Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.
Chimney Company in Mesquite, TX
Chimney cleaning in Mesquite usually costs between $169 and $239 for a standard sweep, and it’s the single best thing you can do before burning season hits. We’re Ashby Chimney Dallas, an independently owned chimney company operating under the Kingswell Guarantee since 2002. Most Mesquite homes we visit were built between the 1970s and early 2000s, which means a lot of original factory-built fireplaces and metal chimneys that have quietly aged past their prime. If you need a sweep, an inspection, or a repair, call (361) 314-3193 and we’ll give you a written price before any work starts.
Why Mesquite Homes Are Different
Mesquite’s housing stock tells a very specific story. Drive through neighborhoods like Creek Crossing, Valley Creek, or the older streets around Original Mesquite, and you’ll see brick ranch after brick ranch, most of them built between 1970 and 1995. What you can’t see from the curb is the prefab metal chimney behind that brick chase. These factory-built systems were engineered for a 20-to-30-year service life, and a lot of them are now 30 to 50 years old. When they fail, they fail in predictable ways: rusted chase covers, warped flashing, and creosote that accumulates faster in a metal flue than it does in a clay tile liner.
Mesquite winters are usually mild, but when a cold snap hits in January or February, homeowners run their fireplaces every night for two or three weeks straight. That concentrated use is exactly what builds creosote. Add in the spring storm season, where hail and high winds dent caps and loosen flashing, and you get a steady pattern of water intrusion around the chimney chase. In older east-side Mesquite neighborhoods, we regularly find chase covers rusted through after storm season, leaving water stains running down the brick below the roofline. None of this is unusual to us. We see it every week, and we explain exactly what we found with camera photos so you can see it too.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Mesquite Services
The two calls we get most from Mesquite homeowners are simple: “Can you clean my chimney before we start burning?” and “We found water stains around the fireplace. Can you tell us what’s wrong?” All three of our core services live on their own Mesquite pages so you can get the details without scrolling through a wall of text.
Chimney Sweep in Mesquite
Most Mesquite sweeps involve clearing creosote and soot from prefab metal flues, which need a gentler brush than masonry chimneys. We also remove the usual North Texas debris: bird nests, leaves, and the occasional squirrel stash. Because Mesquite fireplaces tend to get heavy use in short winter bursts, we recommend a sweep before the first cold snap rather than after. Creosote is flammable, and in factory-built chimneys it builds up faster than most people expect. See exactly what a sweep covers on our Chimney Sweep in Mesquite page. Every sweep includes a written price before we start and a written guarantee when we finish.
Chimney Inspection in Mesquite
Mesquite’s aging prefab chimneys are exactly why inspections matter here. We see rusted chase covers, cracked panels, and loose flashing on homes that look perfectly fine from the street. Our inspections use a camera so you can see what we see before you spend a dollar on repairs. If you’re buying or selling a home in Mesquite, especially a brick ranch from the 1980s or 1990s, an inspection can catch end-of-service-life issues before they become expensive surprises. Details are on our Chimney Inspection in Mesquite page. We always provide a written report with photos, and your inspection price is quoted upfront.
Fireplace Repair in Mesquite
When a Mesquite fireplace stops drafting properly or leaks during spring storms, the culprit is usually rusted metal above the roofline or a cracked firebox panel inside. We repair factory-built fireplaces with professional-grade materials from brands like DuraFlex and HeatShield, not whatever is closest to the van. The 365-Day Done Right Promise backs every repair we complete: if it fails within the guarantee period, we return and fix it at no charge. Our Fireplace Repair in Mesquite page walks through the most common repairs and what they cost. You will always get a written price before work begins.

What pushes a Mesquite chimney price higher is usually access. A two-story home with a steep roof pitch takes longer to set up safely than a single-story ranch. The other big one is age-related metal failure: a rusted chase cover that has been leaking for years often means water damage behind the brick that needs more than just a new cover. Whatever the quote, it is in writing before we start, and the invoice matches that quote. No surprises.

FAQs About Chimney Company in Mesquite
Most Mesquite appointments are scheduled within one to three business days. During the fall rush before burning season, the wait can stretch closer to a week. Call (361) 314-3193 and we’ll give you a real arrival window, not a four-hour “sometime today” range. We show up in the window we quote.
Most chimney sweeps and inspections require no permit in Mesquite. If your repair involves structural changes or a full liner replacement, we’ll tell you upfront whether a permit applies to your specific job. We never start work until you know exactly what’s happening and what it costs.
That’s common in Mesquite. Some leaks only show up after spring storms, and drafting problems often appear only during cold snaps. Take photos or notes when you notice the problem, and call us. We can schedule an inspection around the issue and often identify the cause without needing the problem to be actively happening that day.
