Getting JCS Home Services technicians to perform an annual inspection and cleaning of the chimneys of your Charles Town WV home is the high-value choice because of all we do in the process.
First, any time we’re about to sweep a chimney, we’ll want to inspect it.
A Level One inspection – which is a complimentary service of JCS with any chimney sweeping job – is a visual inspection in which our techs take a careful look at all the parts of your fireplace and chimney that we can see: the hearth, ash pit, lintel, firebox, throat, cap, crown, smoke chamber, chase tops and chimney flue.
Using an experienced eye and a bright flashlight, we check for cracks in the masonry, improperly closing vents, and other signs of potential concerns. This visual inspection is a proactive way to identify maintenance needs before they deteriorate into safety concerns and costly repairs.
For an additional cost, the JCS chimney technicians can perform advanced Level Two inspections, using auger-mounted video equipment to closely examine portions of the chimney structure inaccessible to the flashlight and eyes of the chimney sweep. This level of inspection can detect gaps and cracks that might not otherwise be discovered. The JCS chimney tech will then produce a written report describing the findings and making recommendations.
If you haven’t had your chimney inspected in a couple of years or more, consider a Level Two chimney inspection.
Not all chimneys are exactly alike. Depending upon the construction of your chimney and the layout of your home’s property, the JCS chimney sweeps may need to adjust our so-called angle-of-attack – i.e., from the inside or from the outside – in order to get your chimney swept out and completely cleaned of creosote and soot.
What’s more, our knowledgeable techs will inspect and sweep your chimney, fireplace, and wood stove without tracking soot and dirt and grime into your Charles Town home.
A chimney is just like any other equipment: It needs to be maintained in order to work right. And you don’t want to be around a chimney that’s not working right.
There’s good reason why experts recommend any building with a chimney and fireplace installation get inspected about every 12 months, especially prior to the active winter season: Because the burning of wood inherently gives rise to the production of creosote, which then gets deposited as a tarry substance caking on the surfaces of the chimney apparatus. Creosote is highly flammable and therefore presents a clear and present risk for a chimney fire which can spread to the rest of the house.
In addition, a clean chimney is an efficient chimney. Sweep your chimney out every year to enjoy the warm glow of a fire in the fireplace without worrying that the smoke will back up into your house.
Efficiency, safety, and peace-of-mind comes with regular chimney inspections and sweeping.
