Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Inspections include examining flue liners, interior walls, fireplace assembly, and materials for obstructions, build-ups, or signs of wear and recommending necessary action.

You can determine if your ductwork needs rerouting by looking for common signs of issues. Uneven heating or cooling in different areas of your home, unusual noises from the ducts, and a noticeable increase in energy bills may all indicate problems with your duct system. Additionally, if you've recently renovated or there are structural changes in your home, it's a good idea to assess whether your current ductwork layout is still efficient. 

It depends on the bank and the extent of the issue. Some banks will lend against homes with minor foundation damage, but most won’t if the issue is structural since the home acts as collateral for the mortgage. Banks that offer renovation loans might still finance a home with structural problems. More minor issues like settling cracks and intermittent problems with humidity are unlikely to stop a bank from financing.

Failing to open your flue can lead to serious health hazards if you start a fire because the smoke will back up into your home. Breathing fire smoke, even in relatively small quantities, is bad for human lungs, and smoke can also irritate your nasal passages and eyes. Furthermore, smoke can cause damage to your interior fixtures and furnishings, at the very least leaving an unpleasant smoky smell for a long time. In short: If your flue isn’t open (or you’re not sure if it is or not), don’t start a fire to find out!

Services typically take 1-2 hours, depending on the stove’s condition and accessibility.
