"Chimney experts was very professional in both scheduling and the job. Al was very thorough to not only look at the chimney, but also to stay with me until we had fully built a fire and had it burning long enough to run a full test of the appliance. Would highly suggest for inspection and installation- they know the business well."

Customers say: Quick response

"I cannot recommend this cleaning company highly enough! I hired them to do a deep clean on a three-story townhome to get it ready for the rental market, and they exceeded every expectation. Preparing a rental property is always stressful, but they made the transition seamless. Managing three floors of living space is no small feat, but the team tackled it with incredible efficiency and attention to detail. Here is what really impressed me: Flawless Attention to Detail: They didn't just do a surface wipe-down. They got into every nook and cranny, from the baseboards and window tracks to the inside of the appliances and cabinets. Tackled the High-Traffic Areas: With three floors, stairs can be a nightmare to get perfectly clean. They made the stairwells and banisters look brand new. Professional & Reliable: They arrived right on time, brought all their own high-quality supplies, and worked tirelessly until the job was done."

"The owner, Kevin Knight, has to be one of the most honest and genuine individual's for which I have had perform services at my home. Several years ago they installed the FireGuard system, which resolved a safety issue without having to reline the chimney (saving us thousands). They were just back out to inspect and clean the chimney. Once again, they were professional, knowledgeable and more than fair. Stop searching and hire these guys. You'll be glad you did. Ask for Kevin."

"They came on time and repaired the chimney. The repair involved removing the cracked cap, and loose bricks. They then replaced the bricks, pointed cracks, put moisture barrier and an expansion joint around the stack and then replaced the cap. Took pictures & cleaned up."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

Most manufacturers’ warranties do not cover wind damage to roof shingles, but some companies include a wind warranty rider in their warranty offer. You can purchase this rider to protect yourself, your wallet, and your roof from any damage that might occur from wind. Be sure to read all the fine print and understand any limitations of the warranty.

The ridge is the horizontal line where two sloping roof sections meet at the top, forming the highest point of the roof. A hip, on the other hand, is the external angle formed where two roof sections meet and slope downward toward the walls, typically at a lower angle than the ridge. The ridge runs horizontally along the peak and the hip runs diagonally from the peak to the roof's edges.

In many areas, chimney repair companies need to be licensed, but it depends on your state and local municipality. You can check with your local building department to see if companies need licenses, and then you can use Angi’s license lookup tool to confirm that the company you’re considering holds the proper license. It’s a good idea to confirm that the professional is fully insured, and you can ask about certification from organizations like the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA). These certifications aren’t mandatory, but they help ensure a professional repair.

Inspections for new construction may not be legally required, but you should consider them a must if you’re buying a new home. The quality of the construction can vary widely by builder, and many inspections, even for brand-new homes, can uncover problems with framing, structural components, mechanicals, appliances, and more. Professional inspection reports give you leverage to push the associated repair costs to the builder rather than paying for them yourself, so they’re always worthwhile, if only for the peace of mind they provide.

If you suspect that your roof is leaking, you can hire a professional roofing contractor to inspect it to find the source of the issue. There are many possible reasons why your roof is leaking, including broken shingles, damaged flashing, clogged gutters, and more. A roof leak inspection will help you pinpoint the exact cause of the leak and the pro will suggest the best way to resolve it.
