Looking closely at chimneys in Alafaya

Straight answers about chimney inspection in Alafaya, from the people who do it.

A chimney check after a nearby lightning strike

A chimney is often the tallest point on a house, and a strike on or near it can loosen brick, crack a crown or knock a cap askew. The damage may be plain to see or limited to a few displaced bricks near the top. If lightning hit your Alafaya home or a tree close to the chimney, keep the fireplace out of use until we have checked the top, the flue and the attic around the chimney. A displaced crown or loose brick can drop from the roof, so keep the ground beneath the chimney clear in the meantime.

Real estate chimney inspection for sellers

Sellers often learn about a chimney problem only when the buyer's report arrives. An inspection before listing gives you time to price a repair, fix it or disclose it on your own terms. Our pros in Alafaya look at the fireplace and chimney with the sale in mind and give you the findings and any estimate in writing. If an agent or buyer asks for a specific scope, tell us before the visit. Fixing a small item before listing is often simpler than negotiating over it later.

Switching a wood fireplace to another fuel

Converting a wood-burning fireplace to gas or electric changes what the chimney has to do. A gas appliance may need a different vent or liner, and an electric unit may need the flue sealed and capped. When you plan a switch at your Alafaya home, the inspection comes first. We check the firebox, flue and top, then tell you what the chosen appliance requires before you order anything. Some conversions also call for a new cap or a change to the damper, depending on the appliance's instructions.

Before your chimney inspection in Alafaya

If your question is not here, our Alafaya team is a phone call away.

Is the chimney inspection really free?

Yes. You pay nothing for the inspection or the written estimate, and you are not bound to book anything. Cleaning or repairs we recommend are priced upfront so you can decide in your own time.

Can you inspect a fireplace we want to close off?

Yes. We check the top, the damper and signs of water, then explain how the flue can be closed and capped properly so rain and animals stay out.
