Remember the Memorial Day floods of 2015?

Central Texans know how quickly weather can turn serious.

The difference we’re seeing this time is the constant pressure on homes — weeks of heavy rain, hail, high winds, moisture, and repeated storms pounding structures over and over again.

And one of the most overlooked areas of the home during weather like this?

Your chimney system.

At Top Hat Chimney Sweeps, we’re already seeing:
• leaking chimney crowns
• cracked mortar joints
• flashing failures
• water intrusion around fireplaces
• moisture damage homeowners had no idea existed

Most homeowners think:
“If my roof isn’t leaking, I’m fine.”

But chimney systems sit above the roofline and take direct impact from rain, hail, temperature swings, and wind-driven moisture. Once water enters the chimney system, it can affect multiple connected areas of the home — walls, ceilings, framing, insulation, flooring, and even air quality.

The scary part?
Many chimney leaks stay hidden until the damage becomes expensive.

If you’ve noticed:
• musty odors
• staining near the fireplace
• visible cracking
• moisture around chimney areas
• rusting fireplace components
• dripping sounds during storms

…it’s time for an inspection.

Our chimney inspection is $195 + tax and designed to identify hidden leak concerns before they become major structural repairs.

Serving Central Texas homeowners since 1988 with transparency, education, and integrity.

You can’t always see danger… until someone looks deeper.

This is why chimney inspections matter.

These photos were taken during a recent chimney inspection, and what we found was hidden deep inside the flue system:
• Cracked chimney tiles
• Deteriorating mortar joints
• Structural separation inside the chimney liner

To the homeowner, everything looked “fine.”
From the outside, there were no obvious warning signs.

But inside the chimney, heat, moisture, age, and expansion had already started breaking the system down.

Here’s the danger:
When chimney tiles crack, heat can transfer into areas it was never meant to reach. During active fireplace use, temperatures rise rapidly. Over time, damaged flue tiles can continue separating or fail completely — increasing the risk of heat transfer, smoke leakage, carbon monoxide intrusion, or even a house fire.

And the truth is…
Most homeowners would never know this problem existed without a professional inspection.

That’s why we inspect.

Not to scare people.
Not to sell fear.
But to protect families and provide real peace of mind.

Yes, it’s summer.
But winter is coming.

Now is the best time to identify hidden hazards before cold weather, fireplace use, holiday gatherings, and emergency service calls begin.

At Top Hat Chimney Sweeps, we believe peace of mind is just a sweep away — and it always starts with an inspection.

Schedule your chimney and fireplace inspection today.
Your future self will thank you.

Today is National Chimney Sweep Day…
but for us, this isn’t just a day.

It’s a responsibility we’ve carried since 1988.

While a lot of companies add chimney services as a side offering…
or show up for a few cold days and disappear…

This is what we do. Every day. Every season. Every home.

Because a chimney isn’t just a structure.
It’s a system.

And when it’s not properly maintained, it doesn’t just affect performance…
it puts families at risk.

At Top Hat Chimney Sweeps, we don’t just “clean chimneys.”

✔️ We identify fire hazards most homeowners never see
✔️ We understand airflow, drafting, and system performance
✔️ We inspect for hidden damage, code issues, and safety risks
✔️ We educate homeowners so they feel confident—not confused

Because protecting your home isn’t about checking a box…
it’s about knowing what to look for and caring enough to do it right.

For over 35 years, families across Central Texas have trusted us not just because we show up…

…but because we show up with integrity, experience, and purpose.

So today, we honor the trade.
We respect the craft.
And we recommit to the mission:

Protecting homes. Protecting families. Delivering peace of mind.

If it’s been a while since your last inspection…
this is your sign.

🧹 Schedule today. Stay safe. Stay ready. 512-352-0313

🌧️ Central Texas Rain Is Here… But Is Your Chimney Ready? 🌧️

Most homeowners don’t think about their chimney when it rains…
Until it’s too late.

Here’s the truth:
💧 Chimney leaks are one of the most overlooked causes of hidden home damage.

Water doesn’t just drip into your fireplace where you can see it.
It seeps into areas you can’t see:
– Behind your walls
– Into your attic space
– Around your chimney structure
– Down into ceilings and insulation

And by the time you notice a stain…
🚨 the damage is already done.

What starts as a small leak can quickly turn into:
❌ Rotting wood structures
❌ Rusted chimney components
❌ Damaged drywall & ceilings
❌ Mold growth spreading through your home

That “musty smell” or small discoloration?
That’s often the late stage, not the beginning.

🔥 Your chimney is designed to vent fire safely…
but when water gets in, it silently destroys from the inside out.

The good news? This is preventable.

A simple inspection can catch:
✔ Cracked crowns
✔ Missing or damaged flashing
✔ Worn-out chimney caps
✔ Masonry deterioration
✔ Hidden moisture intrusion

👉 Don’t wait until you see the damage.
👉 Don’t wait until it becomes a costly repair.

Protect your home, your health, and your investment.

📅 Schedule your chimney inspection while the rain is exposing the problem—not hiding it.

Because peace of mind shouldn’t come after the damage… it should come before it.

🌧️ Central Texas… here comes the rain.

Meteorologist Avery Tomasco is already sounding the alarm—this upcoming El Niño season could bring rainfall levels we haven’t seen since 2015… and even back to the floods of 1996–97.

And while the lakes filling up sounds like good news… your home might be telling a different story.

Here’s what most homeowners don’t realize:

After a long drought, your chimney system has already been under stress.
Brick, mortar, and crown materials expand, contract, and dry out over time.

👉 Then the rain comes.
👉 And water doesn’t just “run off”… it finds its way in.

What does that mean for your home?

• Mortar joints begin to break down
• Small cracks turn into hidden entry points
• Water seeps into walls, ceilings, and attic spaces
• Damage builds quietly… until one day it’s not so quiet anymore

And here’s the part that surprises people the most…

🔥 This has NOTHING to do with whether you use your fireplace.

Your chimney is exposed to the elements 24/7.
Rain doesn’t care if you’ve lit a fire in years.

🏠 So what should you do?

Now—before the heavy rain hits—is the time to:

✔️ Have your chimney professionally inspected
✔️ Identify early signs of water intrusion
✔️ Apply proper waterproofing to protect your system

Because once you see water stains inside…
the damage has already been happening for a while.

💬 Peace of mind is just a sweep away… and it always starts with an inspection.

Let’s make sure your home is ready for what’s coming.
