"Victor is very professional and a warm hearted gentleman. We are new owners of a home that used the fireplace extensively. There was a strong and lingering odor of ash. Victor at Chimney Sweeps pencilled us in quickly and came on time. He and his worker performed a professional job, wasting no time and completing everything efficiently. Care was taken so as not to leave any dirt on the floors. He diagnosed the situation and shared how long ago since the old owners cleaned the chimney. I heartily recommend Chimney Needs USA. S.L.

Customers say: Terrific value

"Paul (the owner) was very helpful in inspecting a wood stove in our house to make sure of its proper operation. He also identified that our chimney pipe was too short from a code and proper airflow perspective. Because this was an unexpected repair, he was very transparent and showed me both pictures of the chimney on the roof, town building code documents, as well as looked up pricing with me for the components on a number of 3rd party sites so we were totally aligned on final price for the fix. He also made some last adjustments I requested (while it was raining!) Would recommend his services to anyone and look forward to using him again."

Chimney Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

You may not always be able to see a soft spot on the roof from the exterior. If the underlying damage isn’t yet severe enough to cause the shingles to buckle or show other signs of damage, you may not be able to see that there’s a problem from the outside. A roof inspection will be able to identify soft spots. When a roofer walks on the surface of your roof, they’ll be able to find soft or spongy sections.

In most cases, it is best to leave icicles on your roof and allow them to melt naturally. You should only consider removing them if they are heavy enough to cause damage to your home or pose a risk to people below. Since removing icicles can be dangerous, it is recommended to hire a professional for the job if you have immediate concerns. To prevent the issue from recurring, you should address the underlying cause, such as improving your home's insulation or installing roof heating coils.

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.

Homeowners insurance may cover chimney leaks, repairs, or replacement, but coverage depends on the cause of the damage. If the chimney is damaged by a sudden, covered peril like a lightning strike, storm, hail, fallen tree, or an unexpected fire, your policy is likely to cover the costs. However, insurance generally does not cover damage resulting from normal wear and tear, old age, or a lack of proper maintenance, such as failing to perform regular cleanings and inspections. If a fire or other damage is caused by a known issue you didn't address, the claim may be denied. Additionally, some policies may have specific exclusions for events like high winds or earthquakes.

While a few icicles on your roof are standard, a large accumulation can be a sign of a bigger problem, such as poor insulation. This is particularly true if you are also dealing with ice dams. If you have numerous large icicles, it is recommended to have a roofing contractor diagnose potential insulation issues and create a plan to solve them.
