Chimney Inspections

Keeping Your Home and Family Safe

You may wonder why you should get your chimney and firebox inspected every year if you only use your fireplace a few times over the season. The truth is that getting an inspection yearly – usually in the spring after you no longer use your fireplace as regularly – is important not only for the health of your family, but also in order to keep your fireplace and chimney in their best working condition. This is true for wood burning and gas fireplaces.

We offer 3 levels of chimney inspection

Depending on how long it has been since your last inspection we may need to do one of three different inspections.

Basic Inspections – if you get a yearly inspection and do not plan on changing your system
Mid-Level Inspections – if you are making any system changes or notice any damage
Advanced Inspections – if there is serious damage to your chimney
