When the question is condition

A home purchase, an unfamiliar system, a visible defect, or a change in operation calls for clarity about inspection scope. Ask what the evaluation will and will not establish.

02 / THE HOMEOWNER PERSPECTIVE

When the question is deposits

Cleaning scope depends on the system, deposits, and access. Ask whether the inspection is included and what happens if a defect is discovered.

THE SHORT ANSWER

Inspection evaluates and documents condition within an agreed scope; cleaning removes accessible deposits and debris. You may need both. Tell the professional why you are calling and ask what the visit includes.

Your home in Tennessee.

Smoke in the room, a creosote smell, or a damper that will not move are signs to stop and inspect before the next fire. Tennessee Chimney Pros connects cleaning, inspection, and damper or liner questions, with every recommendation linked to what the inspection records.

Before accepting a bundle

Ask for the inspection scope, cleaning areas, report format, and exclusions to be written separately so you can compare proposals.
