"Can’t say enough about how professional this company was with the inspection and estimate we received. They were super honest about the condition of our chimney(it’s in really good shape no work needed), so I trust them with the replacement of our liner. I know we are getting a quality product because it’s life time guaranteed. Work is schedule for a couple weeks out. I will add more to my review then."

"I recently hired Omar, Christ, and Julio for a chimney cleaning and inspection, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. They arrived right on schedule, worked efficiently, and made sure everything was safe and in great condition. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and very respectful of my home. I highly recommend them to anyone needing chimney work!"

"I had them do a cleaning and inspection of my chimney and they found damages to the brickwork and the top of the chimney. They installed a new cap and their cost was so reasonable. All their work is guaranteed as well, which is reassuring. They were clean, efficient and courteous. I would highly recommend Handy Andy and in fact they are doing an estimate for my neighbor to whom I recommended them to."

"I’m so happy I hired legacy chimney. They were extremely personable, and left my home exactly how they found it when they were finished with the job— We have young children, and that was definitely a concern but I would have never known they were here. Cannot recommend them enough!"

Hi, I’m Kaylee! I’m a dependable, hardworking, and detail-oriented cleaner who takes pride in creating clean, comfortable, and welcoming spaces.\n\nI have some experience with vacation rental turnovers, office cleaning, and regularly cleaning and sanitizing a childcare environment. I’m organized, reliable, and comfortable working independently, and I understand how important it is for a vacation rental to be thoroughly cleaned and ready on time for the next guest.\n\nI’m currently growing my independent cleaning business and would love to connect with local vacation rental owners and property managers. \n\nI’m looking forward to building lasting relationships with property owners and providing reliable, consistent service they can count on!

"Mark was the only chimney company that advertised emergency service that could come and inspect my chimney after a significant fire on the same day. All others were 5-6 days out. Showed up inspected did a recline for me on a Sunday to get me up and running again. Appreciated that aspect of his service. However seemed to be a little disorganized and was having issues finding reliable help in the off season. Trying to give him the benefit of the doubt as he seemed to be fighting off the flu also. As far as the quality of his work it was good and he was fair with his pricing . Would give him another try."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

You only need to replace a roof before moving if it’s extremely old or has more than just a couple minor damages. For instance, leaks, uplifted shingles, or obvious holes are issues no one wants to deal with right when they move in, and will automatically repel potential buyers that might have otherwise been interested.

Start by asking friends, family, and neighbors if they know any reliable roof inspectors. You can also ask contractors that you’ve worked with in the past—they often have a network of people they can reach out to. Once you do find a roof inspector you like, check their online presence, read customer reviews, and give them a call. 

Make sure they’re properly licensed and insured in your area. It’s also a good idea to hire inspectors licensed by both the National Roof Certification & Inspection Association (NRCIA) and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI).

Yes, roof ridge caps are a necessary part of your roof system. Your roof ridge cap is at the peak of your roof, where two slopes of your roof meet. Roof ridge caps seal the seam and help protect your roof from water and debris, and because they’re pre-bent and thicker, they’re more suited to the job than regular roof shingles, which can break when bent.

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.

Inspections should be conducted annually, and minor repairs should be made as needed.
