A chimney inspection is the foundation of safe fireplace ownership. Simmons Brothers Chimney Sweeps offers all three NFPA 211-defined levels of chimney inspection in Westminster, CO. A Level 1 inspection covers the readily accessible portions of the chimney exterior, interior, and accessible attic spaces — ideal for chimneys in continued regular service. A Level 2 inspection, which includes video scanning of the flue interior, is required any time you buy or sell a home, after a chimney fire, or following a change in fuel type or appliance. Level 3 inspections involve the removal of specific components to investigate hidden damage and are reserved for situations where a serious hazard is suspected.
Our inspection technicians use high-definition chimney cameras that travel the full length of the flue, capturing footage of liner condition, mortar joints, and any cracks or deterioration not visible to the naked eye. After the inspection, you receive a detailed written report with photos and prioritized repair recommendations. Many Westminster homeowners are surprised to discover issues like deteriorated clay tile liners, damaged smoke chambers, or compromised chimney crowns that could allow carbon monoxide or fire to enter their homes. An inspection from Simmons Brothers gives you the information you need to make smart decisions about your fireplace's safety.
