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 East Point Homes Are Different
East Point’s housing stock skews heavily toward brick ranches and cottages built between 1940 and 1970. A lot of those original chimneys were built with narrow clay flue tiles and shallow fireboxes, and many never got proper caps. That means water has been getting in for a long time. In East Point’s hot, humid summers, condensation forms inside the chimney and mixes with creosote, turning it into an acidic slurry that eats away at mortar joints. Add frequent afternoon thunderstorms that erode the exterior brick, and you’ve got a recipe for spalling brick and hidden flue cracks that a homeowner would never see from the ground.
In the Jefferson Park and Conley Hills neighborhoods, we regularly find original clay flue liners cracked in a stair-step pattern. That pattern comes from years of rapid heating and cooling during Atlanta’s winter cold snaps. A chimney that looks fine from the outside can have significant internal damage that only a camera inspection catches. This is not a situation where you can guess. If you own a 1950s brick ranch in East Point, your chimney needs a trained eye at least once a year.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main East Point Services
Most East Point calls start with one of two things: a homeowner who hasn’t had the chimney cleaned in years and wants it done before burning season, or a homeowner with water stains on the ceiling near the fireplace who needs to know if the flue is cracked. Here are the three services we provide in East Point, each with its own detailed page.
Chimney Sweep in East Point
A proper sweep in East Point removes creosote, soot, and any debris that’s dropped down an uncapped flue. The humid climate here makes creosote stickier and more corrosive than in drier regions, so we pay particular attention to the smoke shelf and damper, where buildup tends to hide. We use drop cloths, HEPA filtration, and leave the hearth cleaner than we found it. See Chimney Sweep in East Point for pricing and what to expect.
Chimney Inspection in East Point
Because of the stair-step cracking we see in East Point’s older clay liners, we recommend a Level 2 camera inspection for any home built before 1980 that has not had one recently, especially before a real estate transaction or after a chimney fire. The camera shows you exactly what’s inside, so you’re not taking anyone’s word for it. Visit Chimney Inspection in East Point for the full breakdown of what each inspection level covers.
Fireplace Repair in East Point
Water intrusion is the big repair driver in East Point. Missing caps, deteriorated flashing, and cracked crowns let rain into the chimney, and by the time you see the ceiling stain, the damage is already done. We repair flue liners, rebuild fireboxes, replace dampers, and cap chimneys properly, always with a written guarantee on the work. See Fireplace Repair in East Point for the repair services we offer and how the guarantee works.

What East Point Customers Say
"Had them out for the yearly sweep before we start burning. He put down a drop cloth, swept it clean, and actually showed me the inside of the flue on a little camera. No mess, no surprises on the bill."
- Bill Prentice"Smoke kept rolling back into the living room every time we lit a fire. Turned out the cap was half blocked with a bird's nest. He cleared it and explained why it was happening. Fire draws perfectly now."
- Megan Alvarez"Had them sweep and check the chimney before we listed the house. Clean report, no soot anywhere, and the buyer's inspector had zero questions. Painless."
