What goes into a chimney inspection in Williamsburg
Practical points from our chimney inspectors in Williamsburg.
Replacement parts that do not match the system
Over the years a factory-built fireplace can collect replacement parts from wherever an owner could find them. A cap from one brand on another brand's pipe, or panels cut down to fit, can change how the system behaves compared with how it was tested. Our specialists in Williamsburg note anything that looks out of place and explain why it matters. We would rather tell you a part is uncertain than guess, and the estimate names the matching part when one is still made.
A chimney that carries more than one flue
Some chimneys hold two or more flues side by side, serving separate fireplaces or appliances. Each flue is its own passage with its own condition, so one clean, sound flue says nothing about its neighbor. At your Williamsburg home we identify which opening each flue serves and inspect them one at a time. The findings keep them apart, so a repair on one never reads as approval for the other. Flues sharing a chimney wall can also affect each other, so we check the separation between them where it can be seen.
Before remodeling the room around a fireplace
New flooring, a new mantel or a refaced fireplace wall all touch the parts the code controls, such as the hearth extension and the space around the opening. Checking the fireplace before the remodel starts is easier than correcting it after. For a remodel in Williamsburg, we inspect the firebox, hearth and surround and explain which measurements your designer or contractor should keep in mind. A new hearth or surround must also suit the fireplace type, since factory-built units have their own clearances. We are glad to review the plan with your contractor before materials are ordered.
