Our Services

In Orinda Village, a good chimney inspection is the first step to keeping your home safe and warm. We look for creosote buildup, which can ignite and cause a house fire if left unchecked. Blocked flues and poor draft are also checked, because they force smoke back into your living space and can choke your furnace. Our crew spots cracked or loose bricks before they turn into costly repairs or dangerous collapses. Pricing is transparent – a flat rate that covers the camera survey, soot removal test, and a written report. You can schedule the visit online or by calling (888) 295-7280, and we’ll be at your door on the day you need. The job typically takes an hour, and you’ll leave with a clear picture of what, if anything, needs fixing.

We check every inch of your chimney for creosote buildup and cracked bricks. A dirty flue can start a fire, so we clean it right away. We look for blocked sections that stop proper draft. If smoke backs into the house, we spot it before it becomes a problem. Our crew knows how to keep your chimney safe.
