Every property with a chimney should undergo regular inspections to ensure safety, performance, and compliance with local codes. Chimney systems, whether installed in a family home or a commercial building, face wear and tear over time that can lead to hidden hazards. We proudly offer professional chimney inspections for residential homeowners, property managers, and commercial facility owners. Our team helps you identify potential issues early, saving you from larger repairs or dangerous situations down the line.
For homeowners, the chimney is often one of the most under-inspected components of the property. Over time, creosote buildup, cracked flue tiles, deteriorating mortar, or faulty venting systems can lead to poor performance or even fire hazards. Our residential chimney inspections follow strict NFPA 211 standards and include a detailed evaluation of your firebox, flue, smoke chamber, and chimney structure. Whether you’re preparing for winter, noticing a draft problem, or dealing with a smoke issue, our inspection services will uncover the cause and provide clear solutions.
Commercial chimney systems often have more demanding requirements and experience heavier usage compared to residential properties. We specialize in inspecting chimneys for restaurants, apartment buildings, multi-unit properties, and other commercial structures. Our team ensures compliance with local codes, insurance requirements, and industry safety standards. We perform detailed commercial chimney inspections to identify wear, structural concerns, and venting problems that could result in costly downtime or safety violations. We also provide required documentation and reports for regulatory and insurance purposes.
We perform all three nationally recognized levels of chimney inspections:
Whether your property needs a seasonal check-up or you suspect damage after a storm or fire event, we are certified to perform the right inspection for your situation.

Our team utilizes advanced camera systems and smoke tests to identify blockages, flue damage, and draft issues. Camera inspections allow us to pinpoint internal cracks, gaps, or obstructions inside the chimney that a surface inspection might miss. Smoke testing helps us detect air leaks and confirm your chimney is drafting properly, a key factor for both safety and efficiency.
Buying or selling a home or commercial property? Real estate transactions often require chimney inspections to satisfy lender, insurance, and code requirements. We provide detailed and certified inspection reports that are respected by real estate professionals and inspectors alike. Our comprehensive documentation helps avoid closing delays and gives buyers confidence in the property's condition.
For homeowners, chimney inspections prevent fires, carbon monoxide exposure, and expensive repairs caused by unnoticed deterioration. For commercial property owners, routine chimney evaluations protect your business, employees, and customers while maintaining insurance and code compliance. Inspections are a small investment that protects lives, property, and operational continuity.
Whether you need a single-family home inspected before the heating season or manage multiple commercial properties, we are your trusted local experts for certified chimney inspections. We provide honest assessments, detailed reporting, and actionable recommendations to keep your property safe and efficient.
