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 Cedar Park, TX
Chimney repair in Cedar Park usually means one thing: a prefab metal fireplace that’s never been touched since the house went up in the 1990s or 2000s. Boardwalk Chimney Sweep has served Cedar Park since 2011, and most of what we find are chase caps rusted through from Texas storms, flashing that’s pulled loose, or flue liners nobody’s looked at in 15 years. We repair what we inspect, using the same brands chimney professionals specify. Call (877) 274-1247 when you’re ready to get eyes on yours.
Why Cedar Park Homes Are Different
Cedar Park is mostly master-planned subdivisions of brick-veneer tract homes built between the 1990s and 2010s. The fireplaces in these houses are factory-built prefab metal units inside chase-style chimneys, not traditional masonry hearths. That changes the job. We’re not tuckpointing century-old brick; we’re inspecting metal flues, fireboxes, and caps that a production builder installed in high-volume tract construction. Only the older pockets near the original town center have anything resembling conventional brick masonry.
The climate adds another layer. Central Texas gives Cedar Park long, hot summers and only a few cold snaps a year, so fireplaces burn episodically. Creosote sits undisturbed between infrequent fires, and humidity plus summer storms drive water into chase tops and around flashing. A lot of Cedar Park calls are the homeowner’s first cleaning ever since the house was built, and we routinely find the original factory flue still in place with pest nests or storm-damaged chase caps on roofs exposed to open Texas wind.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Cedar Park Services
Two services drive most Cedar Park calls: chimney sweeping for prefab fireplaces that have never seen a brush, and dryer vent cleaning for exhaust lines packed with lint in hot, humid conditions. Here’s what each involves in Cedar Park.
Chimney Sweep in Cedar Park
Most Cedar Park chimneys are prefab metal systems, so a sweep here isn’t just brushing flue tiles. We inspect the entire chase: cap, crown, flashing, firebox, and the factory flue pipe, looking for the water intrusion and pest nesting that are common in these tract-built subdivisions. Creosote from occasional burning still needs removal, even in a mild climate, because it sits and hardens between cold snaps. Full details are on our dedicated page: Chimney Sweep in Cedar Park.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Cedar Park
Dryer vents in Cedar Park homes often run long horizontal distances through walls and attics, which means lint builds up faster and the humid Texas air makes it cling. The NFPA identifies dryer exhaust fires as a serious household risk, and we address that in the same appointment window as a chimney sweep. One call, two fire hazards addressed. Get specifics on Dryer Vent Cleaning in Cedar Park.

Chimney Repair in Cedar Park
Chimney repair in Cedar Park usually traces back to two things: a chase cap that leaked or blew off during a storm, and a prefab flue liner that’s spent 15 or 20 years untouched. Because these homes were built in big subdivisions with production-schedule materials, the original caps and flashing are often builder-grade and past their useful life by now. We replace them with the same brands chimney professionals specify, and we can resurface a failing liner with Chimney Repair methods that don’t always require a full teardown.
Chimney Cap Installation
Signs you need it
Rain inside the firebox, a rusted or missing cap, or evidence of birds or squirrels in the chase usually means the cap is gone or compromised.
What it costs in Cedar Park
Chimney cap installation in Cedar Park typically runs $300 – $600 for a standard prefab chase cover with the necessary screening.
How we do it
We measure the chase opening, source a cap from Olympia Chimney or Famco that fits the existing flue, and secure it with the correct fasteners and sealant.
Chimney Liner Installation
Signs you need it
Flue tiles you can see cracking from the top, a failed level 2 inspection, or gas exhaust smells inside the home point to liner failure.
What it costs in Cedar Park
Chimney liner installation in Cedar Park typically runs $1,800 – $3,200 for a DuraFlex flexible liner in a standard single-flue prefab chase.
How we do it
We measure the flue path, install a DuraFlex liner sized to the appliance, and connect the termination cap with the proper transition hardware.
What Chimney Repair Costs in Cedar Park
| Item | Typical range in Cedar Park |
|---|---|
| Chimney cap installation | $300 – $600 |
| Chimney liner installation | $1,800 – $3,200 |
| Chimney flashing repair | $325 – $750 |
Costs climb when the chase top needs custom fabrication, when the liner path is offset and requires a longer flexible run, or when storm damage means roofing repair coordination alongside the chimney work.
Do I really need a new liner, or can it be fixed?
Often it can be resurfaced. HeatShield resurfacing bonds a ceramic coating to the existing flue and can extend liner life for years without full replacement. We’ll show you camera footage of the actual condition before recommending anything.
How do I know if my chimney cap is actually bad?
Rust perforation, water stains inside the firebox, or visible gaps around the flue pipe are the common tells. A cap that’s lasted 15 years on a Cedar Park roof has probably exceeded its builder-grade lifespan. We can tell you on site whether replacement is needed or if it can wait.
Brands We Service in Cedar Park
We work with HeatShield for liner resurfacing, Gelco and Olympia Chimney for chase caps and terminations, and Famco for components. These are the brands chimney professionals specify, which means parts and support are reliable rather than whatever’s on a big-box shelf. Our brands page lists the full lineup.

FAQs About Chimney Company in Cedar Park
Some Cedar Park HOAs require approval for visible exterior changes like a new chase cap, especially in master-planned subdivisions. We’ll tell you what’s visible from the street and what typically needs paperwork before you schedule anything that might draw a notice.
Most Cedar Park calls are scheduled within a few business days, though peak-burn season before the first cold snap fills faster. If you’re seeing water after a storm, call sooner rather than later, since the damage compounds while the cap sits open.
