Costs

Chimney Sweeping & Repair cost in Murfreesboro

Typical Murfreesboro range: $100 - $3,200 per job. Reflects Tennessee labor and material costs. Estimate for planning, not a quote - call (844) 624-3161 for a written scope.

Long cooling seasons and heavy summer rain drive the two problems we see most here: moisture getting into assemblies, and anything that traps it staying wet.

Creosote is what burns in a chimney fire. Third-degree creosote is glazed and hot enough to crack flue tile, and removing it is the entire point of an annual sweep.

Most chimney leaks are not the brick. They are a failed crown, missing cap or bad step flashing where the stack meets the roof - which is why repointing a chimney that leaks through the crown fixes nothing.

Round wire chimney brush, flexible sweeping rods, a vacuum hose and a bucket on a drop cloth in front of a brick fireplace.

What the job includes

  • Annual sweeping and creosote removal
  • Level 1 and Level 2 inspections
  • Stainless cap and crown repair
  • Flue liner installation
  • Flashing and leak repair
  • Dryer vent cleaning
