Chimney Inspection in Colorado

Camera-assisted evaluation of the flue, liner and structure to catch problems early.

On the job

Overview

An inspection is how you find out what's really going on inside a chimney before a small problem becomes a dangerous or expensive one. Using a visual check and, where needed, a camera, we evaluate the flue, liner, masonry and connections and explain what we find in plain language.

Colorado considerations

Front Range weather — freeze-thaw cycles, hail, wind and heavy snow — works on the parts of a chimney you can't easily see from the ground. An inspection catches the water intrusion and masonry damage those conditions cause before they spread.
