What goes into a chimney inspection in Belle Isle
The checks below shape what we recommend in Belle Isle, and each one is explained on site.
Getting onto the roof safely
Much of a chimney inspection happens on the roof. Tile roofs, steep pitches, wet surfaces and fragile skylights all change how we reach the chimney and where we step. At your Belle Isle home we choose the route that protects the roof covering and keeps the crew safe. When a part of the roof cannot be walked that day, we note which parts of the chimney were seen from the roof and which from the ground or a ladder. Ladders go on firm ground, with padded feet wherever they touch gutters or walls.
Embers escaping past the fireplace screen
Burn marks on the hearth, scorched rugs or tiny holes in a nearby floor covering show that embers have been getting past the fireplace screen. We check the screen or doors for gaps and the hearth extension for size and condition. At your Belle Isle home we then explain whether a tighter screen, hearth repair or a change in how the fireplace is used would best stop it happening again. Rugs should also sit clear of the hearth extension, an easy change you can make today.
Sealant and coatings on the crown
A crown with fine cracks can sometimes be sealed with a flexible crown coating instead of being replaced. The method only suits a crown that is still sound and shaped to shed water. On your Belle Isle chimney we check whether the crown qualifies, whether any earlier coating has failed and whether the cracks run deep. The estimate names the option that fits and says why the other one does not. A coating goes only onto a dry, clean crown, and any failed older layer comes off first.

Chimney inspection questions from Belle Isle
Answers from our specialists in Belle Isle, with no sales pressure.
Can you check a chimney after a roofer worked on it?
Yes. We look at the flashing, counterflashing and cricket where the new roof meets the chimney and check the attic for fresh staining. The written findings can go back to the roofer if something needs correcting.
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.
