Free Inspection FAQs
A Level 1 inspection is a visual review of the readily accessible parts of your chimney — the parts you can see without special tools or removing anything. It's the annual-maintenance standard recommended by NFPA 211 for any chimney in regular use, and we include it free with every visit.
Yes — unused chimneys still take on animal nests, debris, and weather damage. An annual Level 1 check catches that before it becomes a bigger problem the first time you do light a fire.
The free inspection offer is ongoing, but same-week appointment slots fill up quickly, especially heading into fall — booking online locks in your spot.
