Our Services

If you’re a Simsbury homeowner Googling “chimney inspection,” you’re probably worried about creosote, a black, tar-like film that builds up inside the flue and can spark a fire. A proper inspection checks for that buildup, any blockages, and whether the draft is pulling smoke up and out the way it should. We look for cracked or loose bricks, gaps that let air leak, and signs of smoke backing into your living space – all the things that turn a cozy fireplace into a safety hazard. Our pricing is clear and upfront, with no hidden fees, so you know exactly what you’ll pay before we start. You can schedule a visit in just a few clicks or a quick call to (888) 295-7280, and our tech will spend about an hour doing a thorough visual and tap-test, cleaning where needed, and giving you a plain-spoken report on what’s safe and what needs fixing.

Reliable chimney inspection

We check every part of the chimney for creosote buildup and blockages. Our crew looks for cracks, loose bricks, and signs of water damage. A clogged flue can cause smoke to back into your home, so we clear it out. We also test the draft to make sure smoke is pulling up and out. In Simsbury we’ve seen many fires start from ignored cracks, so we flag them early.
