Reece’s Klean Sweep was founded 26 years ago by Warren Reece. In 2006 Travis, Warren’s son, took over the company to carry on the family tradition of quality service to our customers. Today we have only 2 employees to maintain quality workmanship with great detail. We serve many realty companies, estates, and bed and breakfast operations in the Asheville area.
"Travis did an excellent job sealing off a square opening in fireplace that was originally for power and cable outlets. Replaced stacked stone facade to blend seamlessly with surrounding stone. He and his crew were professional, friendly, on time and efficient. Repair was priced very fairly."

"My deck had water damage on the face and at the bottom of a post that had rotted out on the lower level of our two story deck. The most substantial part of the repair itself to that particular area turned out ok. But that’s where my praise stops. He had a nice portfolio of pictures on Facebook. I didn’t call references. My error. I had to replace my deck rails after this business used a sawzall to cut them off to do repairs. The rails were screwed in and in good enough shape to unscrew and re-use. But no, he cut through them and ruined them. He attempted to screw them back in place and close the gaps, and in doing so broke off several screws. This was particularly irritating when I began my repairs to his shoddy work yesterday. I decided to install cable rails this week and had to make a number of modifications to prep. While doing the prep work, I discovered a rotted post. I took apart the face of the deck, which overlapped where he had made repairs. It seems he noticed more rot, and then decided to put it back together anyhow. There’s no way this could not have been noticed. He “sistered” one of the rotted floor joists with a piece of board about a foot long - instead of the typical 1/3 of the length of the original board required for proper sistering. My experience earlier this year: He did not have a contract, but I took him as a man of his word and trusted he would do right by me. He showed up without a ladder and needed to use a box of screws I had because he didn’t bring enough. He crushed in part of the metal deck ceiling, dislodged a retaining wall stone while using it as a saw horse, and dented in a copper post cap. He reassembled the facade beneath the deck in a manner that gave it the appearance of a dilapidated monster house. He then told me construction people do not reuse anything, and I should have anticipated having to replace it all, including the railing - which was screwed on cockeyed. Then, he left all the rotten wood, concrete and other trash laying in my yard and told me that was the homeowner’s responsibility to take care of. I’ve never experienced anything like this. My bad for not forcing a clear contract. I pause a little over $2000. For his work and I had to pay for all the wood at the home improvement/lumber stores. After some heated conversations, he ended up taking the trash. I delayed in writing a review because I felt like I failed to make him produce a contract and didn’t watch over him like a mother hen. I am very capable of doing most of my own work but was not comfortable with replacing a structural two story post. After discovering his shoddy, irresponsible work this week, I decided it was time to write a review. I cannot recommend this company for anything. Honestly, I wish this mother, grandmother, and great grandmother had just completed the job herself. I wasted my money, and this repair was not cheap. At least I know now the remains repairs are being done correctly. Wish I could post pictures here."

A properly constructed chimney crown using quality materials can last 50 to 70 years with appropriate maintenance. Poorly constructed crowns might need replacement in 20 years or less. Weather exposure, freeze-thaw cycles, and construction quality all affect longevity. Regular inspections and prompt repairs of minor issues can significantly extend your chimney crown's useful life and prevent more costly repairs down the road.
Homeowners' insurance covers sudden, accidental damage to chimney crowns from events like fallen trees or storm damage. However, gradual deterioration from age or lack of maintenance falls outside coverage parameters. Review your specific policy details, as coverage varies between insurers. Document any storm-related damage with photos and maintain records of regular chimney maintenance to support potential claims for weather-related damage.
The chimney crown forms the concrete or masonry covering across the entire top surface of your chimney, sloping away from the flue to direct water away. A chimney cap, by contrast, is a smaller component that fits directly over the flue opening to prevent animal entry and block sparks. While the cap protects just the flue opening, the crown safeguards the entire chimney structure from water penetration.
Professional chimney inspections should occur annually to evaluate crown condition along with other chimney components. Homeowners in regions with severe weather patterns or frequent freeze-thaw cycles might benefit from semi-annual inspections. A thorough inspection examines the crown for cracks, spalling, deteriorating mortar joints, and proper water drainage. Early detection of minor issues prevents them from developing into major structural problems.
A deteriorating chimney crown frequently leads to interior moisture problems. When water penetrates crown cracks, it can travel through the chimney structure into adjacent walls and ceilings. This moisture migration often results in stained drywall, peeling paint, and potential mold growth. Early intervention through crown repair or sealing prevents these secondary damages and protects your home's interior from water-related deterioration.
