Our Services

A thorough chimney inspection in Altadena is the first step to keeping your home safe and warm. Our pros check for creosote buildup, which can ignite and cause a chimney fire if left unchecked. We also look for blocked flues, poor draft, and any signs that smoke is backing up into your living space. The inspection includes a visual look at the masonry, a camera sweep of the interior, and a draft test to spot cracks or loose bricks before they become hazards. We give you a clear, upfront price and offer straightforward scheduling, so you know exactly what to expect and when the job will be done.

Reliable chimney inspection

Our crew checks every flue for creosote buildup and blockages. We look for cracks in the brick and mortar before they turn into fires. Bad draft gets spotted early so smoke stays outside. We test the chimney for proper pull and any signs of smoke backing into the house. Trust a local team that knows the Altadena climate and how it affects chimney performance.

Clear scheduling

We work around your schedule, not the other way round. Call or book online and we’ll lock in a time that fits your day. Our inspectors arrive on time, ready to start. We bring all tools needed to finish the check in one visit. No hidden delays, just a clean, quick appointment.

Honest pricing

We give you an upfront quote before any work begins. No surprise fees or hidden charges later. The price covers a full visual inspection, creosote assessment, and a written report. You decide what to fix and when, based on our clear recommendations. Call (888) 295-7280 for a straight-forward estimate.

Local professionals

All our techs are certified and live in the area, so they understand local building codes. They know the common brick types and mortar mixes used around Altadena. Every inspection is done by a hands-on professional, not a rushed contractor. We treat your home like our own, checking for loose bricks and hidden cracks. You get honest advice from people who actually work here.

Prep that matters

We ask you to clear the area around the chimney base before we arrive. Remove stored items and close doors to the firebox. This lets us get a full view without moving furniture later. A clean work zone speeds up the inspection and reduces dust. Proper prep keeps the job safe and efficient.

Follow-through

After the inspection we give you a detailed report and next-step plan. We follow up to answer any questions you might have. If you need repairs, we can schedule a crew to fix the issues promptly. Our goal is to make sure your chimney stays safe year after year. We stand by our work and check back to confirm everything runs smooth.

Frequently Asked Questions

We can usually start within two business days of your call. Our crew checks their schedule and heads out the same week if you need it sooner. We’ll confirm a time that works for you and bring all the tools needed. No need to clear the whole house, just keep the area around the fireplace clear. If you’re in a rush we’ll try to fit you in, but weekends are limited.

A standard inspection looks at the flue for blockages, creosote buildup, and proper draft. We check the firebox for cracks, loose bricks, and any corrosion. The chimney cap and chimney crown are examined for damage. We also inspect the chimney liner for cracks or gaps. Finally we give you a written report with any needed repairs.

Pricing is based on the type of inspection and any extra work required. A basic Level 1 inspection costs a flat fee, usually around a few hundred dollars. If we find creosote or need a camera scan, there’s an added charge. Repairs like brick replacement or liner work are quoted separately. We always give a clear estimate before starting any work.

You don’t have to stay the whole time, but we need you there at the start. We’ll walk you through what we’re doing and any findings. If you prefer, a trusted neighbor can let us in after you leave. We’ll leave a detailed report on your door or email it to you. Just make sure the area around the hearth is accessible.

A typical chimney inspection takes about an hour to an hour and a half. Complex systems or heavy creosote buildup can add extra time. We’ll finish the visual check first, then move to any camera work if needed. Cleanup and the written report are part of the same visit. Most homeowners are done within a single afternoon.

We stand behind our work with a 90-day guarantee on repairs we perform. If a problem we fixed re-appears within that time, we’ll come back and correct it at no extra cost. The guarantee does not cover issues caused by misuse or external damage. All guarantees are written in the service contract we provide. Call (888) 295-7280 if you need to schedule a follow-up under the guarantee.

First, clear the area around the fireplace and remove any flammable items. Open windows to improve ventilation during the inspection. Turn off any gas or wood-burning appliances until the inspector arrives. Make sure pets are kept away from the work zone. Have your chimney’s maintenance records handy for the inspector.
