Why Annual Chimney Inspections Matter

Your chimney should be inspected at least once a year. A yearly check ensures your chimney is structurally sound, clear of deposits, and maintains safe distances from combustible materials.

Inspections are quick—usually under two hours—and help prevent serious hazards, keeping your home and family safe.

Three Levels of Chimney Inspections

Level 1: Routine Check

• Ideal if your fireplace or appliance hasn’t changed and you’re continuing normal use.
• We check accessible parts of the chimney, flue, and appliance connections.
• Focus: structural soundness, proper installation, and freedom from obstructions or combustible buildup.

Level 2: After Changes or Events

• Needed if you change fuel type, reline the flue, replace or add a different appliance, or if your home is being sold.
• Also recommended after fires, severe weather, or other events that could damage the chimney.
• Includes all Level 1 checks, plus accessible areas like attics, crawl spaces, and basements.
• We may use video scanning to inspect internal flue surfaces—no demolition required.

Level 3: In-Depth Investigation

• Recommended when serious hazards are suspected or when hidden areas need evaluation.
• May require removal of parts of the chimney or building to fully assess the system.
• Includes everything in Levels 1 and 2 and ensures even concealed areas are thoroughly inspected.
