"Awesome customer service, Mary called the day before with an appointment reminder and Nathan the technician called the morning of the scheduled appointment to advise his ETA. He arrived on time and performed the cleaning and inspection quickly and with professionalism. He provided advice and recommendations for optimizing the performance and safety of the wood stove and chimney. I will have this company work for me again."

"I own a colonial era property circa 1765. The stone chimney and the three fireplaces are central to our life in the home. Our oil burning furnace uses an additional flue and over the years the ancient clay lining has deteriorated endangering both the structural integrity of chimney and safety of the home. Our Shamrock technicians explained to me exactly what was happening in the chimney and their steps to mitigate damage and ensure safety in the home for years to come. I will be calling Shamrock on a yearly basis for further inspection and cleaning of our chimney."

"I needed repairs on my chimney and the owner Dave came out and gave me a quote for a new cap and tear down of the first three rows at the top of the chimney. He was courteous and professional and gave me a reasonable quote to complete the job outlined. He came out a few weeks later and completed the job as promised. He and his team were polite, cleaned up upon completion and the Chimney looks great. He said if I had waited any longer it would have been a much bigger problem. I appreciated his insight and it was evident he has been doing this for some time. I will recommend him to family and friends if they ever need chimney work."

"Steve from Chimney and Duct Experts came on site did a very thorough inspection/quote for free. He took phones with drone and explained what needs to be done. Steve came back in a week, cleaned, installed a new liner, top plate, tee and cap. Also applied moisture blocker. After the project is done, I no longer smell the leaky exhuast from the furnace coming out of the wood stove. I'm very satisfied with the project."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

If you don’t see obvious signs of roof leaks, like water spots on the ceilings inside or visible damage to the roof membrane, the best way to check for leaks is to have a professional complete a heat scan of your roof. This will identify areas where water has penetrated the membrane and is keeping the roof cooler in certain areas.

The most crucial roof-strengthening method is achievable by following proper construction methods and guidelines from the start. To strengthen an existing roof, framers and DIYers can add hurricane ties or straps to the structure, sister rafters and other framing or truss members, or install additional fasteners or adhesives where necessary.

Before hiring a roofing contractor, it's wise to ask several key questions. Inquire if they are licensed for roof replacement and repair and if they hold any special certifications. Ask if they will be completing all the work themselves or subcontracting parts of it. It's also important to understand the project timeline, whether they will remove the old roof or place new shingles on top, and how they will handle cleanup after the project is complete. Finally, ask about warranties for both work and materials, what recourse you have if issues like leaks arise, and if they can provide customer references.

A standard roof can hold a live load of about 20 pounds per square foot. However, gable roofs often have steeper-than-average slopes, so calculating their weight capacity can be challenging. If the slope of your gable roof is greater than 4:12, the live load needs to be decreased to allow for a larger dead load. Ask your roofer exactly how much weight your roof can support.

Common issues discovered during a chimney inspection or cleaning include creosote buildup, cracked liners, structural degeneration or masonry degradation, and obstructions such as blocked flues or animal nests. These issues are potential safety hazards that can lead to combustion problems or poor air quality if not addressed.
