"Made the appointment Thursday for Saturday at 2:30. Saturday 2:30 I get a knock on the door, Brian introduced himself... clean, friendly, and ready to hit the chimney. Gets his equipment, and gets to work. He cleaned out and inspected the firebox. Checked out the flue and the protective screen then cleaned the chimney. When he was done with the inside, he went up on the roof and finished inspecting the chimney from the top making sure that everything was functioning as it should. Came back in, packed up all his gear, made sure the area was clean. I asked about their "Fire and Ice" system. Gave me the info I needed, no hard sell simply answered my questions. Based on this experience I will use them again to clean my other fireplace and other services that they offer."
Black stains shows evidence of hazardous cracks in firebox. Top 6” and lintel bar removed from fireplace. Not ever a good idea. Potentially making fireplace unsafe to use.

"The recent winds in Fontana ripped my chimney cover and it was just hanging up there and making noise with the slightest wind. I called on Wednesday and Richard from Madison air called me right away. He came out on Thursday and replaced my chimney cover that day. They were early and it took about an hour. I have a 3 story house. Richard and his employee were very nice and explained everything to me. He even check the fireplace for me giving me some tips regarding the placement of the logs and other things. Cost wise I have nothing to compare it with but was okay with the amount, especially since they came right away. Didn’t want birds to build a nest or any other animal to get in there. Yes, I would recommend Madison Air. If you need anything done regarding your chimney, call them. Thank you Madison Air!!!"

"Jose was prompt, courteous and professional. His knowledge of prefab fireplaces is extensive and he even found a flaw in the original installation and repaired it. I would recommend him to anyone needing repairs. I would also rate his work with 5 stars, which this review wouldn’t let me do."

Chimney Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

Generally, snow guards are not required by building codes unless a local municipality has included them in their code. Even though they are not usually required, snow guards are highly recommended, especially for metal roofs in areas that see significant snowfall throughout the year. They act as a barrier to large loads of snow that can slide off a roof, potentially injuring people and damaging property.

Walking on the roof to clean gutters is unsafe and not recommended due to significant safety risks. It is especially dangerous on steep or slippery roofs, or if the roof is wet or covered in leaves, which increases the chance of a fall. In addition to personal injury, walking on the roof can damage shingles, potentially leading to water leaks. Instead of walking on the roof, use a sturdy ladder positioned on a stable surface to access the gutters. Be aware that using a ladder also carries risks, as it can be difficult to maintain balance while performing the work. You can also use ground-based cleaning tools. For safety reasons and to prevent damage to your roof, hiring a professional to clean your gutters is the best and safest option.

No, you can’t inspect the roof yourself if you want to get your roof certified for your mortgage lender or insurance underwriter. You’ll need to get it inspected by a licensed professional. If you happen to be a licensed inspector, this means that commercial rules apply, and you’d need to get your Remote Pilot Certificate, just as you would if using the drone for another business purpose. 

However, if you want to use a drone to simply check out the roof, it’s considered recreational use. You won’t need your Remote Pilot Certificate, but you’ll still need to register your drone with the FAA and follow FAA and any state guidelines during the flight.

The most obvious and severe sign of a roof leak is the presence of wet spots on your ceilings, specifically on the top floor of your home. You can also identify a roof leak from your attic if you see sagging insulation or if you notice mold growth or water stains on the rafters or the underside of the roof deck. From the street, look for cracked or missing shingles, moss growth, and shingles that are curling upward, all of which can suggest a leak.

Inspect annually for damage, clean debris, and reapply sealant to maintain protection.
