"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."

"Hiring Adore construction was the best decision for repairing my chimneys. Jack was excellent, very professional, on time and very reasonably priced. Jack's price was $9,000 less than my previous estimate for my chimney company. I will be using Adore for everything related to my chimney and roof"

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

Yes, a roof blister can cause a leak if it gets to the point where it pops. Prior to popping, a roof blister is just an aesthetic issue, but once it pops, you’re left with a small hole in the shingle. Water from rain and snow can easily get inside this hole and interact with your underlayment, roof decking, and the building material below.

Roof inspections can be dangerous, especially if you aren’t used to working at heights or lack proper safety equipment. Professional contractors have the right tools and gear to conduct inspections safely. Inspectors systematically approach roof inspections, ensuring that every aspect of your roof is thoroughly examined. 

Remember, DIY inspections are not a substitute for professional assessments. If you notice any issues or are unsure about the condition of your roof, it’s always best to consult a professional roofing contractor near you.

Before hiring a roofing contractor, it's wise to ask several key questions. Inquire if they are licensed for roof replacement and repair and if they hold any special certifications. Ask if they will be completing all the work themselves or subcontracting parts of it. It's also important to understand the project timeline, whether they will remove the old roof or place new shingles on top, and how they will handle cleanup after the project is complete. Finally, ask about warranties for both work and materials, what recourse you have if issues like leaks arise, and if they can provide customer references.

There are a few things you should look out for that suggest your chimney needs repair. The most obvious of which is leaking around the bricks or stone, which should be addressed by a professional immediately. If you’re unsure of its repair status, consider conducting a chimney inspection. Some other repair signs include:

  • Smoky smell in your home when you’re using your chimney

  • Visible damage to the bricks or mortar between them

  • Chimney is pulling away from your home

  • Portions of the brick are flaking away or crumbling

  • Visible cracks that travel through the mortar in a stair-step formation

You should consider walking away from a home purchase after an inspection reveals major issues you are unprepared to deal with, such as structural damage, environmental problems, or significant issues with the roof or mechanical systems. These problems can cost tens of thousands of dollars to fix. Before making a decision, it's a good idea to get professional estimates for the repair costs to determine if the home is still worth buying. You should also consider external factors like the state of the housing market and how quickly you need to relocate.
