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 Hollywood, FL
If your fireplace has sat closed up since last winter, a chimney inspection in Hollywood is the first thing to book before you light it again. This is a city where fireplaces get used a handful of chilly nights a year and sit damp the rest of the time, so the surprises tend to be nests, mildew, and rusted dampers rather than heavy creosote. We handle inspection, sweeping, and repair as one connected job. Call (833) 974-6567 to set a time. We answer 24/7, with fast dispatch from 7am to 7pm.
Why Hollywood Homes Are Different
Hollywood is one of the few South Florida cities where chimney work is a real, steady trade. The original Hollywood-by-the-Sea development left a large stock of masonry fireplaces built between the 1920s and the 1950s, and the winter-resident homes added more. Those fireplaces get lit for a few cold snaps a season, not through a long heating winter, so most sweeps here run as a seasonal open-up rather than the soot-and-creosote grind you’d find up north.
The housing stock shapes everything. Much of the work is in Mediterranean-revival and ranch bungalows near downtown and the historic districts, with tile- or brick-lined flues that have sat through humid summers. A smaller share is 1970s and 1980s condo and townhome fireplaces with prefab metal flues. Subtropical humidity and salt air near the beach keep fireboxes damp for months, which is why mold, mildew, rust, and animal nesting show up far more than mid-winter buildup. Nine months of disuse is the norm, and hurricane season tests every cap and mortar joint in between.

Our Main Hollywood Services
Hollywood homeowners call us most often about two things: getting a dormant fireplace checked and cleaned before the season, and fixing whatever the inspection turns up.
Chimney Sweep in Hollywood
A Chimney Sweep in Hollywood here is usually less about soot and more about what moved in while the fireplace was shut. We clear bird and raccoon nesting, scrub mildew from the firebox, and free a damper that has rusted shut over the wet months. Because these flues see light use, we also check that the smoke chamber and cap are still doing their job after the summer storms. The result is a fireplace that draws properly the first time you light it instead of smoking into the room.
Chimney Repair in Hollywood
Repair work in this city tends to follow the inspection. Salt air and long humid stretches wear on mortar crowns, caps, and dampers, and prefab flues in the condo and townhome stock can rust through at the joints. Chimney Repair in Hollywood covers crown and cap work, damper replacement, and flue relining where the original liner has failed. We use HeatShield resurfacing when the flue can be restored rather than replaced, which keeps the cost down where the damage allows it.
Chimney Inspection in Hollywood
A chimney inspection in Hollywood answers one question: is this fireplace safe to light after months of disuse and a hurricane season? The 1920s to 1950s masonry fireplaces near downtown and the historic districts are the ones that need it most, because tile and brick flues absorb moisture through the humid off-season and crack quietly. Our Chimney Inspection documents what we find in writing, which matters when you’re renewing insurance, selling a home, or just want a record of the flue’s condition.
Fireplace Inspection
Signs you need it
You need a fireplace inspection if the firebox smells musty or smoky when you open it, if you see rust or white staining on the damper, or if the fireplace has gone a full season without being looked at.
What it costs in Hollywood
A fireplace inspection in Hollywood typically runs $99 to $250, depending on whether we’re checking a single firebox or the whole system.
How we do it
We inspect the firebox, damper, smoke chamber, and visible flue with a camera, note any cracking or moisture damage, and hand you a written report the same visit.
Level 2 Chimney Inspection
Signs you need it
A Level 2 inspection is the right call when you’ve changed fuel types, added a stove insert, bought the home, or had a chimney fire, since those situations call for a full video look at the flue interior.
What it costs in Hollywood
Level 2 inspections in Hollywood typically cost $150 to $400, with the upper end reflecting video camera work on longer or offset flues.
How we do it
We run a video camera the length of the flue, check every joint and offset, inspect the attic and roof-level connections where accessible, and document the findings with photos in the written report.

Do I need a chimney inspection before I start using my fireplace again?
Yes. After months of humidity and a storm season, a pre-season inspection is the only way to know the flue is clear and the damper works before you light a fire. Call (833) 974-6567 for an exact quote; estimates are free.
What does a chimney inspection include in Hollywood?
A full inspection covers the firebox, damper, smoke chamber, and flue, plus the cap and exterior where accessible, with findings written up and photos supplied. Call (833) 974-6567 to book one before the season starts.
Brands We Service in Hollywood
We name the materials we use, because the parts matter as much as the labor. Our inspections and repairs draw on HeatShield for flue resurfacing, Gelco and Famco for caps and top-sealing dampers, and Olympia Chimney for liner and venting components. Turnaround on most parts runs a few days once the estimate is approved. You can see the full lineup on our brands page.

What pushes cost up in Hollywood is the housing itself. Access on a Mediterranean-revival roofline, offset flues in older masonry chimneys, and the extra camera work those flues demand all add time. Because the fireplaces here see light use, we’re also honest when work can safely wait a season. You get the price upfront, in writing, before anything starts.

- Michael Sullivan"Cap keeps the birds out now, which after two springs of scratching noises is worth every penny."
