I Need My Chimney Evaluated

Whether you are experiencing problems with your existing fireplace and chimney system or considering a new project, you need a company with the technical knowledge and delivery capabilities adequate to the challenge.

• Chimney Flue Liners
• Installation of rain caps and spark arrestors
• Waterproofing
• Brick and mortar work
• New fireplace construction
• Solving smoking problems
• Installation of EPA-approved fireplaces and stoves
• Dampers

The process begins with a thorough system evaluation. Our Certified Technician performs a 15 to 25 point inspection of all visible components of the system and if required, conducts an internal scan of the chimney flue utilizing a state-of-the-art Chim-Scan™ camera, especially under conditions where a visual inspection alone, cannot detect cracks, fissures or voids in the flue liner.

The evaluation is documented in a comprehensive report that includes a Summary Diagnostic reporting areas of concern, supported by digital pictures as seen here, and providing a firm price bid on the recommended repairs and/or upgrade.

Evaluation reports are sent within 48 hours of the appointment date and can be faxed, mailed and/or e-mailed.

To schedule your chimney evaluation, call us at (415) 383-8227 or email us directly at service@londonchimney.com

London’s diagnostic and imaging capabilities, both by means of its state-of-the art scanning equipment and digital cameras, provide homeowners, agents or contractors with an objective evaluation of any system.

Most chimney fires occur because of pre-existing cracks in the liner system. Our advanced internal chimney viewing equipment allows us to spot cracks and missing mortar between the liner joints as seen in the pictures above.

All masonry chimney construction materials will suffer accelerated deterioration as a result of prolonged contact with water. A chimney with no cap and not waterproofed will eventually lead to significant damage to the chimney crown, cracks in the firebox, rusted metal parts such as the damper and deterioration of the liner mortar joints.
