Your family-owned chimney company in Lake Terrace

What does a free chimney inspection actually include? For Lake Terrace, an official Orlando neighborhood, the answer is a careful look at every part of the chimney and fireplace our technicians can safely reach, a plain explanation of what we find and a written estimate for anything that needs work. It is not a sales visit dressed up as an inspection, and it costs you nothing.

Inside, we look at the firebox, the damper, the smoke chamber as far as it can be seen and the hearth, and on a gas or factory-built unit we check the components and the rating plate. On the roof, from safe access, we check the crown, the cap, the flue opening, the flashing and the condition of the brick, stucco or chase.

Where the attic can be reached, we look for signs of water beside the chimney. We also tell you what the visit covers and what it does not. Some things cannot be judged without more access, such as the full length of a flue liner or concealed framing inside a chase. If a finding suggests a problem in a hidden area, we explain why we think so and what it would take to confirm it.

You decide whether to go further. The written estimate lists each finding and each recommended repair with its own price. Items that affect safe use are marked as such. Items that can wait are described that way too. There are no hidden fees, and nothing is added without your approval. Before we arrive, let the fireplace go cold, clear the area in front of it and tell us about pets, gates or anything that affects access to the roof.

Our family-owned company schedules Lake Terrace inspections at a time that suits you. Same-day is possible when the schedule allows, and you save 10% on paid work booked within 72 hours after the inspection.
