Our Services

In Noe Valley, a chimney inspection is the first step to keeping your home safe and warm. We look for creosote buildup, which can ignite and cause a chimney fire if left unchecked. Blocked flues and poor draft are checked, because they force smoke back into your living space and can poison you with carbon monoxide. Our crew will spot cracked or loose bricks before they turn into a structural hazard that could let flames spread. Pricing is clear-cut, with no hidden fees, and scheduling is done over the phone or online at a time that works for you. A typical visit takes about an hour, includes a camera scan of the interior, and ends with a written report and any repair recommendations. Call (888) 295-7280 to set up your inspection today.
