Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

There are several signs that your chimney is dirty and ready for cleaning. Look for the following:

  • A buildup of creosote and soot inside the chimney

  • The room fills with smoke when you use the fireplace

  • The damper is black with creosote residue

  • When you light a fire, it quickly goes out

In general, it’s best to schedule a cleaning at least once a year before winter so you can safely use the fireplace. 

While most house creaking is expected to some extent and under normal conditions, it's not a good idea to ignore new noises. If other problems accompany the creakiness, like cement cracks, wobbly or loose stair components, or moving trimwork, it's time to look into the potential for foundation trouble or other structural problems.

The biggest sign that you should repipe your house is if your pipes are past the average life span. Also, if your pipes are made of lead, polybutylene, or galvanized steel, it's best to repipe your home to avoid dangerous chemicals from leaching into your water supply.

You may also want to repipe your house if your plumbing is constantly having problems with leaks, corrosion, and low water quality. The cost to repipe a house is $1,500 to $15,000.

Without regular proactive maintenance, your home and the things in it will wear out, break, or otherwise deteriorate much faster than they would with routine maintenance. Regular home maintenance also helps to prevent major problems down the road. For example, regular gutter cleaning will help avoid roof and foundation problems caused by pooling water and improper drainage. 

At a minimum, landlords typically perform an apartment home inspection before tenants move in and after they move out. Most lease agreements include a “right to entry” clause allowing for “inspection by the landlord.” They do this to check for damage, identify repairs and maintenance needs, and ensure tenants are following property rules.
