Chimney inspection explained for Rosemont homeowners

A closer look at the inspection, from our family-owned crew serving Rosemont.

The chase cover on a framed chimney

The chase cover is the metal sheet that closes the top of a framed chase. We look for rust, dents that hold water, loose edges and a sagging middle. One widely installed fireplace maker wants the chase top pitched downward, away from the pipe opening. On your Rosemont home a flat or rusted top tends to announce itself with streaks on the siding or water near the fireplace, and our notes say which part needs replacing and which can stay.

Hardened, glossy deposits in the flue

Glossy, hardened buildup inside a flue is harder to remove than ordinary soot and usually needs more than a brush. When we find it in your Rosemont chimney we note how far it extends and whether it hides the lining underneath. Removal methods differ, and some lining damage only shows after the glaze comes off. The estimate explains that order of work, so a clean flue and a sound flue are never confused with each other. We will not quote a liner or tile repair until the lining can actually be seen.

Antennas, straps and hardware on the chimney

Old antenna mounts, satellite brackets and metal straps were often bolted straight into chimney brick. Each fastener hole can let water in, and a strap pulling on the chimney in wind adds stress to the top courses. Up at the chimney top in Rosemont, we note any hardware, whether it is still in use and what its removal would involve, including sealing the holes it leaves behind. Old anchors are removed carefully so the brick around them is not damaged further. Hardware still in use stays until you decide where it should go.

Before your chimney inspection in Rosemont

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

Can you inspect a chimney on a tile roof?

Yes. We choose where to step and how to reach the chimney so the tiles are protected. If a section cannot be walked safely, we inspect it from a ladder or the ground and note that in the findings.

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.
