Chimney inspection details that matter in Parramore

Here is how our local team works through a chimney inspection at your Parramore home.

The vent cap on a sealed gas fireplace

A sealed gas fireplace usually vents through a metal pipe to a cap on the roof or an outside wall. Its maker sets the clearances around that cap and the parts it may be used with. When we inspect a fireplace of this kind in Parramore, we look at the vent cap, the visible pipe and the wall or roof around it, and we check for nesting, damage and blocked openings. Appliance servicing is a separate job with its own estimate. Caps near walkways, windows or decks are also checked for knocks and bent parts.

Checking the chimney after roof work

A new roof is a good moment to confirm the chimney flashing was handled correctly. Roofers sometimes reuse old counterflashing, cover it with sealant or leave the cricket untouched. For your Parramore home, we look at the new flashing where it meets the brick or chase and at the attic side for any fresh staining. Any concern is written up so it can go back to the roofer if the work is still under their warranty. We check that the counterflashing overlaps the new base flashing and that no joint was left relying on caulk alone.

Before solar panels or other roof equipment

Panels, vents and roof equipment installed close to a chimney can make later chimney repairs harder to reach. When roof work is planned at your Parramore home, an inspection first lets you fix the crown, cap or flashing while the roof is still clear. We also point out the space the chimney needs around it, so the installer can plan a layout that leaves room for access. Chimney work done before panels go up is usually simpler than work squeezed in around them later.

Before your chimney inspection in Parramore

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

Should I clean out the firebox before you arrive?

Please leave it as it is. Fallen debris, flakes and ash patterns tell us about the chimney above. Just make sure the fireplace is completely cold and the area in front of it is clear.

Do you give the findings in writing?

You receive a written estimate listing every recommended item, what it fixes and what it leaves alone. We also explain the findings on site so nothing on the page comes as a surprise.
