Most of a chimney's interior can't be seen from the firebox or from the roof. A video inspection sends a camera through the full length of the flue and shows its condition foot by foot — cracked tiles, open mortar joints, gaps between liner sections, buildup, obstructions.
It takes the guesswork out of the conversation. Instead of describing what might be inside the flue, we show you.
After a suspected chimney fire, when internal damage may exist without outside evidence. When there are draft or smoke problems that basic inspection hasn't explained. Before relining decisions, so the actual liner condition drives the recommendation. During real-estate transactions, where documented flue condition matters.
The camera head travels through the flue on a rod-and-reel system while we watch the feed on a monitor. We record areas of concern and review them with you, so the findings — and the reasoning behind any recommendation — are visible rather than taken on faith.
These services often go hand in hand with video inspection:
Not usually. Routine annual inspections cover most situations. The camera earns its keep when there's a specific question about the flue interior — after a fire, before relining, or when problems persist.
Yes. We review the findings with you on the monitor and document areas of concern.
No. The camera travels on flexible rods designed for chimney systems and doesn't harm the liner.
