Chimney Sweeps & Inspections

Chimney Sweeps

Is your fireplace safe to use? Looking for a way to heat the home when the power is out? Curious about what is in your dryer vent? We offer a variety of chimney sweep services including flue brushing, flue caps, repairs, and flue pics to keep your home safe and help you prepare for the unexpected.

  • Keep your home safe from chimney fires.
  • Efficiently heat your home with a properly running fireplace.
  • Save money with preventative chimney maintenance.
  • Keep your chimney critter-free.
  • Prevent bad smells in the summer.

Keep your home and family safe by following the Chimney Safety Institute of America’s recommendation to have your chimney inspected at least once a year. Unused chimneys often attract animals, their nests create fire hazards when you start a fire in the fireplace. Your wood burning stove makes your home more self-sufficient, but it needs to be serviced too. We do the condition checks, sweeping and we clean up the mess before we leave. Your home may need chimney repairs or we may be able to extend the life of the wood-burning system. We can even do a detailed video scan of the flue and identify potential problems.

Chimney Inspections

A Level 2 inspection is a more in-depth inspection than a Level 1 inspection. A Level 2 inspection is required when any changes are made to the system, such as a change in the fuel type; changes to the shape of, or material in, the flue (i.e. relining); or the replacement or addition of an appliance of a dissimilar type, input rating or efficiency.

A Level 2 inspection is also required upon the sale or transfer of a property, after an operation malfunction, or following an external event that is likely to have caused damage to the chimney, such as building fires, chimney fires, seismic events and other weather events. A Level 2 inspection includes everything in a Level 1 inspection, plus the accessible portions of the chimney exterior and interior including attics, crawl spaces and basements. It will address proper clearances from combustibles in accessible locations.
