You’ll get a clear explanation of what we found, what it means for your safety, and what actions make sense based on your situation. No pressure, no inflated urgency—just honest assessment from people who’ve been doing this work for decades.

Complete Fireplace Chimney Services Chepachet

More Than Just Looking Around

Your chimney inspection includes a thorough evaluation of the entire system, not just a quick look up the flue. We examine structural components, safety features, ventilation adequacy, and code compliance issues that affect your home’s safety.

We also handle fireplace restoration, stove installations for wood, pellet, and gas systems, and have a retail stove operation for complete fireplace solutions. If we find issues during inspection, we can address them properly instead of just handing you a list of problems to figure out elsewhere.

Rhode Island’s older homes often have unique chimney configurations that require experienced eyes. We understand how these systems were built, how they age, and what modifications work safely in existing structures. That knowledge makes the difference between a useful inspection and just checking boxes.

How often should I have my chimney inspected in Rhode Island?

The National Fire Protection Association recommends annual chimney inspections, and that’s especially important in Rhode Island where we use our heating systems heavily during long winters. Even if you don’t use your fireplace regularly, animals, weather, and settling can create problems that only show up during professional inspection. If you burn wood frequently, you might need more frequent cleaning along with your annual inspection. The key is catching small issues before they become expensive repairs or safety hazards.
Inspection focuses on safety and structural condition—we’re looking for damage, wear, code violations, or anything that could cause problems. Cleaning removes creosote buildup, debris, and obstructions that affect proper operation. You might need one without the other, or both together depending on your situation. A proper inspection will tell you whether cleaning is necessary and identify any issues that cleaning alone won’t fix. Think of inspection as diagnosis and cleaning as maintenance.
We provide free estimates because every situation is different and we want you to know exactly what you’re paying for before any work begins. Inspection costs depend on your chimney type, accessibility, and what level of inspection is needed based on the age and condition of your system. We offer in-house financing for larger projects if repairs are needed. The investment in professional inspection is small compared to the cost of fire damage or major structural repairs from undetected problems.
We’ll explain exactly what we found, why it matters for your safety, and what options you have for addressing it. Not every issue requires immediate action—some problems can wait while others need prompt attention. We’ll be honest about timing and priorities so you can make informed decisions. Since we handle repairs and installations in-house, we can often address problems immediately if you choose, or provide detailed information if you want to think it over or get additional opinions.
Yes, we work with traditional masonry chimneys, prefab systems, wood stoves, pellet stoves, and gas fireplaces.
