"Better late than never leaving this review! We got in touch with Fireside Gas and Chimney last year to finally get a wood stove installed that we had been sitting on for a while due to not being able to find a service with time for us. Even late in the year, they were able to get us onto their schedule in a reasonable amount of time. We worked with James, who I cannot speak highly enough of. I undertook the building of the hearth for our stove myself, and James was more than helpful in answering questions I had about making sure the project was safely constructed and met dimensional codes. Even through some hiccups in scheduling, including bad weather, and cases of covid, they were able to keep the install moving swiftly, and made sure we got prioritized when things started to drag on longer than expected. The install was fast, professional, and looks great. Iâ m happy we had James doing this work for us. He sourced high quality materials, maintained great communication, brought a wealth of knowledge from his time in firefighting, and relived me of the anxiety of having to cut a hole in my own house. Our stove went in toward the end of January, and we canâ t imagine our home without it now. It has seriously cut into our heating bill! These are the guys you want for your stove install!"

Neat Sweep Chimney Services is a Full Service Chimney Maintenance and Repair Business. Homeowners should be aware of the importance of having their Chimneys Swept and Inspected annually. During the burn season Chimneys are exposed to a wide range of temperatures and harsh seasonal conditions. Having your Chimney Swept and Inspected is an easy way to ensure the system is free of any blockages and meets the minimum acceptable levels of Chimney Safety. A Level 2 Chimney Inspection is typically required upon the sale or transfer of property or anytime the system's experienced a significant change such as a Chimney Fire. We also Service Dryer Vents! One of the most important factors playing a role in your Dryer's overall performance is its Venting System. Dryer Vents should be free and clear of excessive lint and debris. When servicing these systems a before and after Air Flow reading is taken to ensure maximum efficiency and shortest possible dry time for your clothing.

"Nick responded promptly to our request for a chimney inspection. He did an excellent job. His inspection report was very professional."

Our professional team has the knowledge and expertise to handle any roofing job that you need completed. For professional and prompt roofing services, call on Top Notch Roofing!

"They care. And it is obvious. I would recommend them 1000 times over. I started my search for a roofing contractor during the pandemic and was universally unimpressed with the bulk of contractors who came to estimate the job. That is, prior to meeting Gabe and the folks at Top Notch. Not only are the competitively priced, but they send an actual roofing expert out for estimating, as opposed to a salesman. I immediately felt was in good hands as he answered all my questions with authority and knowledge. On the job site, the crew was clean, polite, and professional. We did have a few hiccups along the way, which as anyone who has ever done renovation can tell you, is par for the course. These specific hiccups were discontinued products and shipping damages that were simply accidents. Just bad luck that had nothing to do with Top Notch. But it was their reaction to the situation that really won me over. Gabe, the foreman, and Jessica went above and beyond to come to my house on multiple weekends to install skylights because that is the kind of business they operate."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

Depending on location, sellers are often legally required to disclose a home’s defects to buyers, even if the home is being sold as-is. Certain types of defects, such as asbestos, mold, previous water damage, structural issues, and other safety risks, may be required to be disclosed, so check local laws to see what needs to be disclosed and what doesn’t.

If the anode rod is no longer protecting your tank, you’ll spot telltale signs when you turn on a faucet. A bad anode rod can cause discoloration in your water, a rotten egg smell, intermittent hot water, and air in the water lines. Since these are symptoms of sediment damage to your water heater, don’t wait for them to occur before checking on the anode rod. 

In most cases, inspection costs are not included in closing costs. The inspection is usually a standalone expense the buyer or seller covers by choice. Closing costs are normally required and designed to cover other costs, such as appraisal fees, title search fees, and attorney fees.

Yes, if your home inspection reveals issues with the property you intend to buy, you may come up with a counter-offer. Your counter-offer should consider all necessary repairs and how much they’ll likely cost you. It’s important to find a good balance between your desired selling price and asking price to increase the chances of an offer acceptance.

Yes, deck footings typically require an inspection before laying down concrete. While not all local building codes require footing inspection, proper placement ensures a safe and structurally sound deck. An inspector will verify that the deck can adequately hold what you put on top of it., and that the footings have been dug to the correct dimensions.
