Our Services

If you live in Kalamazoo and are Googling “chimney inspection,” you’re probably worried about creosote, blocked flues, or smoke creeping back into the house. A proper inspection checks for that black, tar-like creosote that can ignite, clears any obstructions, and tests the draft to make sure smoke goes up, not into your living room. We’ll also look for cracked or loose bricks, corrosion on the metal crown, and any signs of water damage that could turn a small flaw into a fire hazard. Pricing is flat-rate and transparent – no hidden fees – and you can set up an appointment online or by calling (888) 295-7280. The job usually takes an hour or so, includes a visual interior and exterior walk-through, a brush-out of the flue, and a written report of what needs fixing.

Our reliable chimney inspection checks every inch of the flue for creosote buildup and cracks. We look for blocked passages that can cause smoke to back into your home. The crew checks draft performance and marks any loose bricks. Early detection stops potential fires before they start. Residents of Kalamazoo trust us for safety.
