Whether you are preparing for winter or buying or selling a home, our certified chimney inspectors deliver detailed, trustworthy evaluations that help protect your home and family.
Creosote buildup, cracked flue liners, and airflow issues can lead to chimney fires and carbon monoxide entering your living space. Our inspections help identify and correct issues before they become dangerous. Safety and prevention are always our priority.
If you are buying or selling a home in the Shenandoah Valley, a certified chimney inspection is often required. We provide thorough reports and documentation trusted by agents, home inspectors, and insurance companies. Our service area includes Harrisonburg, Staunton, Waynesboro, and Lexington zip codes.
A properly maintained chimney drafts better, burns cleaner, and produces more heat. During your inspection we evaluate your flue, liner condition, and ventilation to help your system perform at its best while extending its lifespan.
The Three Main Chimney Inspection Levels
We follow nationally recognized standards for chimney inspections.
Level 1 Inspection: The standard annual inspection for fireplaces that have not changed and show no signs of damage or malfunction.
Level 2 Inspection: Required when selling or buying a home, after a chimney fire, or when changing appliances or fuel types. This includes a video camera scan of the internal flue system.
Level 3 Inspection: A detailed inspection for serious safety concerns or known damage. This may require accessing concealed areas of the chimney or structure to fully evaluate internal conditions.
When you schedule a chimney inspection with Flue Pros Chimney, you can expect:
1. A thorough visual inspection of the chimney exterior, firebox, flue, and chimney cap
2. Evaluation of the chimney liner, crown, damper, and venting
3. A video camera scan when needed
4. Assessment for creosote buildup and structural issues
5. Photo documentation and a clear written inspection report
6. Honest recommendations for cleaning, repairs, or maintenance if needed
We provide clear communication throughout the process so you always understand our findings and the next steps.

Regular chimney sweeping is the natural companion to your annual inspection. During a sweep, our techs remove creosote, soot, and debris that can block airflow and cause buildup inside your flue. A clean chimney makes inspections more accurate and helps prevent chimney fires, smoke problems, and damage.
