Collins & Flores Chimney Co provides chimney sweep services in Englewood, including level 1 chimney inspection, chimney sweeping & cleaning, masonry repairs & repointing, and more.

A Level 1 inspection meets NFPA 211 standards and is the minimum required before every burn season. We climb onto your roof, remove the cap, and use a specialized camera to scan the flue for creosote buildup, cracks, or blockages. No dismantling—just a fast, thorough look at what’s happening inside your chimney. We document findings with photos and a written report so you know exactly what’s safe and what needs attention before you light the first fire of fall. Ideal for routine maintenance and homes with no recent changes.
Request this service →Creosote is the sticky, tar-like residue that coats your flue every time you burn wood. Left unchecked, it hardens into a glaze that blocks airflow and can ignite—a leading cause of chimney fires in Englewood’s older neighborhoods. Our rotary brush system and HEPA vacuums clear every inch of the flue, smoke chamber, and smoke shelf without leaving dust in your living room. We finish with a full sweep of the firebox and hearth so your next fire starts clean and stays safe all winter long.
Request this service →Englewood’s freeze-thaw cycles can turn small mortar cracks into major leaks that damage your chimney’s structure and your home’s interior. We diagnose water damage early by checking for white efflorescence on bricks and soft mortar joints. Our repointing crew removes deteriorated mortar and replaces it with a custom-mixed blend that matches your existing brick, restoring structural integrity and stopping leaks at the source. Fast, weatherproof repairs keep your chimney standing strong through Tennessee winters.
Request this service →A missing or damaged chimney cap is an open invitation for squirrels, raccoons, and driving rain—especially in Englewood’s wooded areas near Piney Creek. We install custom stainless-steel caps with mesh screens that block embers, leaves, and animals while allowing proper draft. Caps also reduce downdrafts that can push smoke back into your home. Installation takes under an hour and comes with a 1-year warranty against rust or animal intrusion.
Request this service →Brick is porous—it soaks up rain like a sponge, then freezes and cracks in winter. Our siloxane-based sealant penetrates deep to repel water without changing the look of your chimney. Applied after repairs, it adds years to your masonry and prevents costly repointing down the road. We treat only the exterior surfaces and leave no sticky residue. Works great on historic homes along Englewood’s Main Street corridor.
Request this service →Carbon monoxide is odorless and invisible—it doesn’t announce itself until it’s too late. We test your flue for spillage during a burn and inspect your CO detector placement and function. If levels are elevated, we identify the source—often a cracked flue liner or blocked chimney—and recommend repairs before you ever smell smoke. Included with every Level 1 inspection or available as a standalone service for Englewood homes with older furnaces or wood stoves.
