Our Services

A proper chimney inspection in Shaker Heights is the first step to keeping your home safe and warm this winter. We’ll check for creosote buildup, the most common fire starter, and make sure the flue isn’t blocked by debris or bird nests. Our crew tests the draft, so you won’t get smoke backing up into your living room or kitchen. We also look for cracked or loose bricks that could let heat escape or cause a roof leak. Pricing is clear – a flat rate that covers the camera camera-cam, brush, and a written report, with no hidden fees. Scheduling is simple: give us a call and we’ll fit you in at a time that works for you. The job typically takes an hour, includes a full video inspection, and ends with recommendations you can trust.

Reliable chimney inspection

We check every inch of your chimney for creosote buildup and hidden cracks. A thick black layer can spark a fire, so we scrape it clean. We look for loose bricks that could crumble under heat. Blocked flues are spotted and cleared to keep smoke out. Our report tells you exactly what needs fixing, no fluff.

Clear scheduling

You call, we fit you in quickly, often within a few days. Our schedule is simple, no back-and-forth. We arrive on time, ready with the right tools. If weather changes, we give a heads-up and reschedule fast. You’ll know the exact time we’ll be at your home, no guessing.

Honest pricing

Our prices are flat and transparent before we start. You get a written quote that covers all inspection steps. No hidden fees for extra checks; we tell you what we see. If we find serious damage, you’ll get a separate repair estimate. You pay only for work you approve.

Prep that matters

Before we start, we make sure the fireplace is cool and the area is clear. We cover nearby furniture to protect from spark fallout. You should have the damper open and clear of debris. We ask you to remove any stored items near the hearth. This prep helps us work faster and safer.
