Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed
Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

AfterChimney Cleaning in Roswell, GA
A Level 2 chimney inspection and cleaning in Roswell typically runs $199-$349 and includes a camera scan of the flue, a written condition report, and a photo record you keep. Most Roswell appointments are scheduled within a week, with crews dispatched from our Atlanta office. Call (678) 535-2204 for a written estimate before anyone arrives.
Roswell’s housing stock is split between aging prefabricated fireplaces in 1980s-90s subdivisions and historic masonry chimneys near Bulloch Hall that have never seen a camera. Both fail differently, and both need annual inspection under NFPA 211. We treat every Roswell job to the Haven Standard: written price first, camera documentation included, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise stamped on the invoice.
Why Roswell Homes Are Different
Roswell’s rapid build-out between 1978 and 1998 packed neighborhoods like Horseshoe Bend, Martin’s Landing, and the Woodstock Road corridors with zero-clearance prefabricated fireplaces now 25-45 years old.
The Chattahoochee River valley traps humidity, and Roswell’s winter pattern of wet 35°F nights cycling to 60°F afternoons destroys mortar and chase insulation faster than sustained freezes. Low-temperature smoldering fires, common here because “light use” feels safe, actually deposit sticky Stage 2 creosote faster than hot burns. In the historic district around Canton Street, we regularly find 1990s gas conversions with dampers left open and no cap, letting moisture and chimney swifts occupy the flue for years.
Our Main Roswell Services
These are the three services Roswell homeowners call about most often:
Chimney Cleaning & Sweep in Roswell
We remove creosote buildup and debris from flues serving wood-burning fireplaces, gas inserts, and prefabricated units across Roswell. Every sweep includes an NFPA 211 Level 2 camera inspection, a written condition report, and a photo record under Haven Standard Clause 4. In Horseshoe Bend and Martin’s Landing, we often find prefab chase covers rusted through from humidity cycling. Chimney Cleaning & Sweep in Roswell
Chimney Repair in Roswell
Our crews address spalling brick, deteriorated mortar joints, and water-damaged chase covers in Roswell’s varied housing stock. Historic-district masonry requires different tuckpointing mixes than 1990s prefab surrounds, and we specify materials accordingly. Every repair quote is written before work starts, with a photo record on completion. Chimney Repair in Roswell
Fireplace Services in Roswell
We service gas log sets, troubleshoot draft issues, and replace deteriorated refractory panels in prefabricated fireboxes throughout Roswell. Many gas conversions in older homes were done without capping the flue or sealing the damper, creating moisture and animal entry points we document with the camera. Fireplace Services in Roswell

AfterChimney Cap & Crown in Roswell
Roswell’s humidity-cycling climate and mature tree canopy make cap and crown work our most frequent repair category here. The combination of wet nights, mild afternoons, and decades of leaf debris produces accelerated concrete spalling and galvanized-cap rust, particularly in neighborhoods like Martin’s Landing where original builder-grade caps are now 30-plus years old. We install and replace caps and repair or coat crowns under the Haven Standard, with written price, written scope, and photo documentation on every job. Chimney Cap & Crown
Cap Replacement
Signs you need it
Rust streaks down the chase, visible holes in the mesh screen, or water dripping into the firebox during Roswell’s frequent winter rains.
What it costs in Roswell
Cap replacement typically runs $180-$450 depending on flue diameter and whether the chase top requires repair.
How we do it
We measure the flue or flues on site, fabricate a stainless steel or copper cap to fit, and secure it with masonry screws and high-temp sealant, then photograph the installation for your record.
Crown Repair
Signs you need it
Cracks wider than a dime, pieces of concrete missing, or a crown that slopes toward the flue instead of away from it.
What it costs in Roswell
Crown repair with pourable concrete or specialized crown coating ranges $350-$850 for typical residential chimneys.
How we do it
We grind out loose material, apply a bonding agent, and pour new crown mix or apply HeatShield or Gelco crown coating to spec, then document the finished surface with photos.
What Chimney Cap & Crown Costs in Roswell
| Item | Typical range in Roswell |
|---|---|
| Cap replacement (single flue) | $180-$450 |
| Crown repair / coating | $350-$850 |
| Multi-flue cap (custom fit) | $450-$950 |
Can a cracked crown wait until next season?
Small hairline cracks can be monitored, but cracks that let water reach the brick will freeze-thaw and widen through Roswell’s wet winters, turning a $400 coating into a $2,000 rebuild. We photograph the crack width and show you the progression risk.
Do you match cap finish to my roof?
Yes, we stock black, galvanized, stainless, and copper finishes from Olympia Chimney and Famco, and we can show samples before ordering. The Haven Standard requires your signed approval of the material spec before installation.
Chimney Liner & Rebuild in Roswell
Roswell’s split housing stock creates two distinct liner scenarios: historic-district clay tile liners, often serving multiple fireplaces through one flue, that have never been inspected; and prefabricated metal chimneys in 1980s-90s subdivisions that are reaching end-of-life and cannot be relined, only replaced. We install stainless and flexible liners and perform partial or full rebuilds, always with camera verification of the flue condition before quoting. Chimney Liner & Rebuild
Stainless Steel Liner
Signs you need it
Clay tile chunks in the firebox, visible gaps between tiles on camera, or a liner rated for oil/gas in a now-wood-burning fireplace.
What it costs in Roswell
Stainless steel liner installation ranges $2,200-$4,500 depending on flue height, diameter, and whether the appliance connection requires modification.
How we do it
We drop a video camera to assess tile condition, measure the flue precisely, then install a DuraFlex or Olympia Chimney stainless liner with proper top and bottom connections, insulating wrap where code requires, and a final camera pull to verify integrity.
Partial Rebuild
Signs you need it
Spalled brick above the roofline, a leaning chimney stack, or mortar so deteriorated that the liner is no longer supported.
What it costs in Roswell
Partial rebuild of the upper chimney structure typically runs $1,800-$4,000, separate from any liner work below.
How we do it
We scaffold to the affected area, remove damaged brick and mortar to sound substrate, rebuild to original dimensions with matching brick where possible, and install a new cap and flashing before documenting with photos.
What Chimney Liner & Rebuild Costs in Roswell
| Item | Typical range in Roswell |
|---|---|
| Stainless steel liner | $2,200-$4,500 |
| Partial rebuild (above roof) | $1,800-$4,000 |
| Full chimney rebuild | $6,500-$14,000 |
Can you reline a prefabricated fireplace?
No, factory-built units are listed systems that cannot be modified; when the metal chase or firebox fails, the entire unit must be replaced to manufacturer specs. We document the failure mode on camera and provide a written replacement scope.
How long does liner installation take?
Most residential stainless liner jobs in Roswell are completed in one day, with a second day for any required masonry repair or appliance reconnection. We confirm the schedule in writing before starting.
