OVERVIEW
A Complete Look at How Safely Your Chimney Operates
A chimney safety inspection confirms that your chimney and the appliance it serves can run without a fire or carbon monoxide hazard. Our certified inspectors examine the interior, the exterior, and every connection point, then document the exact condition of the system so nothing is left to guesswork.
People book a fireplace safety inspection for different reasons: after a season of use, before buying or selling, or when they notice smoke, odor, or poor draft. The service reads the same either way. We check the full system, note what we find, and tell you plainly whether it is safe to use.
Where a finding calls for a fix, we note it and point you to the right service, so the report stays an honest record of condition rather than a sales pitch.
SAFETY SCOPE
The Hazards a Full Safety Check Looks For
-
Obstruction and creosote
We check the flue and passage for blockages, nests, debris, and creosote that can fuel a chimney fire or restrict venting.
-
Structural soundness
We assess the masonry, crown, and flue liner for cracks, spalling, and deterioration that let heat or moisture reach places they should not.
-
Proper clearances
We confirm the chimney and appliance sit at safe distances from surrounding combustible materials.
-
Connection integrity
We inspect the joints between the appliance, the flue pipe, and the chimney to confirm they are sealed and secure.
-
Carbon monoxide risk
We look for liner cracks, leaks, and draft faults that could let combustion gases enter the home or building.
-
Draft and ventilation
We verify that the system draws properly and carries combustion byproducts fully to the outside.

What Our Clients Say
Mike S.
Chimney Professionals did a terrific job cleaning my two wood burning fireplaces in a Manhattan brownstone. They came within one day. Their equipment is state of the art, and it was all done in less than 30 minutes. Everything kept spotless. The price was right too.

Not only did they answer right away, they had Rod at my door first thing Monday morning and sourced a hard to find part same day when others could not. They beat every other quote I got and had our system back up and running in under an hour.

Bruce S.
The chimney in my 115 year old brick rowhouse had a badly deteriorated terra cotta lining. Michael gave me a fair price, was punctual, and while spending more time than he expected, stuck to the original price. Kudos to Michael for getting a tricky job done.
