Level 1 vs. Level 2 chimney inspection explained for Pittsburgh homeowners — when the standard visual check is enough and when a camera scan is needed.
Read moreFor a wood-burning fireplace used regularly through the winter, an annual cleaning and inspection is the standard recommendation. Burning more often, or burning unseasoned wood, can mean cleaning more frequently. A yearly inspection helps you judge the right schedule for your home.
We serve Pittsburgh and communities throughout the surrounding area, including the South Hills, North Hills, the eastern and western suburbs, the Mon Valley, and parts of Washington and Westmoreland counties. If you're in the greater Pittsburgh area, there's a good chance we serve you.
Yes. A Level 2 inspection with a camera scan of the flue is the reliable way to confirm a chimney's condition before buying a home — especially important with the older housing stock across the Pittsburgh area.
Common signs include a smoky smell when the fireplace isn't in use, smoke drifting into the room when you light a fire, white staining or crumbling mortar on the masonry, pieces of brick on the roof or ground, and water stains near the chimney. Any of these is worth an inspection.
