I could not have asked for a better inspector than Gerald at Scotland Yard. Gerald has an excellent "bedside manner" and made me feel like I was a part of the inspection process throughout. He explained everything in detail as he went, and he was extremely thorough. What I appreciated most was that he was always careful to give his recommendations and observations in context (what problems were urgent and which weren't so important). There are an overwhelming number of issues that come up during a home inspection, so this real-time prioritization was very, very appreciated. If a first time buyer's perspective isn't good enough for you, I should also mention that my agent was extremely impressed with him, along with my dad (a real estate veteran) who reviewed his report. Speaking of Gerald's report, it was clearly laid out, easy to read, and had the perfect amount of detail. Gerald also does a great job of following up and talking you through his recommendations. I really can't recommend Gerald more highly. Stop searching and give him a call!

We have never been able to use the gas logs in the fireplace, first because of a leak which was fixed, and then because we just didn't use it. It didn't seem to be ok. The receptionist that I spoke to very quickly gave me a date and time for the inspection. I had to take 1/2 day off work, but they were very prompt, and called within 15 to 20 minutes of their arrival. Enrique was the technician who did the inspection. He was extremely knowledgeable and as a prior home inspector was very helpful in telling me what to look for. He gave me a bid for their services, but then I also had to get my plumber out to reposition the gas valve. This was rather important as the valve was inside where the fire would be going. It was a good thing we never used it for that reason and for the fact that there was not enough clearance for the air and it was not up to code.
I scheduled the plumber to come out which was an additional $600. This was of course well worth it. Then, I scheduled the rebuilding of the fireplace. This took a good part of the day. The technician who came to do this was very thorough, and he worked the entire four to five hours that he was here. He took out the back of the fireplace and enlarged it so that it would have a greater draw of air. Then he rebricked the back and painted it. He cleaned up when he was done. Then Enrique came out the next afternoon and was right on time and within an hour had finished the spark arrestor, repainted the back of the fireplace, laid the sand and the logs. It looked great!!! I was very pleased. Thank you for a job well done!!"},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ca/van-nuys/fiddler-on-the-roof-chimney-service-reviews-182736.htm"},"position":10}]}

Perri did an amazing job cleaning our chimney. He was prompt, professional, and very thorough. The fireplace has never looked better! I highly recommend him for anyone needing chimney services.
Profesional and timely service. I upgraded the electrical panel in my house and couldnâ t be happier. It passed inspection on the first try and the stucco was patched up properly as well. Fair pricing, would recommend.
My phone call was returned promptly and we were able to book an appointment within a couple of days of my call. The inspector was very thorough and provided a good referral service for mold remediates, if we needed them. The test results came back a few days after the inspection. In all,...

"My son helped me find a Chimney Sweep company in Huntington Beach.
I’m so glad he booked the service with Chimney Sweep Masters as everything was beyond excellent and the overallservice was amazing. Jonathan and Ido did a great job replacing the Chase Cover on my fireplace and installed two new caps as well as a third cap on my Masonary brick chimney.
A big plus was to find out that Jonathan is a licensed general contactor. He was able to provide me with information and pricing on some small and medium size projects I've been planning to get to around the house and he recommended a few other things for the future.
All in all great service highley recommended!!! I'm expecting them to do some additional work for me in the coming weeks in my kitchen and some drywall and paint work."

"I recently hired Chimney Sweep Masters to replace our old, rusty fireplace, which was deemed unsafe by multiple inspectors due to its age and condition. Our fireplace issues began last winter when we discovered a leak from what we later identified as a Chase Cover. After deciding to replace the fireplace, we chose Chimney Sweep Masters for the job, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. The entire process was seamless. The office staff and the installation team were excellent, guiding us through various options and allowing us ample time to make the best choice. The new stone façade and gorgeous mantle have transformed the fireplace, and we absolutely love the results. Overall, it was a five-star experience."

FAQs for chimney inspection projects in La Palma, CA
The average cost for a professional chimney cleaning is around $250, but prices range from $130 to $400 or more, depending on a few factors. Some things that have an impact on your total include the size of your chimney, the number of chimneys cleaned, and how accessible the chimneys are.
The cost to install a fireplace is $2,440 on average. This cost can range from $150 to $8,000 or more, depending on the type of fireplace, the materials used, and the size.
Electric fireplaces cost around $1,000 to install, and mostly only require wiring installation. Installing a wood fireplace from scratch could cost upwards of $10,000, depending on the foundation needed to support the weight of the fireplace. In addition, gas fireplaces can cost between $2,500 and $10,000.
The National Fire Prevention Agency (NFPA) recommends chimney sweeping once per year as a means of avoiding house fires and massive property damage. Over time, creosote and soot build up in your chimney from burning wood and a lack of ventilation. These compounds are both highly flammable, which means a build-up of them inside your chimney puts you at an increased risk of house fire. Chimney sweeping removes any residue and helps reduce the risk of property damage and personal injury from fire.
The cost to remodel your fireplace is $1,200 on average. This cost can range from $400 to $2,000, depending on the extent of work needed.

If choosing tile, you can pay between $1 and $50per square foot, depending on the design. Stone is a more expensive material, averaging between $60 and $70 per square foot.
On average, chimney repairs cost about $455. However, because of the vast range of potential repairs needed, the cost to repair a chimney ranges widely from $160 to $15,000, depending on the type and extent of repairs required.
