A standard Level 1 inspection ($89) is the right starting point for first use after a long disuse period. Level 2 is specifically for property transfers and post-event situations (chimney fire, earthquake, lightning), not routine first-use.

Yes. Re-clean rescue is a recurring pattern: a prior company swept fast, skipped the smoke chamber, and left the dangerous part of the flue untouched. We re-inspect with a camera, document with photos, re-sweep with HEPA-contained equipment, and give you an itemized scope and before/after media.

Yes. Bring the other estimate or describe the scope and the $89 inspection gets you our independent assessment.

Documentation. We provide before/after photos at the firebox and cap level and, on request, a full in-flue camera pass you can keep. You get an itemized scope listing each part of the system we touched.

We photograph it, show you, and quote the deep-sweep tier needed to remove it before it becomes a chimney-fire risk. Most heavy-creosote re-cleans are handled on a single visit.
