The frequently asked question that we get the most is "What's included in your inspection?". Our inspections include a camera scan of the flue system and an exterior exam of the chimney. The camera scan checks for cracks, gaps, and obstructions inside the flue, while the exterior exam ensures that there aren't areas where water can enter and cause leaking inside the home. We provide you with a full digital report that day along with pictures of any areas of concern.

It is with a heavy heart that we must announce the tragic passing of our former employee, Jonathan Downs. Jon was more than just an employee, but also a beloved nephew, cousin, and friend. His untimely death in a motorcycle accident came as a shock to all of us, and he will be dearly missed. Please keep his children, family, and friends in your thoughts and prayers as they struggle to come to terms with this terrible loss.

"The initial cause of the fire is still under investigation, but Janik said it was only a matter of a few additional minutes before the house’s roof collapsed. He said this fire should be a reminder to all Saugatuck residents to have their fireplaces and chimneys professionally inspected for safety."
We're so glad that everyone made it out safely! Just a friendly reminder to have annual inspections before you start using your fireplaces or wood stoves!
