Chimney inspection explained for Moss Park homeowners
Here is how our local team works through a chimney inspection at your Moss Park home.
Looking at the chimney from the attic
The attic is often where a chimney tells the truth. From inside, we can see stains on the roof deck around the chimney, dark wood on the framing and gaps where insulation touches the brick. When your Moss Park home has safe attic access, we ask to use it during the fireplace and chimney inspection. If the attic is sealed, floored over or too tight to move through, that limit goes into the written findings. We move carefully around wiring and ducts with a light and leave stored belongings exactly where they were.
Before adding a fireplace insert
A fireplace insert turns an open fireplace into a closed appliance, and it usually needs a liner running the full height of the chimney. NFPA 211 calls for a closer examination when an appliance is changed or added. Before an insert goes into your Moss Park fireplace, we check the firebox size, the damper area, the flue and the chimney top so the plan fits the chimney you actually have. The measurements we take help you choose an insert that fits both the opening and the flue.
Getting ready for the inspection visit
A little preparation makes the visit smoother. Move furniture and decorations a few feet back from the hearth, keep pets in another room and make sure the attic hatch can be reached. Leave any fallen debris in the firebox where it landed, because it tells us something. For homes in Moss Park with gated entry or a community access code, send that ahead so the crew arrives without delay. If the fireplace has doors, leave them closed but unlocked. Point out any spot that worries you when we arrive.
