Why It's Beneficial To Have Chimney Inspections

Your chimney might look good from the outside, but you might not know what issues are lurking inside that need to be repaired. At John Budd’s Chimney Service, LLC, we can offer you the peace of mind you are looking for when it comes to your chimney. We make sure it is functioning properly to prevent further problems. A chimney inspection is important for many reasons including:

Finding masonry cracks - Over time, heat and the weather can deteriorate the masonry work in your chimney which may cause cracks. A chimney inspection can find these cracks and give you a better understanding of how your masonry is holding up.

Preventing house fires - As wood burns, creosotes accumulated and could lead to a chimney fire if it is not removed. Birds and other animals may build nests in the chimney which could cause fires if not removed. An inspection can help prevent these from happening.

Preventing water damage - Water damage can result in very costly repairs. An inspection will offer you the peace of mind that your chimney flue cap is working properly and not allowing water in.

If you cannot remember when the last time you had your chimney or chimney caps inspected, it might be a good idea to have it looked at to prevent fires and other problems. Contact our team today to get started.
