Creosote is what burns in a chimney fire. Third-degree creosote is glazed and hot enough to crack flue tile, and removing it is the entire point of an annual sweep.
A Level 2 inspection with a video scan is the standard before a property transfer, after a chimney fire, or when the appliance or fuel type changes.
Freeze-thaw cycling is the governing condition. Water that gets into masonry, grout or a roof detail expands when it freezes and widens the gap it entered through.
What the job includes
- Annual sweeping and creosote removal
- Level 1 and Level 2 inspections
- Stainless cap and crown repair
- Flue liner installation
- Flashing and leak repair
- Dryer vent cleaning
