Chimney Inspection, Top to Bottom
We inspect chimneys across Dover for free and explain every finding on site.
An inspection after a storm
The National Hurricane Center counts hurricane season from June 1 to November 30. Wind can loosen caps, crack crowns and lift flashing without any sign inside the house. Debris on the roof, metal in the gutter or a cap that looks tilted from the ground are all worth mentioning when you get in touch.
After a storm, stay off the roof and let our team look. We check the chimney top and the roof line and give you a written price for anything the storm damaged.
A fireplace that has not been used in years
Fireplaces that sit unused collect nests, leaves and water damage, and their history is often unknown to a new owner. Dampers rust shut, mortar loosens and caps go missing without anyone noticing, so the first fire in an idle fireplace deserves a check.
Our pros inspect an idle fireplace from top to bottom before it is used again, tell you what kind of system it is and list anything that needs attention first. The inspection is free, and so is the advice on what can wait.
Getting ready for the visit
Let the fireplace cool completely, clear the hearth and the area in front of it, and make the attic hatch reachable if the chimney passes through the attic.
Tell us about pets, gates and anything you have noticed, such as stains, odors or noises. Our team brings the ladders and handles the roof, so you never need to climb. If the chimney has a history, such as earlier repairs, a past leak or notes from another inspector, have it handy.
Sorting urgent repairs from ones that can wait
Findings differ in urgency. A blocked flue or a cracked firebox needs attention before the next fire, while a hairline crown crack can often be scheduled. Loose bricks near the top and a missing cap sit in between, worth fixing before the next storm season.
Our specialists sort what they find into what to fix now, what to plan for and what to watch. You get each item priced in writing.
