What to Look For
REASONS TO INSPECT A CHIMNEY
Visible crown cracking, a damaged or missing cap, debris, signs of animal activity or concerns found during fireplace use can all be reasons to have the chimney inspected. The chimney should be considered as a system from the fireplace and flue to the crown and cap.
How We Work
OUR PROCESS.
- Review the accessible fireplace and chimney components included with your scheduled service.
- For a sweep, clean accessible deposits and debris from the chimney using methods appropriate for the system.
- Inspect accessible fireplace and chimney components and identify visible maintenance concerns.
- Show you what we find and explain anything that may need attention.
- If repair or replacement work is recommended, discuss the options and pricing with you first.
- Only perform additional work after you understand and approve the scope and cost.
Top of the Chimney
CHIMNEY CROWN REPAIR.
The crown is the masonry surface at the top of the chimney. Cracking and deterioration can expose the chimney to water and continued weathering. The correct repair depends on the condition and extent of deterioration.
Wildlife & Chimneys
ANIMALS AT THE CHIMNEY.
Open, damaged or poorly protected chimney tops can attract wildlife. Activity around the chimney can be a reason to inspect the cap, screening and other potential access points.
