What's Included
Chimney Inspection in Malden, here's what's covered.
Video scope inspection
A camera travels the full flue so we can show you cracked tiles, gaps, or creosote you'd never otherwise see.
Pre-purchase & insurance inspections
Buying a home or renewing a policy? We document chimney condition with photos, not opinions.
Draft & ventilation check
Poor draft means smoke in the room and carbon monoxide risk — we test it, not assume it.
No upsell pressure
If everything checks out, we tell you that. If it doesn't, we show you on the screen.
Our Process
How we do it.
Exterior & roofline check
Crown, cap, flashing, and masonry get inspected from the roof first.
Camera scope of the flue
We feed a scope down the full length and record what it sees.
Firebox & damper check
We test the damper seal and look for spalling, gaps, or heat damage at the firebox.
Photo report, same day
You get real photos of your actual chimney — not a stock diagram.

Frequently Asked
Questions we hear a lot.
What's the difference between a Level 1, 2, and 3 inspection?
A Level 1 covers the readily accessible parts of the chimney for routine use. A Level 2 adds a video scan of the flue and is required after a chimney fire, the sale of a home, or any change of appliance. A Level 3 may involve removing parts of the chimney or wall to access a suspected hidden hazard.
Do I need an inspection if I just had it swept?
A sweep and an inspection check different things — we're happy to do both in the same visit so you get a clean flue and a documented condition report.
Do you provide chimney inspection directly in Malden?
Yes — Malden is within our regular Boston service area, so chimney inspection here gets the same crew, pricing, and response time as anywhere else we work near Boston.
