A Level 1 inspection is the standard safety check every Boston home needs annually. We examine the flue, firebox, damper, and accessible portions of the chimney from the roof and ground using specialized cameras. This catches creosote buildup, cracks, or blockages that could spark a chimney fire or let carbon monoxide seep into your living room. Boston’s older brick chimneys often hide hidden damage from decades of use—this inspection spots it before it becomes an emergency. We provide a full report with photos so you can see exactly what we found and what repairs are needed. No surprises, just safety.
Request this service →Required when you buy or sell a Boston home, or after a chimney fire, earthquake, or major storm. We use a chimney-scope camera to inspect the entire flue, including hard-to-reach bends and offsets. This isn’t just a quick look—it’s a full diagnostic that reveals hidden cracks, deterioration, or obstructions that could fail during your first winter fire. Boston’s freeze-thaw cycles weaken masonry over time; a Level 2 inspection catches that damage before it leads to a dangerous collapse or gas leak. We email your detailed report within 24 hours.
Request this service →Creosote is the black, tar-like residue that coats your flue after wood burns. It’s highly flammable and the leading cause of chimney fires in Boston. Our high-powered vacuums and rotary brushes remove every ounce of buildup, even in hard-to-reach areas. We don’t cut corners—we clean until the flue is clear and safe. This isn’t just about passing inspection; it’s about protecting your home and family from a fire that could start while you sleep. We also check for animal nests or debris that could block airflow and increase carbon monoxide risk.
Request this service →A chimney cap is your first line of defense against Boston’s rain, snow, and wind. Without one, water seeps into the flue, eroding mortar and brick from the inside out. Over time, this leads to costly repairs and even chimney collapse. Our stainless-steel caps fit snugly, resist rust, and include a mesh screen to block squirrels, raccoons, and birds. Installation takes under an hour, and we guarantee a leak-proof seal. Protect your chimney—and your wallet—with a cap that lasts decades.
Request this service →Boston’s historic homes often have chimneys built with lime mortar that deteriorates faster than modern cement. We diagnose cracks, loose bricks, and crumbling joints, then repair or rebuild using historically accurate materials. Our repointing process removes old, damaged mortar and replaces it with a durable, weather-resistant mix that matches your home’s original style. We also reinforce flashing and crowns to prevent water intrusion. This isn’t just cosmetic—it’s structural safety that prevents chimney collapse and gas leaks.
Request this service →Carbon monoxide is odorless, colorless, and deadly. A blocked or cracked flue can leak this silent killer into your home, especially in older Boston homes with poor ventilation. We perform a full CO test during every inspection and install UL-listed detectors in key areas if yours are outdated or missing. Our detectors include digital readouts and 10-year sealed batteries, so you’ll know immediately if levels rise. This isn’t optional—it’s a life-saving upgrade every Boston family needs.
