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
Chimney cap and crown work in Roswell typically runs $450-$1,800 depending on whether we’re sealing surface cracks or pouring a new concrete crown. Most Roswell calls start with a camera inspection that finds crown spalling or a missing cap after heavy rain. If you’re seeing water stains on the ceiling near your fireplace or finding brick flakes in the firebox, call us at (678) 679-0171 and we’ll get a technician out with a written price before any work starts.
Why Roswell Homes Are Different
Roswell’s building boom between 1980 and 1998 filled subdivisions like Martins Landing, Horseshoe Bend, and Brookfield Country Club with zero-clearance prefabricated fireplaces now hitting 30-40 years of age. These units were built with 20-30 year manufacturer lifespans, which means Roswell has one of the densest concentrations of end-of-life prefab systems in the north Atlanta suburbs.
The Chattahoochee River valley traps humidity against chimney masonry. On wooded lots near the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area, we see accelerated spalling, mortar joint erosion, and moss growth on exposed crowns that newer Alpharetta or Johns Creek builds simply don’t match. Georgia’s mild winters compound the problem: homeowners burn short, low-temperature fires that never fully volatilize creosote, leaving stage-two glazed buildup despite infrequent use. Many 1990s subdivisions converted to gas logs in the 2000s without re-inspecting flues, leaving dampers propped open and unlined flues serving gas appliances.
Our Main Roswell Services
These are the three services Roswell homeowners call us about most often.
Chimney Sweep in Roswell
Our NFPA 211 Level 2 inspection with camera scan finds what standard sweeps miss in Roswell’s aging prefab systems. We document creosote class, firebox panel condition, and damper operation, then deliver a written price before any cleaning or repair work begins. Every visit includes a photo record under Haven Standard Clause 4. Chimney Sweep in Roswell
Chimney Repair in Roswell
Roswell’s humidity-damaged crowns and spalling brick require specific repair protocols for river-valley conditions. We source materials through our Haven buying network and quote crown repair, tuckpointing, and masonry rebuilds in writing before starting. Camera documentation shows you exactly what failed and why.

Fireplace Services in Roswell
End-of-life prefab fireboxes in Martins Landing and Brookfield Country Club need panel replacement, not just cleaning. We inspect gas log conversions for proper flue sizing and damper operation, then quote firebox repair or insert replacement with a written scope and warranty. Fireplace Services in Roswell

BeforeAfterChimney Cap & Crown in Roswell
Roswell’s humidity-laden river valley destroys chimney crowns faster than almost anywhere in metro Atlanta. The combination of 1980s-1990s construction, dense hardwood canopy, and trapped moisture means we replace or coat more crowns per capita here than in neighboring cities. A proper cap and crown job starts with a camera inspection to rule out hidden flue damage, then moves to documented repair with materials sourced through our Haven buying network. Chimney Cap & Crown work is where most Roswell chimney projects begin.
Crown Repair
Signs you need it
Water pooling on the crown after rain, visible cracks wider than a dime, or brick flakes collecting in the firebox.
What it costs in Roswell
Crown repair typically runs $650-$1,200 depending on crack depth and whether the crown is poured concrete or precast.
How we do it
We grind out cracks to sound concrete, apply bonding agent, and pour new crown material with proper slope and drip edge.
Crown Coating
Signs you need it
Hairline cracking across the crown surface with no structural separation yet, or minor spalling with intact base concrete.
What it costs in Roswell
Crown coating runs $450-$850 for surface preparation and flexible sealant application.
How we do it
We clean and etch the crown, then apply a vapor-permeable flexible coating rated for freeze-thaw cycling.
What Chimney Cap & Crown Costs in Roswell
| Item | Typical range in Roswell |
|---|---|
| Crown coating | $450 - $850 |
| Crown repair | $650 - $1,200 |
| Cap installation (single flue) | $280 - $550 |
Can a cracked crown wait until next season?
No. Water entering through crown cracks freezes and expands, turning a $650 coating job into a $1,800 rebuild. We document the damage with camera footage and quote repair in writing before you decide.
Do I need a cap if my crown looks fine?
Yes. Caps stop rainwater, animal entry, and debris that accelerate flue deterioration. A $280-$550 cap prevents liner damage that costs ten times more to fix.
Chimney Liner & Rebuild in Roswell
Roswell’s 1990s gas log conversions left hundreds of unlined flues serving appliances they were never designed for. The zero-clearance prefab units in Horseshoe Bend and Brookfield Country Club reached end-of-life with original liners cracked by thermal cycling or corroded by gas condensation. We run a camera to map the damage, then quote liner replacement or partial rebuild with a written scope and materials list.
Stainless Steel Liner
Signs you need it
Flue tiles found cracked or missing during camera inspection, or gas appliance venting into an unlined masonry flue.
What it costs in Roswell
Stainless steel liner installation runs $2,800-$4,500 for a typical Roswell chimney.
How we do it
We measure the flue with video scan, drop a properly sized flexible stainless liner, and connect it to the appliance with listed components.
Partial Rebuild
Signs you need it
Spalling brick above the roofline, leaning stack, or separated courses visible from the ground or camera.
What it costs in Roswell
Partial rebuild from the roof up typically runs $3,500-$6,500 depending on height and scaffold requirements.
How we do it
We dismantle to sound masonry, rebuild with matched brick, and install proper crown and cap before final camera verification.
What Chimney Liner & Rebuild Costs in Roswell
| Item | Typical range in Roswell |
|---|---|
| Stainless steel liner | $2,800 - $4,500 |
| Flexible liner | $2,200 - $3,800 |
| Partial rebuild | $3,500 - $6,500 |
Does a gas log conversion need a liner?
Yes. Gas appliances produce acidic condensation that destroys unlined masonry flues. We camera-inspect converted systems and quote liner installation with a written price before work starts.
How long does a liner installation take?
Most Roswell liner jobs finish in one day. We arrive with materials, complete the installation, and leave you with camera documentation and a written warranty under the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Brands We Service in Roswell
We stock caps, liners, and repair materials from HeatShield, Gelco, and Olympia Chimney through our Haven buying network, with Famco components available for specialized venting. Most Roswell jobs use parts already on our trucks, so we quote and complete work without waiting on orders. See our brands for full specifications.

FAQs About Chimney Cleaning in Roswell
Most crown and cap work doesn’t require permitting, but partial or full rebuilds typically need a Roswell building permit. We handle permit applications as part of our written scope when required, and we document code compliance with photos for your records.
Standard inspections usually book within 2-4 business days. Emergency calls for water infiltration, suspected flue blockages, or post-chimney-fire assessment get priority scheduling. Call (678) 679-0171 and a live person will find the next available slot.
Yes. Pre-Civil War and early-20th-century masonry chimneys need longer inspection time and specialized restoration techniques. We allocate extended camera time and quote restoration-level work separately from standard prefab service.
