An Honest Look at Your Chimney
Every inspection we do in Cheval follows NFPA 211, roof first and hearth last.
The top of the chimney
The chimney top takes the weather first. Our pros check the cap and its screen, the crown for cracks and slope, and the flue tile where it leaves the crown, along with the joint between them. The Florida Building Code, Residential, at R1003.9.1, wants that crown sloped so water runs off, finished with a drip edge and kept apart from the flue liners by a bond break.
These are the parts homeowners almost never see, and the parts that decide whether rain stays out. Anything that needs work is explained with a written price.
Brick, stucco and mortar joints
The chimney walls are checked for cracks, spalled brick, open mortar joints, leaning and water marks. Each one says something about how the chimney has been weathering and where water may be getting in.
Where mortar needs attention, our pros follow the National Park Service principle that repointing mortar should be softer than the brick it sits in. Any masonry repair is explained on site and priced on its own line.
Inspecting a chimney for a sale
Selling or transferring a property is one of the points where NFPA 211 expects a deeper examination than the routine yearly check.
Our pros inspect chimneys for buyers and sellers in Cheval, explain the findings on site and put any recommended repair in a written estimate that both sides can read. We describe what we saw, and we say clearly what could not be seen. Sales run on deadlines, so tell us the closing date when you arrange the visit and we will plan around it.
Findings explained on site
At the end of the inspection our specialists walk you through what they checked, what they found and what they could not see. You can ask questions while the chimney is right there.
Any work they recommend goes into a free written estimate with upfront prices and no hidden fees. Nothing is scheduled until you approve it, and anything you approve in the 72 hours that follow the inspection is 10% off.
