The chimney sweep your neighbor recommended.
Draft Pro San Diego is a local, family-run chimney sweep and masonry company built on a simple idea: show up when you say you will, give an honest assessment with photos, and stand behind the work.
Who is Draft Pro San Diego?
There are plenty of chimney companies in San Diego County. Most fall into one of two camps: a handyman with a brush who disappears for three weeks, or a high-pressure outfit running a commission-driven script that tries to sell a $4,000 reline on every visit. Neither one works for a homeowner who just wants a safe fireplace and an honest answer.
We sit in the middle. Big enough to cover the whole county from Oceanside to Chula Vista with CSIA-trained sweeps and a C-29 licensed masonry crew. Small enough that you know the technician at your home and you can call the owner if something feels wrong.
Every tech trains on San Diego-specific conditions: salt-air corrosion of coastal mortar, thermal cycling cracks in inland crowns, heavy real-use creosote in East County and backcountry stoves, and the marine-humidity dampness that turns a normal flue into a Stage 2 buildup in two seasons. Camera scans on every inspection. Written reports in your inbox before we leave the driveway.
What can you expect from Draft Pro San Diego?
Show up on time.
You get a two-hour arrival window, not a six-hour "sometime today." If we're running late, you hear from us — not the opposite.
Show the work.
Camera scan on every inspection. Photos of every defect. You see what we see, top to bottom of the flue. No vague "you need a reline" without proof.
Price before the work.
Flat-rate written quote up front. No hourly meter running. No surprise line items on the invoice.
Answer the phone.
You call, we answer. After hours, an on-call technician picks up — not a national dispatch service in another time zone.
