"We had a chimney fire in February and we had them come inspect the chimney damage and stove condition. They installed a new stainless chimney liner and new Jotul wood stove. We couldn’t be happier with the service and purchase. Top notch experience! We highly recommend!"

"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."

"The process went well. The men showed up on time and got the job done quickly and very professionally. They cleaned up very well before they left. The men were very respectful of our house and yard as they completed their work. I will use them again to clean the chimney and keep our unit in great shape and safe."

"I was contacted the same day I submitted my inquiry and had a scheduled appointment with in 24 hours. Finest Chimney contacted me 25 minutes before they arrived and they were exactly on time. Cleaning took about 20 minutes and they were very thorough and professional. They even gave me some feed back about future roof/chimney repairs. I will definitely call Finest Chimney Sweep for our future needs."

"Tim was timely, thorough, and honest about the state of my chimney and work that needed to be done. He was very professional, but down to earth and easy to work with. I have worked with him in the past, and know that he is meticulous with his inspection and trust his professional guidance with the work that needs to be done. I highly recommend Top Shelf Chimney. I will be using them again for the repairs and for future inspections."

"They were great. They had a cancellation and came the next day to close our damper and cleaned the chimney at the same time and only charged us for the cleaning. Then they fit us in a week later to seal a crack at the chimney top. They gave us before and after pics of everything. They were punctual, professional and experienced and I recommend them highly to anyone looking for chimney services."

"The project choices above did not match the actual project -- which was to inspect and then clean my wood-burning prefab fireplace. Logan did an excellent job, and I've referred him and the company to two of my neighbors. He also helped me understand the scope of the work as well as other work that the condo association needs to consider. it was also important in case the condo association questions my choice of vendor, that he has the appropriate certification from the Chimney Safety Institute of America"

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, many chimney professionals offer cap installations to prevent debris buildup and animal entry.

You can enjoy your TPO roof by making it into a rooftop deck. However, homeowners should use caution when hosting events on the roof. Specifically, no one should ever smoke a cigarette on a TPO roof, as they could burn holes in the roofing material and cause leaks. Also, it can be slippery. Homeowners can buy no-slip walk pads to keep people safe on the roof. You can also install a "floating deck" over the top of the TPO,  but your roofer has to be sure to never put any fasteners through the TPO.

While some homeowners may feel confident conducting their own roof inspections, hiring a professional roofing inspector is recommended for a safe and accurate assessment. Professional roof inspectors have the knowledge and experience to identify even the smallest signs of damage or potential issues and they can spot problems that may go unnoticed by an untrained eye.

Structural problems with the foundation or roof, water damage, and significant plumbing or electrical issues are all considered major red flags in a home inspection. Of these, a structural problem related to the foundation is often the most severe. Foundation repairs are typically the most expensive and intrusive to carry out, averaging around $5,000 but sometimes reaching up to $16,000. Because these problems can pose safety risks and be costly to fix, you should ask your inspector detailed questions about any identified issues. You will need to carefully consider how major problems affect what you’re willing to pay for the home, or if you want to proceed with the sale at all.
