Boulder homeowners choose David Anderson Chimney LLC because we deliver licensed, insured chimney sweeps with transparent pricing, same-day availability, and honest advice—no upsells, no surprises. We specialize in Superior, Louisville, and Lafayette homes, offering free estimates and clear cost breakdowns so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
1. Flat-Rate Pricing You Can See Before We Arrive
A chimney inspection is a visual and instrumental check of your flue, liner, and exterior to spot cracks, creosote buildup, or structural issues before they become costly emergencies. At David Anderson Chimney LLC, we publish flat-rate prices for common services so you’re never guessing. For example, a Level 1 inspection in Boulder starts at $129, and a full sweep with cap inspection is $249—no hidden climb charges or surprise fees. We’ll email your quote before booking, and if you’re in Superior, Louisville, or Niwot, we’ll match any written estimate from a licensed competitor. See our full pricing guide
2. Same-Day Appointments When You Need It Most
Boulder’s unpredictable spring weather and summer monsoons can leave ash and soot clogging flues overnight. That’s why we keep open slots for urgent appointments in Superior, Broomfield, and Erie. Most homeowners in Boulder County get a sweep scheduled within 48 hours, and we’ll text you a 2-hour arrival window the morning of your appointment. We show up on time, in marked trucks, and we’ll call if we’re running late—no ghosting like some outfits that overbook. Check summer availability
3. Licensed CSIA Technicians Who Explain What They Find
A Level 2 inspection includes a video scan of your flue and is required if you’ve had a chimney fire or structural change. Our CSIA-certified technicians use high-definition cameras to show you cracks, creosote layers, or missing mortar in real time. In Superior, we often find cracked terra cotta liners from 2000s-era builds—fixing those early saves thousands versus a full rebuild. We’ll email the footage and a plain-English report so you can decide on repairs without pressure. Meet our team
4. Free Cap Inspections and Discounts on Repairs
A chimney cap keeps out rain, pests, and embers—yet many Boulder roofs go uncovered. We inspect your existing cap for free during a sweep and offer $30 off stainless steel caps if you need one installed. In Louisville, we’ve seen squirrels chewing through unprotected chase tops, leading to costly water damage. Our caps start at $199 installed and come with a 10-year warranty against rust.

5. Waterproofing Add-Ons That Last Boulder’s Monsoons
Boulder’s summer thunderstorms can soak unsealed masonry in minutes, accelerating spalling and liner cracks. We apply a siloxane-based waterproofing that soaks into brick and mortar without changing its look or breathability. In Superior, homes treated in 2022 show zero water penetration after last year’s 2-inch downpours. The treatment costs $299 for an average Superior ranch and includes a 5-year performance guarantee.

6. Honest Advice on Repair vs. Replace in Boulder’s Older Homes
We see many 1970s split-levels in Superior with original clay-tile liners that are cracked but still serviceable. Our rule: if the liner is intact and the chimney passes a Level 2 inspection, relining with a stainless sleeve costs $1,200–$1,800 versus a full rebuild at $4,500+. We’ll show you photos of similar jobs in your neighborhood so you can compare apples to apples. Read our repair vs. replace guide
7. Local Presence and Community Roots You Can Trust
We’re not a national franchise parachuting into Boulder for the summer. Our crews live in Superior, Louisville, and Lafayette, and we sponsor the Superior Days festival each August. When you call, you’ll reach a neighbor who knows the unique challenges of Boulder County homes—from historic basements in downtown Superior to newer builds on Eldorado Springs Road. We keep spare parts on our trucks so you’re never waiting for a shipment. See where we serve
