Every job starts with the same free inspection: photos from inside the flue and from the roof, a written quote, and a straight answer on what actually needs doing.
Tell us what you’re noticing: smoke in the room, a smell, a stain by the fireplace, a dryer that takes two cycles. The free inspection points to the right service, or to none.

Hot summers, hard freezes, cedar smoke and caps nobody has looked at in a decade. Every photo below was taken by our crew on a real job.
The shiny black layer on the flue walls is third-stage creosote: fuel stuck to the chimney. It is what chimney fires burn, and it does not show from the living room.
A cap without a screen is an open door for birds, squirrels and rain. Half the flues we open in the fall have a nest or a dead bird on the smoke shelf.
Hill Country sun opens hairline cracks in the crown, the winter freezes turn them into spalled stone and loose mortar. Small repair now, rebuild later.
The problems homeowners called about, the work done, and the documented result, shown through real before-and-after photos from the flue, the firebox and the roof.
Photos by our crew, sent to the homeowner at the end of every job.

BeforeAfterWhat homeowners shared about the chimney work completed, their experience with our crew, and the service they received. Reviews left for our crew under Air Duct Busters, the company World of Chimney grew out of. Every one is on Google.
Noah was professional, knowledgeable, and extremely thorough while working on both my air ducts and chimney. He took the time to explain everything and made sure the work was done properly from start to finish.

Read moreEverything from the firebox to the cap: chimney sweep, NFPA 211 inspection, chimney repair, cap and crown, relining and new chimneys. Photos from inside the flue before any quote.
Wood and gas: annual gas fireplace service, firebox repair and fireplace installation, inserts included. Lit and tested before we leave.
Dryer vent cleaning of the full run from the dryer to the outside cap, with the roof termination cleared from the roof side. About 30 minutes; clothes dry in one cycle again.
Chimney flashing repair and roof vent and cap service: the roof-side half of every chimney and vent problem, photographed from up there so you never have to climb.
Every inspection comes with photos from inside the flue, the firebox and the roof, sent to your phone, so you see what we saw before you decide anything.
Per line and per task, in writing, before anything is touched. The number we quote is the number you pay. About one in five inspections ends with “you’re fine.”
Four steps, and you can stop after any of them without owing a thing.
Within the hour during business hours. We confirm a window that suits you, often the same or next day.
A technician checks the firebox, runs a light or a camera up the flue and looks at the cap, crown and flashing from the roof. You can watch the whole time.
Priced per line and per task, in writing, before anything is touched. Decide now or think it over.
Most sweeps and services finish the same visit with the hearth sealed and a HEPA vacuum running. You get after-photos and pay when done.
Most homeowners call three companies. Here is what to ask each of them.
| Ask them | World of Chimney | Coupon sweep |
|---|---|---|
| Is the inspection free, and do I get photos? | Yes. Photos from inside the flue and from the roof, sent to your phone. | A “free estimate” that turns into upsells at the hearth. |
| Is the price in writing before you start? | Yes. Per line, per task, signed before work. | $79 covers a brush up the flue; the smoke shelf, damper and cap are “extra.” |
| Do you go on the roof? | Yes. Cap, crown and flashing are where the expensive damage starts. | Ground level only. |
| Who shows up? | Our own technicians, a local company insured in Texas. | Subcontractor crews from Austin or out of state. |
| Will you tell me if I don’t need it? | Yes. About one in five inspections ends with “you’re fine.” | The truck came out, so something will be sold. |

Leave a number and we call you back within the hour to set a window. The inspection costs nothing and you decide afterwards.
It depends on the fireplace, the flue and what the inspection finds, which is exactly why we inspect first. You get a written per-line price before anything is touched, and the inspection itself is free.
Yes. We check the firebox, look up the flue, photograph what we find and hand you a written quote. If it is clean, we say so. Roughly one in five inspections ends with no work sold.
An inspection is under an hour. A sweep takes one to two hours, a gas fireplace service about an hour, a dryer vent cleaning about 30 minutes.
Yes. Burner, pilot, logs, glass and venting, once a year, and we fix the ones that will not light.
