Chimney sweep and repair in Sandy Springs, GA
Sandy Springs homes range from wooded 1960s and 70s ranches to newer builds along the river. We sweep, inspect and repair chimneys across the city, and the person who quotes your job is the person who does it.
What we see on chimneys in this area
A lot of Sandy Springs homes sit on heavily wooded lots near the Chattahoochee. That is beautiful, but it means leaves, pine needles and moisture all find their way into chimneys. Uncapped flues and damaged crowns are common, and so is the water damage that follows.
Many of the older ranch and split-level homes here have chimneys that are now fifty years old or more. Mortar joints and crowns of that age often need attention, and we can tuckpoint, rebuild crowns and replace flashing ourselves rather than referring you on.
If you are selling a Sandy Springs home or buying one, our Level 2 inspection includes a camera scan of the flue and a photo report you can share with your agent.
Chimney questions from Sandy Springs homeowners
Which Sandy Springs neighborhoods do you serve?
We work across Sandy Springs, including Riverside, North Springs, High Point, Mount Vernon Woods, Huntcliff, Dunwoody Springs and the City Springs area.
My Sandy Springs home is on a wooded lot. Does that affect my chimney?
Yes. Leaves, pine needles and moisture all find their way into chimneys on wooded lots near the Chattahoochee. A properly fitted cap and a sound crown are the best protection.
Do I need a chimney cap?
Almost certainly. Uncapped flues are common in Sandy Springs, and they let in rain, leaves and animals. A cap is a small part that prevents a lot of common chimney problems.
My ranch home's chimney is about 50 years old. What does it need?
At that age, mortar joints and crowns often need attention. We can tuckpoint worn joints, rebuild crowns and replace flashing ourselves, and we will show you photos of what we find first.
Do you do repairs yourselves, or refer them on?
We do them ourselves. Sweeping, inspection and repair are all done by the same team, so you are not passed between contractors.
What are the signs of water damage from a chimney?
Water stains on the ceiling or wall near the chimney, a damp smell from the fireplace, rust on the damper or water in the firebox after rain. If you notice any of these, have the chimney inspected before the damage spreads.
I am selling my Sandy Springs home. Which inspection do I need?
A Level 2 inspection. It includes a camera scan of the flue and a photo report on the spot that you can share with your agent and buyers.
My fireplace does not draw well and smoke comes into the room. Why?
Common causes include a partly closed damper, a dirty or blocked flue, a cold chimney or a flue that is too small for the fireplace opening. Tall surrounding trees or a nearby roofline can also affect the draft. An inspection finds the cause.
Who will actually do the work on my chimney?
We are owner-operated. The person who inspects your chimney and quotes the job is the person who does the work.
