Why Houston trusts us
Why homeowners call True Crest first
Chimney care that treats your home like it's our own.
Houston's humidity, heavy rainfall, and occasional freezes put real strain on brick, mortar, and flue liners. We built True Crest Chimney Expert around a simple idea: catch small problems before they become expensive ones, and be honest about which is which.
Straight answers, not upsells
Every inspection comes with photos and video from inside your flue, so you see exactly what we see before we recommend any work.
Trained on Houston chimneys
Coastal humidity, clay soil movement, and sudden hard freezes all affect masonry differently than they do up north — our crews are trained specifically for this climate.
Available when it counts
A cracked flue or a chimney fire doesn't wait for business hours. Neither do we — our dispatch line is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Our core services
Everything your chimney and venting system needs, under one roof.
Chimney Sweeping & CleaningMost requested
Creosote buildup is the leading cause of residential chimney fires. Our certified sweeps remove soot, creosote, and debris from your flue using rotary brushes and HEPA-filtered vacuums that keep your living room dust-free. We recommend a professional sweep at least once a year for wood-burning fireplaces and every two to three years for gas units.
Chimney Repair & Masonry Restoration
From spalling brick and cracked crowns to full rebuilds above the roofline, our masons repair chimney structures using materials matched to your home's existing brick and mortar profile. Common Houston repairs include tuckpointing, crown replacement, flashing repair, and liner replacement after years of moisture exposure.
Chimney Inspections
We perform Level 1, 2, and 3 inspections in line with National Fire Protection Association guidelines — whether you're buying a home, selling one, or simply want peace of mind before lighting your first fire of the season. Every inspection includes a written report and video documentation.
Chimney Cap & Damper Installation
A missing or damaged cap is one of the most common causes of water damage, animal intrusion, and downdrafts we find on Houston chimneys. We install stainless steel and copper caps built to withstand Gulf Coast weather, plus top-sealing dampers that improve energy efficiency year-round.
Chimney Fire Damage & Waterproofing
If you've had a chimney fire or suspect long-term water intrusion, we assess structural integrity, rebuild damaged sections, and apply vapor-permeable waterproofing sealant that keeps rain out while letting the masonry breathe — critical in Houston's wet, humid climate.
Dryer Vent Cleaning
Clogged dryer vents are a leading cause of house fires and drive up energy bills by forcing your dryer to work harder. We clear lint buildup from the full vent run, from the appliance to the exterior exhaust point.
What Houston homeowners say
Reliability, in their own words.
"They came out the same evening I called about a smoky fireplace, found a cracked liner, and had it fixed within the week. No pressure, no scare tactics — just a clear explanation and a fair price."
— Homeowner, Spring Branch, Houston
"Our chimney inspection ahead of closing on our house turned up a damaged crown. True Crest handled the repair fast so we didn't lose the sale timeline."
