Our Services

A thorough chimney inspection in Palos Verdes Estates starts with spotting the hidden dangers that cost homeowners peace of mind. We look for creosote buildup, the main culprit behind chimney fires, and check for blocked flues that choke the draft. Our crew tests the airflow to catch poor draft or smoke backing up into your living space before it becomes a health hazard. We also walk the interior and exterior for cracks, loose bricks, or rusted crowns that could let sparks escape. Pricing is clear-cut with no hidden fees, and you can set up a visit in just a few clicks or a call to (888) 295-7280. The inspection typically takes an hour, includes a detailed report, and ends with practical advice on any repairs needed.

A typical chimney inspection checks the flue for blockages, measures the draft, and looks for creosote buildup. We examine the chimney crown, flashing, and the masonry for cracks or loose bricks. The interior walls are inspected for soot and corrosion. We also test the fireplace damper to ensure proper operation. The report includes any safety concerns and recommended repairs.

Pricing is based on the type of inspection and the condition of the chimney. A basic Level 1 inspection starts at a set fee, while a Level 2 that includes video camera work costs more.
