"I had my chimney and fireplace cleaned by North American Chimney. They gave me a price that was very reasonable. Brian and Franklin came out. They were very courteous and respectful. They did the cleaning and the inspections. They gave me everything in writing I was so pleased with what they did."

"The chimney cleaner/inspector showed up, took no time at all looking at the chimney, and said that it was clean. There are three chimneys, however. So then I asked for a cap for one of the three chimneys to be installed when they went up to do the inspection. One guy zipped up the ladder with the cap and just plopped it on. He then came down the ladder. I asked about the inspection, and he said it was done. The other thing was that it looked like there was a screw in the middle of each side of the cap. These were definitely not tightened to the chimney. I paid for the cap and the inspection. But I do not feel at all satisfied with any kind of inspection that was done. I am hesitant to light a fire in the fireplace in the end. feeling dissatisfied with this service. sadly"

"They have a drone that took excellent photos before and after the job. The The job was to replace the chimney stack from the roof up. The chimney looks great. Unfortunately they delayed the work day 3 times, blaming each other for miscommunication. The day they finally showed up (over a month later) they requested an extra $1,800.00 blaming the other partner for under estimating the job. I regret not telling him to take his scaffolding down and leave. Nice enough guys but that was not right."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

No, you can’t inspect the roof yourself if you want to get your roof certified for your mortgage lender or insurance underwriter. You’ll need to get it inspected by a licensed professional. If you happen to be a licensed inspector, this means that commercial rules apply, and you’d need to get your Remote Pilot Certificate, just as you would if using the drone for another business purpose. 

However, if you want to use a drone to simply check out the roof, it’s considered recreational use. You won’t need your Remote Pilot Certificate, but you’ll still need to register your drone with the FAA and follow FAA and any state guidelines during the flight.

Replacing older chimneys or fireplaces, like wood-burning stoves, with something more eco-friendly can actually increase the value of your home. Some homeowners opt to remove chimneys as they pursue LEED certification, which may also increase the value of your home. But in general, many potential buyers actually look for operational fireplaces in homes, so removing a chimney and fireplace could decrease your home’s value by up to $5,000.

Metal roofs are more resistant to hail than other types of roof materials; however, hail can still damage a metal roof. The extent of the damage depends on the size of the hail and the severity of the hail storm. The type of damage a metal roof can get from hail includes dents, scratches, loose fasteners, leaks, and cracked paint.

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.

You should avoid walking on a slate roof. Though the material is highly durable, it can crack under the pressure of your feet, and the surface of the slate tiles can become extremely slippery when they get wet. Walking on a slate roof is, therefore, more dangerous than walking on something like asphalt shingles, both in terms of personal injury and property damage. If you do have to work on your slate roof, hire a pro. Most contractors use special equipment to avoid putting pressure on slate tiles.
