From the hearth to the cap in Union Park

Our crew in Union Park looks at these points and records what we could reach and what we could not.

  1. Chimney cap, lid height and spark screen
  2. Brick, stucco or stone faces above the roof
  3. Nests, debris or blockages in the flue
  4. Glass doors, screen and firebox panels

How we inspect chimneys in Union Park

Before you book in Union Park, these points are worth knowing.

A cricket behind a wide chimney

Rain running down a roof piles up against the uphill face of a chimney. When a chimney is more than thirty inches wide along the ridge direction and does not meet the ridge, section R1003.20 of the Florida code calls for a cricket, a small peaked diverter that splits the flow around it. We measure the chimney at your Union Park home, check for a cricket and inspect its flashing. If one is missing, the roofing work it involves is written up as a separate line.

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 Union Park 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.

What the free inspection covers

The inspection itself costs nothing. We look at the fireplace, the chimney and the roof junction within the access available, explain what we see and hand you a written estimate for any work we recommend. Cleaning, repairs and extra access such as removing panels are separate services with their own prices. Homeowners in Union Park get every line in writing before deciding, with no obligation to book anything. If you want time to think, keep the estimate and call with any follow-up question.

What people in Union Park ask about chimney inspections

Short answers from our chimney team in Union Park. Call for anything not covered here.

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.

Can you look at a chimney on a home I am under contract to buy?

Yes. Tell us the closing timeline and any concern already raised. We inspect within the access the seller allows and give you the findings and any repair estimate in writing.
