Our Services

A good chimney inspection in Coto de Caza starts with a quick look at the flue, the firebox and the mortar to catch creosote buildup before it turns into a fire hazard. We check for blocked flues, cracked bricks, loose mortar and any signs of poor draft that can push smoke back into your living space. The crew measures thickness of creosote, inspects the chimney cap and makes sure the vent is clear so you won’t smell smoke in the kitchen. Pricing is flat-rate and shown up front so you know exactly what you’ll pay, no surprise fees. Scheduling is easy – just give us a call and we’ll fit you in, often the same week, and you’ll have a clean, safe chimney ready for the next fire season.
