Our Services

A chimney inspection in Salem, Va., starts with a quick look at the flue, the firebox and the exterior bricks to spot any creosote buildup or cracks before they turn into a fire. We check for blocked flues, poor draft and smoke that backs up into your living room, because those problems are the main safety risks for any home. Our inspectors use a flashlight, a video camera and a creosote gauge to see what’s really going on, then tell you exactly what needs fixing. Pricing is flat-rate and shown up front, so there are no surprise fees when the work is done. You can schedule the visit online or by calling (888) 295-7280, and we’ll be on time, finish the job in a few hours, and leave a clean, safe chimney ready for the season.

Reliable chimney inspection

We check every inch of your chimney, looking for creosote that can spark a fire. Our techs sniff out blocked flues and cracks before they turn into a hazard. We also test draft to make sure smoke goes up, not into your house. If we spot loose bricks, we note it and recommend repair. Call (888) 295-7280 for a fast, reliable inspection in Salem.
