Our Services

If you’re a homeowner in Troy, NY and you type “chimney inspection” into Google, you’re probably worried about creosote buildup, a blocked flue, or smoke backing up into the house. A proper inspection checks for that black, tar-like residue that can ignite, clears any obstructions in the flue, and measures draft to make sure smoke is moving the right way. We also look for cracks or loose bricks that could let heat escape and start a fire in the walls. Our pricing is transparent – you’ll know the cost up front and there are no surprise fees. Scheduling is simple: give us a call at (888) 295-7280 and we’ll set a time that fits your calendar, and our inspector will be on-site to show you the findings and recommend any needed repairs.
