Technician Art recently performed a video chimney inspection on West Foster Avenue in Chicago. This service is an excellent diagnostic tool to assess the condition of the flue and internal chimney structure—especially for homeowners experiencing performance issues or preparing for major repairs.

Unlike a standard visual check, a video inspection allows us to get a detailed, real-time look at the flue interior using specialized camera equipment. This helps spot cracks, blockages, water damage, and hidden buildup that could compromise your safety.

During this inspection, Technician Art identified minor creosote accumulation and recommended routine sweeping before heavy seasonal use. The customer appreciated having visual confirmation of the chimney’s condition and a plan for proactive maintenance.

Video chimney inspections are essential in real estate transactions, after a flue fire, or when switching appliances. They give you the full picture—literally.
