Most experts recommend an annual inspection. If you use your fireplace often, more frequent cleaning might be needed. This is true for homes in colder parts of Texas. We can assess your specific usage. This ensures your chimney stays safe and efficient.
The best time is usually in the spring or early summer. This is after the heating season ends. It allows time for any needed repairs before the next cold spell. Getting it done early in the year also avoids busy fall schedules in areas like Austin. This ensures you're ready for winter.
