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 Jonestown, TX
Chimney repair in Jonestown usually means fixing what the Hill Country has done to an older masonry fireplace or a prefab metal system: cracked crowns, clogged or corroded caps, flashing that has pulled away from a steep cedar-shaded roofline, and flue liners deteriorated by years of intermittent burning. Resolute Chimney Sweep has served Jonestown since 2014, and our crews know the difference between a fireplace that needs a quick sweep and one that needs structural work before it is safe to burn again. Call (877) 644-8036 for a repair assessment or a home safety inspection.
Why Jonestown Homes Are Different
Jonestown is a small Lake Travis town in the 78645 ZIP code where most homes sit on large, heavily wooded Hill Country lots full of live oak and Ashe juniper. That vegetation drives a lot of the chimney work we do here. Cedar pollen cakes onto caps and spark screens every spring, then summer storms drive leaf litter and branches into the same places, and by fall squirrels and birds have often turned a clogged cap into a nest. A chimney in Jonestown is not just dealing with creosote; it is dealing with vegetation intrusion, wildlife, and a part-time burn schedule that lets problems sit unnoticed for years.
The housing stock adds another layer. Many homes here were built between the 1970s and 1990s, with masonry fireplaces that have original clay tile liners and mortar crowns now well past their service life. Newer custom builds tend to have manufactured or prefab metal chimney systems on tall stacks, often on steep lots where roof access is difficult. Steep roofs, tall chimney stacks, and constant cedar shade are common, which means flashing, crowns, and caps take more weather and get inspected less often than they should.

Our Main Jonestown Services
Most Jonestown homeowners call us for one of two things, and often a single visit reveals they need both. These are the services that keep a wooden-lot fireplace safe through a Central Texas winter.
Chimney Sweep in Jonestown
A chimney sweep in Jonestown is as much a cap-and-screen clearing as it is a creosote removal. The spring cedar bloom and summer storms leave spark arrestors matted with pollen and leaf debris, and birds and squirrels move in fast. We remove the cap, clear the screen and flue, and run a camera inspection so you can see exactly what is inside. After years of intermittent burning, a flue can hold creosote that looks clean from the hearth but is not. For the full service detail, see Chimney Sweep in Jonestown.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Jonestown
Dryer vents and chimneys share the same stakes in Jonestown: a clogged exhaust path and a house full of combustible material. Lint accumulates inside the vent run, and on wooded lots the exterior vent hood often collects leaf litter and pine needles that block airflow. We pull the dryer, run a rotating brush through the full duct length, clean the hood and screen, and check for crushed or disconnected runs. One call covers the sweep, the vent, and any repair. See Dryer Vent Cleaning in Jonestown for the specific process and cost.

Chimney Repair in Jonestown
Chimney repair in Jonestown usually starts with something found during a sweep: a cracked crown, a rusted cap, flashing that has separated from the roof, or a clay liner that has spalled in the years since the last inspection. Homes here burn intermittently, so damage accumulates quietly, and hard freezes after humid summers work cracks wider each year. Resolute Chimney Sweep repairs what the sweep uncovers, using specification-grade components from Chimney Repair partners like DuraFlex and HeatShield rather than hardware-store substitutes. If we find damage during a cleaning visit, we can usually quote the repair the same day.
Chimney Cap Installation
Signs you need it
Water dripping into the firebox after rain, visible rust on an old cap, or birds and squirrels moving in and out of the flue are all signs a Jonestown chimney needs a new cap installed.
What it costs in Jonestown
Chimney cap installation in Jonestown typically costs $300 to $900, depending on chimney size, roof access, and whether we need to fabricate a bracket for an odd flue shape.
How we do it
We measure the flue opening, select a stainless steel or copper cap rated for the flue size, secure it to the crown with the right mechanical fasteners, and seal around the base so it stays put through Hill Country wind.
Chimney Cap Replacement
Signs you need it
A cap that has blown off in a storm, rusted through, or been torn up by a squirrel trying to get in needs replacement before water and animals take over the flue.
What it costs in Jonestown
Chimney cap replacement in Jonestown typically runs $250 to $650 for a standard single-flue stainless cap, with larger or custom multi-flue caps pushing the price higher.
How we do it
We remove the old cap, clean the mounting surface, verify the flue opening size, and install a replacement cap with the proper fasteners and a tight seal so it does not lift in a storm.
Chimney Liner Installation
Signs you need it
Cracked or missing clay tiles found during a camera inspection, smoke seeping through the mortar joints of the chimney, or a furnace or water heater venting into an old unlined flue are the telltale signs.
What it costs in Jonestown
Chimney liner installation in Jonestown typically costs $2,900 to $6,500 for a standard fireplace flue, with wood stove inserts and taller chimneys at the higher end.
How we do it
We measure the flue, pull the old tiles if they are ready to come out, drop in a DuraFlex stainless liner sized for the appliance, connect it to the appliance with the proper tee or collar, and seal the top with a cap and crown plate.
Chimney Flashing Repair
Signs you need it
Water stains on the ceiling near the chimney, peeling paint along the roofline, or visible gaps where the flashing meets the brick are signs the flashing has failed.
What it costs in Jonestown
Chimney flashing repair in Jonestown typically costs $400 to $1,200 depending on how much of the existing flashing can be salvaged and how steep the roof section is.
How we do it
We cut back the old step and counter flashing, inspect the underlayment beneath it, install new flashing with the proper overlaps, and seal the counter flashing into the mortar joints with a high-grade sealant that stays flexible through Central Texas heat and hard freezes.
Chimney Crown Repair
Signs you need it
Crumbled mortar along the top of the chimney, a concave crown that holds water, or spalling brick on the upper courses all indicate the crown is no longer shedding water.
What it costs in Jonestown
Chimney crown repair in Jonestown typically runs $600 to $1,800, depending on whether we can reseal and rebuild the existing crown or need to form and pour a new one.
How we do it
We chisel out loose material, form the crown so it slopes away from the flue and overhangs the brick, pour a new concrete surface with flexible sealant at the flue joint, and leave the top of the chimney watertight.

Prices in Jonestown shift with roof pitch, chimney height, and how much access clearing is needed on a wooded lot. The best way to know for sure is a camera inspection and a written quote before any work begins.
How much does chimney repair cost in Jonestown?
Chimney repair in Jonestown typically runs $250 to $1,800 for caps, flashing, and crown work, while a full chimney liner installation runs $2,900 to $6,500. The range depends on chimney height, roof access, and the condition of the existing masonry. We quote flat before we start, so nothing changes mid-job.
Do I need a new liner or can it wait?
If a camera inspection shows cracked or missing clay tiles, or smoke is seeping through the chimney’s mortar joints, the liner needs attention before the next fire. Liner damage lets heat and gas reach combustible framing. We show you the camera footage before quoting the repair, and we will tell you plainly if the liner can safely wait.
