A chimney inspection by us provides an opportunity to ensure the safety of your chimney, and home.

And also the inspection of other appliances or systems that may share the chimney. Having a chimney certified will ensure peace of mind knowing that the chimney is safe to use, and will also be helpful if you ever decide to sell your home.
Chimney Caps
A chimney cap is a covering for the top of a chimney that helps keep out rain, snow, and debris. It also helps prevent birds and other animals from nesting in the chimney. Investing in a chimney cap can help protect your chimney from water damage and keep your home free of unwanted pests.
Flue Liners
A flue liner is a clay, ceramic, or metal tube that lines the inside of a chimney. It helps protect the chimney from heat and prevents dangerous gasses from escaping into your home. If your chimney does not have a liner, or the liner is damaged, it is important to have a professional install one. This can not only prevent chimney fires but also help improve the performance of your fireplace.
Fireplace Dampers
A damper is a metal plate located at the top of a chimney that opens and closes to allow smoke and gasses to escape from the fireplace. A properly functioning damper can help prevent heat loss and improve the efficiency of your fireplace. If your damper is not working properly, it may be time to have it repaired or replaced.
Home Fireplace Safety
A fireplace is a great addition to any home, but it can also be a source of danger if not properly maintained. By being aware of proper fireplace safety, such as making sure the chimney is cleaned and inspected regularly, you can help prevent fires and keep your family safe.
