart mortar joints at the chimney base and crown. A tech who treats this like any other sweep misses the structural story. We don’t.
Our reputation here was built one house at a time - neighbors telling neighbors, the way things used to work. Everman customers specifically mention our Level-2 camera inspections in reviews, noting that we show them photos of their own flue and explain what they’re looking at without talking down to them. Response time to the 76140 ZIP averages under 90 minutes during business hours, and we schedule with a two-hour window, not an all-day wait.
We understand the local housing stock because we’ve crawled it. Original terra cotta flue tiles from the 1960s. Rusted Gelco caps that haven’t been replaced because the previous owner “never got around to it.” Chimneys that vent into fireplace inserts installed by homeowners who didn’t know they needed a liner. This is not generic knowledge. It is the accumulated experience of decades working Everman addresses specifically.
Our Chimney Cleaning & Sweep Services in Everman
Level 1 Inspection
A Level 1 inspection is the baseline for every chimney we touch in Everman - and for many of these 50-70-year-old systems, it’s where we find the first sign that something deeper is needed. We examine the readily accessible portions of your chimney exterior, interior, and connecting appliance, checking for obstructions, creosote buildup, and basic structural soundness. In Everman’s older ranch homes, we frequently discover that “routine maintenance” has been deferred for decades, making even a Level 1 inspection revelatory for the homeowner. The $149-$189 price includes the sweep if creosote is present and accessible. Done right - and we stand behind it.
Level 2 Inspection
When a home changes hands in Everman, or when our Level 1 exam reveals suspected damage, we recommend a Level 2 inspection with camera scan. This is non-negotiable for real estate transactions and strongly advised for any chimney in this ZIP that hasn’t been professionally examined in five years or more. We run a high-resolution camera the full length of your flue, documenting every crack, gap, and glaze deposit with timestamped photos you receive with your report. The expansive clay soils here mean we often find mortar separation and crown cracks invisible from the roofline. Level 2 inspection in Everman runs $229-$289. Photos you can see, a plain-English verdict.
Creosote Removal
North Texas cold snaps - including the February 2021 storm that sent Everman residents scrambling for any heat source - create a specific creosote problem. Homeowners fire long-dormant chimneys a handful of times per year, often burning whatever wood is handy, sometimes unseasoned, sometimes smoldering the fire low overnight. This produces glazed creosote: hard, tar-like, and significantly more flammable than the powdery soot of regular use. Our rotary cleaning system, using professional-grade brushes and solvents from trusted suppliers, breaks down glazed deposits without damaging aging terra cotta flue tiles. Heavy creosote removal in Everman typically falls between $189-$269 depending on accessibility and degree of buildup. We’ll tell you before we start. A square deal: no surprises on the bill.
Soot Removal & Fireplace Cleaning
The fireplace itself - the firebox, smoke shelf, and hearth - accumulates soot and debris that a flue-only sweep leaves behind. In Everman homes where the fireplace has been the primary backup heat source through multiple decades, we’ve pulled out everything from bird nests to partially burned Christmas wrapping. Our complete fireplace cleaning includes hand-brushing the firebox, vacuuming the smoke shelf (where most homeowners never look), and inspecting the damper for proper operation. This service runs $169-$229 in the 76140 market and is often paired with our $89 Seasonal Tune-Up for homeowners who use their hearth regularly. Most jobs completed in a single visit.

Trusted Brands We Service in Everman
We stock and install professional-grade components from HeatShield, Gelco, and Olympia Chimney - brands we’ve specified for decades because they hold up to North Texas temperature swings and the structural stress this soil puts on chimney systems. When an Everman homeowner needs a cap replaced or a crown repaired, we’re not ordering from a catalog and making you wait two weeks. Our trucks carry common sizes and configurations for the ranch-style chimneys dominant in this ZIP. That means faster turnaround, fewer return trips, and a job that stays done. We also work with Famco and Copperfield when a specific application calls for it, but we never substitute builder-grade materials to shave cost. The 90-Day Done Right Promise covers what we install because we trust what we use.
Common Chimney Cleaning & Sweep Problems We See in Everman Homes
- Glazed creosote from infrequent, cold-weather-only fires. Everman homeowners tend to use their fireplaces during sudden North Texas cold snaps, burning whatever wood is available at low temperatures. This creates a hard, tar-like deposit far more combustible than normal soot, and it’s the leading cause of chimney fires in this ZIP.
- Crown and mortar cracks from expansive clay soil movement. The black Vertisol beneath Everman’s older neighborhoods swells when wet and shrinks in drought, steadily separating chimney crowns from flue tiles and opening mortar joints. We find this hiding behind apparently sound brick on homes throughout the 76140 area.
- Missing or deteriorated chimney caps allowing water and animal entry. Original caps from the 1960s and 1970s have rusted through or blown off entirely, leaving flues open to rain, raccoons, and nesting birds. Water entry accelerates deterioration of the terra cotta flue liner and the smoke shelf below.
- Fireplace inserts installed without proper chimney liners. Older Everman ranches sometimes received retrofit inserts in the 1980s and 1990s, venting into flues never sized for their exhaust temperatures. The resulting creosote accumulation and potential liner damage requires camera inspection to assess properly.

What moves a job to the higher end: heavy glazed creosote requiring rotary equipment, steep roof pitch or limited access (some Everman ranches have low-slope roofs that are simple; others with additions create tight quarters), and the need for minor repairs such as crown sealing or cap replacement discovered during inspection. We provide upfront pricing before any work begins - the number on the estimate is the number on the invoice. Our $89 Seasonal Tune-Up is available for systems in good working order, and we maintain standing offers: $50 off any repair over $250, free second opinion on any written estimate, and a permanent 5% senior and veteran discount.
