New Braunfels' cool Comal County nights mean fireplaces get real use. Sweeppy cleans the full system before burning season. From $144. Call (210) 418-9810.
New Braunfels sits in the heart of the Hill Country, where cooler Comal County nights make a wood-burning fireplace worth using through the season. But a chimney that hasn't been cleaned collects creosote, and that buildup is what turns a cozy fire into a fire risk. Whether you're in an older home with original masonry or one of the many new builds going up near the Comal and Guadalupe rivers, Sweeppy gives your chimney a full sweep and a straight safety check before you light it.
Local Note for New Braunfels Homeowners
New Braunfels' fast growth means a wide mix of housing stock — from aging masonry chimneys in older homes to prefab fireplaces in new builds near the Comal and Guadalupe rivers. Both types need attention before burning season.

A newer prefab or gas fireplace won't build up creosote the way a wood-burning one does, so it usually doesn't need a full brushing. It does still need a safety inspection to confirm the flue, venting, and firebox are clear and installed correctly, which is exactly the kind of thing we check on the many new builds near the Comal and Guadalupe.
For a wood-burning fireplace used through those cool Hill Country nights, once a year before burning season is the standard, since that's when creosote from a winter of fires has built up. If you burn only occasionally, an annual inspection is still smart to catch masonry wear on older chimneys and confirm nothing has moved or cracked.
