Chimney Inspection Levels

Before we perform any of the above listed chimney services, we will complete a mandatory chimney inspection to get a clear idea of your chimney’s condition. Whether you’re a homeowner looking for annual inspections to make sure your chimney’s creosote buildup hasn’t gotten out of control or you need a chimney inspection for a potential real estate transaction, The Chimney Doctor NOVA has you covered.

The National Fire Protection Association's 211 (Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances) is the standard upon which chimney sweeps base their services. This standard classifies chimney and venting system inspections into three levels: Level I, Level II or Level III:

Level I – For easily accessible chimneys and venting systems
Level II – When a new home heating appliance has been installed, a homeowner has changed the type of fuel used for burning, there has been a sale or transfer of the property, or some kind of event or malfunction has caused damage to the chimney
Level III - When a Level I or Level II inspection suggests a hidden hazard and the evaluation cannot be performed without access to concealed areas

We can also offer chimney certifications for the sale of a property, rental agreement, or insurance purposes. We work with home buyers, home sellers, and REALTORS^® alike. Contact us to schedule an inspection and certification, and to get a free estimate.

Chimney Certifications

Are you buying, selling, or renting a home? For the sale of a property, rental agreement, or insurance purposes, we offer chimney inspections and certifications. We work with home buyers, home sellers, and REALTORS®. The inspection is pass/fail and includes recommended repairs, if needed.

This is essential information for prospective home buyers. You want to make sure the chimney is clean and in fine repair before you buy. Otherwise, you could risk your property and safety should a fire occur.

Insurance companies require chimney certifications before they’ll agree to insure your property. Be sure to hire a sweep who has certification. This professional has studied proper cleaning techniques and has demonstrated knowledge through tough tests. Such certification gives you confidence that a skilled sweep is performing your service.
