How Our Specialists Inspect Your Chimney

Our local pros check what can be seen safely and tell you clearly what could not.

What NFPA 211 asks an inspection to check

The national standard for chimneys and fireplaces, NFPA 211, frames a chimney inspection around three things: soundness, freedom from deposits and correct clearances. Cleaning, maintenance and repairs follow when the inspection shows they are needed.

Our pros use those three questions to organize every inspection in Wimauma. You hear what they found under each one, in plain words, before any work is suggested, and you can ask about anything while the chimney is right there.

The roof line and flashing

Where the chimney passes through the roof, base flashing and counter flashing overlap to keep water out. A chimney wider than 30 inches along the ridge direction that does not meet the ridge needs a cricket under section R1003.20 of the Florida residential code.

The laps, the corners and the counter flashing joint are checked on every side. Loose metal, tar patches and stains in the attic all go into the findings, with any repair priced separately.

The firebox and firebrick

The firebox takes the heat of every fire. Cracked or loose firebrick, open joints and a bulging back wall can let heat reach the masonry and framing behind it.

Each wall and the floor of the firebox get a close look, and our pros tell you what they see. Small joint repairs and a full firebox rebuild are very different jobs, and you get the right one priced.

Chimneys with more than one flue

Some chimneys carry two or more flues, for fireplaces on two floors or for another heating appliance. Each flue needs to be checked on its own.

Our pros identify which flue serves which appliance, check each one's top, lining and connection, and tell you if any flue is unused, blocked or shared in a way that needs attention. An unused flue left open still takes in rain, so we note whether it should be capped or closed off.
