Our Services

A good chimney inspection in the Upper East Side starts with spotting creosote buildup before it turns into a fire hazard. We check for blocked flues, poor draft and any smoke that’s backing up into your home, because those signs mean you’re at risk. Our inspector walks the entire length of the chimney, looks for cracks, loose bricks and any other damage that could let heat escape. We give you a clear, upfront price so there are no surprise charges later on. Scheduling is simple – just give us a call and we’ll fit you in at a time that works for you. Call (888) 295-7280 and we’ll get your chimney safe and solid, no fuss.

Prep that matters

This prep stops soot from spreading inside your house. It also lets us see the chimney interior clearly. Proper prep means a thorough inspection.

Follow-through

After the inspection we give you a written report and photo evidence of any issues. If repairs are needed, we schedule the work at your convenience. We follow up to confirm the chimney is performing safely. Our goal is to keep your home fire-free. Call (888) 295-7280 if you need a follow-up.
