Chimney Inspection In Fairfield County CT

National Chimney Service provides all three levels of professional chimney inspection for our customers in Stamford CT, Norwalk CT, Fairfield CT, Greenwich CT, Bridgeport CT, and other communities throughout Fairfield County Connecticut.

What Happens during a Chimney Inspection?

Basic annual chimney inspections are fairly simple procedures – for us, not for a novice with little or no chimney experience. With a basic inspection, we closely examine all visible areas of your chimney structure and components. We’re looking for signs of damage that if ignored could turn into serious safety or performance risks.

We won’t clutter up your Fairfield County home during a basic chimney inspection, and we’re always extra careful to make sure the work area looks the same when we leave it as it did when we entered it.

Issues We often Find during an Inspection

Common chimney issues uncovered during a basic inspection often include:

• Small cracks beginning in the exterior chimney bricks that can lead to structural compromise
• Signs of decay within the chimney’s mortar joints that can eventually cause your chimney to lean or collapse
• Ill-fitted or rusted chimney flashing that blocks the gap between the roof and your chimney
• Damaged chimney cap that allows rain and possibly small animals to enter your flue
• Cracks in the concrete chimney crown, which protects the interior chimney and the masonry below

Every chimney is unique, and no two show the exact same early damage signs.
