"We hired Sixpenny to repair our wood-burning fireplace by installing a new insulated stainless steel chimney liner, repairing the smoke chamber, and replacing the chimney cap. From the initial inspection through completion, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. They documented their findings with photos, explained the recommended repairs clearly, and answered all of our questions without pressure. The work itself was completed efficiently with good attention to protecting the home and cleaning up afterward. The entire process was seamless, and we feel much more confident in the safety and condition of our fireplace. I would definitely recommend Sixpenny to anyone needing chimney inspection or repair work."

"I've used American Professional several times at various houses I've lived in or owned. They are an honest and professional company that does good work and stands behind it. I recently got them to give me an estimate on rebuilding the top portion of a chimney that needs brickwork. They inspected the chimney, told me it was safe to use, and gave me a very reasonable estimate for the chimney rebuild, saying that it can wait until spring if I wish. From my experience, they will do everything they can to satisfy the customer, whether it's a simple chimney cleaning or custom work. This is the best chimney company in the DC area by far."

"Best Chimney Services LLC installed a stainless-steel flue liner and a cap/damper at the top of the chimney. The finished product, from the cap/damper at the top of the chimney, down the liner in the chimney to the firebox at the bottom is picture perfect. Even the concrete crown was perfectly molded with no concrete mess anywhere. Chris Hernandez and his helper arrived on time and got right to work, putting a big tarp on the hearth and surrounding floor and plastic over nearby furniture. Tarps were also spread on the roof. When the work was finished, everything was cleaned up, including vacuuming the area around the fireplace. Chris has a number of certifications regarding all aspects of fireplaces, flues, caps, dampers, etc. and can explain in understandable terms why things are done a certain way. He and his helper certainly know what they are doing and have obviously had experience doing it. A week or so before the actual work, a thorough inspection was done . . ."

"Lewis, Derrick and Gabriel at American Chimney went beyond the normal chimney inspection and cleaning. They saved me from replacing my whole chimney and fireplace system. They also gave me a courtesy inspection of my dryer vent system which was not up to code and had years of lint buildup. They replace my dryer vent system and made it to code. The work and customer service was amazing and I would recommend them to anyone."

"Chip was punctual, professional and knowledgeable. He inspected, cleaned and serviced two gas fireplaces in my home. Chip was also responsive when I had a follow up question after the service. I will use the company again and recommend them to others."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

If you need to replace the roof over your attached garage, a roofing contractor can perform what is called a partial roof replacement that only affects garage roofing. However, it's important to keep in mind that only replacing a portion of your roof creates a situation where your roofing has two different lifespans. You will also miss out on the opportunity for a full roof warranty. In some cases, having two different roofs on your home could increase risks for leaks. When replacing the roof on a detached garage, homeowners have the option to make the project bigger by upgrading their home roof alongside their garage roof. However, this isn't necessary if your home has a newer, properly functioning roof. It is better to try to match the new garage roof to your home's existing roof instead.

A roof can collapse from a leak if the leak is left unattended long enough. A collapse will happen when the structural components of your roof become saturated with water over time. The roof deck or rafters can slowly weaken until they can no longer support the weight of your roof.

Eaves will last as long as the roof, often 15 to 30 years or more, depending on the type of roof. Since eaves are part of the roof, their life span will depend on the roof's condition, although they can still be damaged by faulty gutters or pest damage, shortening their longevity.

It’s possible to walk on a clay tile roof, but you run the risk of breaking or cracking the tiles if you’re not careful, so it’s best not to walk on it if you can avoid it. If you or a contractor needs roof access, be sure to distribute your weight evenly and step on the portions of tile that are also supported underneath, which depends on your tile design. Walking on any roofing material is inherently dangerous, so wear rubber-soled shoes and use safety equipment if you need to access your roof.

Sometimes. Professionals may be able to remove the old roof and re-attach it when completed, depending on your blueprints. That can help you save money. But this method is not without its risks. Larger roofs may crack during the transportation process. And if the roof is old or has problems, it may be better to replace it entirely. Keeping the old roof isn’t always possible if you are making significant alterations to the roofline.
