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 Reading, PA
Top Hat Chimney has been sweeping and repairing chimneys around Reading since 1999, and the offers below are how we keep good customers coming back. Call (484) 209-0837 and a live person answers, any hour. Wendell Pike, Owner, puts his name on every job, and the 90-Day Done Right Promise is stamped on every invoice we write. If a chimney doesn’t need work, we’ll tell you that plainly, and we’ll show you camera footage to prove it.
Current Offers
$40 Off Any Repair Over $200
That covers chimney repointing, crown sealing, damper replacement, cap and chase work, and most liner repairs. If the repair quote lands above $200, you save $40 on the spot. This offer stacks with no other discount, but it does stack with the free estimate and the no-trip-charge guarantee inside our home county.
Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (484) 209-0837.
Free Second Opinion on Any Written Estimate
If another company has quoted you a liner, a rebuild, or any masonry work, bring us the written estimate. We’ll inspect the chimney ourselves, put a camera up the flue if the situation calls for it, and tell you whether that work is actually necessary. If their price is fair, we’ll say so. If it’s not, you’ll know exactly why before you spend a dime.
Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (484) 209-0837.
No Trip Charge Inside the County
Live in Reading, Shillington, Wyomissing, West Reading, Mount Penn, or anywhere else in Berks County? You pay nothing for us to come out and inspect your chimney. No gas surcharge, no service fee, no hidden line item. If we can’t help, you’re not out a cent.
Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (484) 209-0837.
10% Off for Seniors and Veterans
Wendell’s been at this 29 years, and a lot of his earliest customers are reading this page now retired, with grandchildren who never touched a match. If you served or you’ve earned the senior discount, take 10% off any service, any time, no expiration needed on this one. Just let the person on the phone know.
Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (484) 209-0837.
Free Camera Inspection With Every Sweep
Every chimney cleaning in Reading includes camera footage of your flue from top to bottom. You’ll see what we see, and Wendell or one of his crew will walk you through it in plain English. If the flue is clean and sound, you’ll see that too, and you won’t be upsold on work you don’t need.
Valid through December 31, 2026. Mention this offer when you call (484) 209-0837.
How to Redeem
Call (484) 209-0837 and tell the live person which offer you want. You’ll get a real arrival window, not a four-hour guess. Wendell or a uniformed, background-checked tech will show up at the scheduled time, give you a flat price before any tool comes off the truck, and honor the offer right there on the invoice. That’s it. No coupon code, no app, no fine print.
The Fine Print (Because Wendell Doesn’t Hide Things)
Offers can’t be combined unless we say so. The senior and veteran discount can stack with the $40 repair credit if you qualify. Free second opinions apply to written estimates from licensed chimney companies, not hand-scribbled napkin quotes. Trip charge is waived inside our home service county; if you’re outside it, ask and we’ll tell you the trip fee upfront before you commit. Every offer above is good through December 31, 2026, unless noted.
Why Reading Homeowners Call Top Hat First
We’ve been around since 1999, not a franchise that rolled into Berks County last spring. We install and service DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield products. The phone is answered by a person, 24/7, and it may well be Wendell himself. The 90-Day Done Right Promise means if the work isn’t right, one call brings us back at no charge. Ask anyone on your street. Chances are decent they’ve seen the truck.
Call (484) 209-0837 to book your sweep or inspection and claim one of these Reading chimney specials. We’ll answer.
