Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed
Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

AfterChimney Cleaning in Trophy Club, TX
Chimney cleaning in Trophy Club typically costs $180-$340 for a standard prefabricated unit inspection and sweep, with most jobs completed in a single visit. Because Trophy Club’s homes are almost entirely prefabricated zero-clearance fireplaces rather than traditional masonry, the work centers on chase cover condition, refractory panel integrity, and proper venting - not creosote removal alone. Call (940) 373-6912 for a written estimate before any work starts.
We’re Emberly Chimney Cleaners, and we’ve built our practice on the Haven Standard since 2009. That means a camera-scan inspection on every visit, a written price before anyone touches your system, and a documented photo record you keep. In Trophy Club, where 30-year-old prefab units are aging out across entire subdivisions, that documentation matters more than ever.
Why Trophy Club Homes Are Different
Trophy Club was developed as a planned golf-course community from the late 1980s through the 2010s. Nearly every residential fireplace here is a prefabricated zero-clearance unit with a galvanized sheet-metal chase enclosure, not a brick chimney. These systems were never designed to last forever, and the oldest ones - those early-1990s builds near the golf course - are now at or beyond their manufacturer’s recommended service life.
Our North Texas climate doesn’t help. With only 10-20 genuinely cold days per year, Trophy Club fireplaces sit idle for 9-10 months. Chimney swifts, a federally protected migratory species common in the DFW area, nest in uncapped flues. Squirrels do too. Then February 2021’s winter storm Uri forced rarely-used prefab units into continuous operation for days, stressing fireboxes and dampers never designed for extended burns.
The result: rust-seized or blown-off chase covers, water pooling inside chases, and rotted firebox panels that homeowners mistake for roof leaks. The defining chimney service need in Trophy Club is component replacement and chase restoration, not traditional creosote sweeping.

BeforeAfterChimney Cap & Crown in Trophy Club
Chase cover failure is the single most common chimney problem we find in Trophy Club’s original 1990s-era sections. The galvanized sheet metal has simply reached end of life, allowing water to pool inside the chase and rot firebox panels in a way homeowners typically attribute to a roof leak. Chimney Cap & Crown work here means replacing factory-grade materials with components sized to your specific chase dimensions, documented with before-and-after photos under Haven Standard Clause 4.
Cap Replacement
Signs you need it
Stains on your chase siding, rust streaks below the cap, or visible gaps where the cap has lifted or blown off entirely.
What it costs in Trophy Club
Cap replacement in Trophy Club typically runs $280-$520 depending on chase dimensions and whether the chase top needs reframing.
How we do it
We measure your chase opening, fabricate or source a stainless steel or copper cap to fit, seal all penetrations, and photograph the installation for your record.
Crown Coating
Signs you need it
Hairline cracks in a masonry crown, water pooling after rain, or interior flue tile damage from freeze-thaw cycling.
What it costs in Trophy Club
Crown coating application in Trophy Club ranges from $340-$680 for standard residential crowns up to 36 inches.
How we do it
We clean the existing crown, apply a flexible elastomeric coating rated for thermal expansion, and verify proper drainage slope before signing off.
What Chimney Cap & Crown Costs in Trophy Club
| Item | Typical range in Trophy Club |
|---|---|
| Cap replacement (standard chase) | $280-$520 |
| Crown coating | $340-$680 |
| Chase top reframing + cap | $520-$940 |
How long does a chase cover last in Trophy Club?
Factory-galvanized chase covers installed in the 1990s and 2000s typically fail in 15-25 years in our climate; Trophy Club’s oldest units are well past that window. Call (940) 373-6912 for a free inspection - we’ll show you exactly what yours looks like.
Can I just caulk around my existing cap?
Caulk hides rust and won’t stop a failing cap from admitting water; replacement is the only repair we warranty. We deliver a written price before any work starts, and every cap replacement carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Chimney Liner & Rebuild in Trophy Club
Prefabricated fireboxes in Trophy Club’s 1990s-era homes are aging out simultaneously, and when the factory-built unit reaches end of life, replacement with a properly sized liner system is often the safest path. Storm Uri proved these units weren’t designed for extended burns; cracked refractory panels and distorted firebox wrappers are now common findings. Chimney Liner & Rebuild work in Trophy Club means evaluating whether your chase can accept a new listed system or needs structural modification.
Stainless Steel Liner
Signs you need it
Your prefab unit is condemned but the chase structure is sound, or you’re converting to a listed insert that requires a dedicated liner.
What it costs in Trophy Club
Stainless steel liner installation in Trophy Club typically ranges $1,800-$3,400 for standard residential flues up to 25 feet.
How we do it
We measure the flue, select a DuraFlex or Olympia Chimney liner sized to your appliance listing, pull it through with proper insulation and top-sealing, and pressure-test the connection.
Partial Rebuild
Signs you need it
Chase siding is intact but the firebox wrapper, refractory panels, or smoke chamber is compromised beyond safe operation.
What it costs in Trophy Club
Partial rebuild of a prefabricated chase system in Trophy Club runs $2,400-$4,800 depending on component availability and chase height.
How we do it
We document the existing chase dimensions, source listed replacement components through Haven’s buying network, and rebuild to manufacturer specifications with photo documentation at each stage.
What Chimney Liner & Rebuild Costs in Trophy Club
| Item | Typical range in Trophy Club |
|---|---|
| Stainless steel liner | $1,800-$3,400 |
| Partial rebuild (prefab chase) | $2,400-$4,800 |
| Full chase and firebox replacement | $4,200-$7,600 |
Can I keep using my 1990s prefab fireplace?
If the refractory panels are cracked or the firebox wrapper is distorted, the manufacturer’s listing is void and continued use creates a fire risk; we document the condition and deliver a written scope for safe replacement. Call (940) 373-6912 for a camera inspection - estimates are free.
How long does a liner installation take?
Most residential stainless steel liner installations in Trophy Club are completed in one to two days, with the chase prepped and components staged beforehand; we text when the crew is en route under Haven Standard Clause 2.
Brands We Service in Trophy Club
We stock and install components from Gelco, Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield, procured through Haven’s buying network to keep customer prices honest. Most chase covers and liner kits are available within 2-3 business days. our brands
