Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

Why Camp Swift Homes Are Different
Camp Swift’s housing is mostly single-family detached homes on oversized lots, and a lot of those homes have masonry fireplaces that get real seasonal use. What we see on these jobs tracks closely with the climate: hot, humid summers, mild winters with the occasional hard freeze, and intermittent fireplace use from late fall through early spring. That irregular use pattern, combined with the humidity, does two things. First, it lets creosote, the tar-like residue that causes chimney fires, build up faster than homeowners expect. Second, moisture works into the flue during the months the fireplace sits dormant, and that moisture accelerates corrosion in the metal components and spalling in brick and stone.
Homes built in the 1980s and 1990s, which make up a solid portion of Camp Swift, often still have their original clay flue liners. Those liners crack under the temperature swings we get here, warm afternoons followed by near-freezing nights, and the cracks are nearly impossible to spot without a camera inspection. A cracked liner isn’t a cosmetic issue. It can let heat and combustion gases reach the wood framing around the chimney, and that’s a fire risk that hides until a routine sweep pulls the creosote away and exposes it. That’s one reason we push inspections harder in Camp Swift than we do in more urban parts of the metro.
Styles & brands we work with





Our Main Camp Swift Services
The three calls we take most often from Camp Swift homeowners are for chimney sweeps, full inspections, and gas fireplace repairs. Each has its own dedicated page, but here’s the short version of what each one involves out here.
Chimney Sweep in Camp Swift
A standard Chimney Sweep in Camp Swift removes creosote, soot, and any debris that’s accumulated since the last burn season. On Camp Swift homes with larger lots and mature trees, we also pull out leaves, twigs, and the occasional bird or squirrel nest from the flue. The job usually takes 60 to 90 minutes, and we work from the roof down, with drop cloths and a HEPA vacuum running so nothing spreads into the living space. Because humidity speeds creosote corrosion here, we recommend a sweep at least once a year for any home that burns more than a cord of wood per season.
Chimney Inspection in Camp Swift
A Chimney Inspection in Camp Swift uses a camera to look at the flue from top to bottom, checking for cracked clay liners, water damage, and gaps in the mortar joints. This is the service that catches the 1980s and 1990s liner failures we mentioned earlier, the ones that don’t show any visible signs until something’s already unsafe. Depending on the level of inspection, we may also check the crown, flashing, and firebox for water intrusion. Every inspection comes with a written report and photos, so you can see exactly what the camera saw and decide what’s actually urgent.
Gas Fireplace Repair in Camp Swift
Gas Fireplace Repair in Camp Swift covers pilot light failures, clogged burner ports, faulty thermocouples, and gas valve problems on factory-built and masonry gas fireplaces. We service and install parts from the brands chimney professionals specify, including DuraFlex, HeatShield, and Gelco, and we stock the most common replacement components so many repairs finish in a single visit. If your gas fireplace smells like gas or won’t stay lit, call us before you keep trying to relight it. Gas work is one of those things where a trained technician with the right diagnostic tools matters, and we’ll tell you plainly what’s wrong and what it costs before any work starts.

| Gas fireplace major component replacement | $349 – $749 |
A couple of things push Camp Swift prices toward the higher end of those ranges. Homes with taller chimneys or steep roof pitches take longer to set up safely, so the labor estimate goes up. Heavy glazed creosote, the kind that’s baked on from years of humid-season buildup, requires chemical treatments and more passes with the brush than a light accumulation. The thing to know is that whatever price we quote, it’s in writing before any tool comes off the truck. No surprise line items, no slow reveal. That’s how Ruben Castellano has run this from the start.
