Full chimney Inspections
Chimney Experts Cleaning & Repair provides chimney inspection in New York to assess chimney condition, identify visible concerns and explain maintenance needs. The inspection approach depends on the appliance, chimney configuration and reason for the assessment.
A chimney flue inspection checks accessible areas for deterioration, deposits and obstructions. Where appropriate, chimney video inspection provides a closer view of internal surfaces that cannot be clearly seen from the fireplace opening.
Smoke testing may also be used as part of an appropriate professional assessment to investigate draft or suspected leakage. Our team explains which checks are suitable for your chimney.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a chimney inspection include?
The scope depends on the chimney, appliance and reason for inspection. It may include checks of accessible masonry, the cap, crown, flashing, firebox and flue. Our team explains the agreed scope and any access limitations.
What is a chimney video inspection?
A camera is used to view internal chimney surfaces that may be difficult to examine directly. It can help document visible deposits, obstructions or deterioration, depending on access and conditions.
Is chimney video inspection included in every appointment?
The inspection method depends on the service booked and the chimney’s condition. Mention that you need video inspection when contacting us so we can discuss the appropriate scope.
Is a smoke test the same as a chimney flue inspection?
No. A smoke test observes smoke movement to investigate venting concerns. A flue inspection examines the condition of accessible internal surfaces and may use camera equipment where appropriate.
Does an inspection include chimney cleaning?
Inspection and cleaning are different services. Cleaning may be recommended based on the findings, so confirm whether you need both when arranging an appointment.
