"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."

"Bob A. and his co-worker were polite, courteous and competent. They arrived on time and performed the task quickly and easily. In addition, I appreciated the fact that Bob explained what they were doing and why, as well as the fact that the procedure does not necessarily ensure that water will never get into the chimney ever in the future,"

"Cowan's south jersey masonry came out and fixed the top of both chimneys, sealed them and placed the caps on the top and he cleaned out the chimney. I was working and my parents were there and couldn't say enough about the two gentlemen who completed the work. My mom asked if they could fix a crack on our cement sidewalk and they did with no charge! Thank you so much for your professionalism and help with this project. Thank you for fixing my sidewalk. I would recommend this company without reservation."

"Pete from Burn Clean explained everything he was doing and gave us an opportunity to view our chimney before, during, and after he finished the cleaning. Pete had to come back to put on a chimney cap and told us not to pay him until he came back - which he did the very next day. Pete is the owner of this business and I will recommend his services to my family and friends."

Chimney Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

Eaves will last as long as the roof, often 15 to 30 years or more, depending on the type of roof. Since eaves are part of the roof, their life span will depend on the roof's condition, although they can still be damaged by faulty gutters or pest damage, shortening their longevity.

If you spot any of the following signs of a leaking chimney crown, call a pro ASAP:

  • Cracking

  • Crumbling

  • Pooling water

  • Spalling, or flaking chimney masonry

  • Efflorescence, or white watermarks

It’s a good idea to have a roof inspection once every two or three years to catch issues early and avoid major property damage. However, if you recently had a new roof installed, you can safely wait around five to ten years before scheduling an inspection, especially since your workmanship warranty should last about that long. You might also want to schedule more frequent or one-off roof inspections if you are buying or selling a home, if you have issues with leaks or visible damage, or if your homeowner’s insurance company requires an updated inspection.

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.

Regular cleaning, inspecting for peeling or rust, and reapplying coatings every 8-12 years helps maintain durability.
