Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed
Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

AfterChimney Cleaning Specials in Ellicott City, MD
If you’re looking for chimney cleaning specials in Ellicott City, call (443) 363-5262 and we’ll give you a written price before anyone steps foot in your home. Level Two Chimney Ellicott City runs seasonal offers because an honest price is the whole point of how we work, and a coupon shouldn’t be a gimmick to get a technician through your door. It should make a necessary job cost less, period. Every offer below follows the same rule we’ve held since 2009: the price is in writing, the scope is in writing, and the warranty is in writing, before work begins.
Current Offers
Written Price Before Any Work Starts, Always
This isn’t a seasonal special. It’s the way we operate on every single job. You’ll receive a written price, a written scope, and a written warranty before anyone starts, no exceptions, and never a “call for a quote” runaround. If you’ve ever had a technician stand in your living room and start adding line items, you’ll understand why we put it in writing first. Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (443) 363-5262.
Free Second Opinion on Any Written Estimate
If another Ellicott City chimney company has handed you a written estimate and you want a straight read on whether it’s fair, bring it to us. We’ll review it and give you our assessment for free. That includes estimates that recommend a new flue liner or a full rebuild when a repair might do the job. Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (443) 363-5262.
Camera-Scan Inspection Included With Every Cleaning
When we clean your chimney, we run a camera scan as part of the visit. You get a documented photo record showing exactly what we saw: creosote class, flue liner condition, crown integrity, all of it. That’s Clause 4 of the Haven Standard, and it’s been our practice on every job since 2009, not an upsell. Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (443) 363-5262.
First-Time Customer Courtesy
If you’ve never used Level Two Chimney Ellicott City before, tell us when you call. We’ll arrange a courtesy discount on your first cleaning or inspection visit. It applies to Ellicott City homeowners and the surrounding Howard County neighborhoods we serve, including Catonsville, Columbia, and Clarksville. Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (443) 363-5262.
Senior & Military Courtesy
We extend a standing courtesy to seniors and active-duty or retired military in Ellicott City and Howard County. Let us know when you book, and we’ll apply the discount to your written estimate. It’s a small thing, but it’s one we’ve done since day one, and it won’t be a surprise line item later. Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (443) 363-5262.
Free Second Opinion on Liner or Rebuild Recommendations
The most expensive words in the chimney trade are “you need a new liner.” Before you spend thousands, let us camera-scan the flue and show you what’s actually there. If the liner has another few seasons in it, we’ll say so plainly. If it’s spalling, cracked, or showing Class III creosote, we’ll show you the photos and name the cost. Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (443) 363-5262.
How to Redeem
Redeeming any of these Ellicott City chimney specials takes one phone call. Step one: call (443) 363-5262 and tell us which offer you’re calling about. Our phones are answered by a live person, not a voicemail, at any hour of the day or night. Step two: book a time that works, and we’ll assign a named, background-checked technician who shows up in uniform and sends a text when he or she is on the way. Step three: present your offer when the technician arrives, and your written estimate will reflect it before any work begins. You’ll walk away with a written price, a written scope, and a written warranty, plus the photo record we take on every visit.
BeforeAfterWhy Our Specials Don’t Follow the Usual Playbook
Most chimney company coupons are designed to get a technician inside the house, after which the upsell begins. That’s not a model we’re interested in. Since 2009, Level Two Chimney Ellicott City has completed more than 38,000 chimney inspections and cleanings, and every one of them came with a written price before work started and a documented record when it was done. We service all major chimney and liner brands, including DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield, sourced through a buying network that helps keep customer prices honest. When Corrine Halstead started this business, the goal was simple: name the finding, give the measurement or photo reference, then state the cost, in that order, every time. A creosote buildup doesn’t care how recently you had the flu, and it won’t negotiate. Neither do we, but we’ll always be straight with you about what’s actually urgent and what can safely wait.
Common Questions About Our Ellicott City Offers
How much does a chimney sweep cost in Ellicott City?
A standard chimney cleaning and sweep in Ellicott City typically runs between $180 and $340, depending on flue condition, creosote class, and whether animals have nested. Our price is locked in writing before work begins, so you’ll never watch a technician add costs in real time. If you have a written estimate from another company, bring it to us for a free second opinion before you commit. Call (443) 363-5262 for an exact quote, and mention any of the offers above.
Do I really need a new liner?
Maybe not. We camera-scan every flue and show you the photos before we recommend anything. A liner with cracked clay tiles or spalling may need replacement, but a liner with light surface creosote may be cleanable with a standard sweep. We’ll never recommend a rebuild from a photo we won’t show you. Call (443) 363-5262 and ask about the free second opinion on liner recommendations.
How often should a chimney be swept?
The National Fire Protection Association recommends a sweep whenever creosote buildup reaches 1/8 inch, and at least once a year if you burn regularly in Ellicott City. Our winters get cold, and our fireplaces get used. A camera-scan inspection on every visit means you’ll know the creosote class and what it means, without guessing. Call (443) 363-5262 to schedule, and ask about the first-time customer courtesy.
