Licensed, CSIA-certified technicians providing expert chimney inspection to homeowners across the City of Los Angeles and its many neighborhoods.
A Level I chimney inspection in Los Angeles costs $49 and takes about 30 minutes, covering the firebox, damper, smoke chamber, and accessible flue. If you are selling a home, changing fuel type, or recovering from a chimney fire, you need a Level II inspection instead, which adds a video scan of the interior flue and runs 60 to 90 minutes. The City of Los Angeles covers 469 square miles and contains virtually every type of residential construction found in California. Each neighborhood has distinct characteristics that affect chimney and fireplace maintenance needs. Skipping the inspection before a real estate closing is the most common way hidden chimney damage becomes a buyer's negotiating point instead of a planned repair. You get the written report with photos within 24 hours either way.
We are a local, licensed, and insured contractor with deep knowledge of the City of Los Angeles and its many neighborhoods. Our technicians understand the unique needs of every architectural style from Victorian and Craftsman to ultra-modern new construction and the specific building code requirements for each municipality. Every job starts with a thorough assessment, includes a written estimate with photos, and ends with a clean jobsite. We arrive on time, communicate clearly, and stand behind our work with a written guarantee.
A Level I inspection is $49 and covers the accessible chimney and flue for routine, once-a-year upkeep. Level II adds a video scan of the interior flue and is the one lenders and insurers ask for during a home sale, after a fuel change, or following a chimney fire or seismic event. Level III is reserved for cases where a Level II scan finds hidden damage that can only be reached by opening a wall or chase cover.
We examine the firebox, damper, smoke chamber, and every accessible section of flue for creosote, cracks, and blockages, adding a camera scan for Level II. Skipping this step means a cracked flue liner or a deteriorated crown can go unnoticed until it becomes a repair. Every finding is photographed, and you get the written report with condition ratings within 24 hours.
