Chimney inspection in Stratford
A chimney in Stratford works hardest in the coldest months, which is exactly when nobody wants to find out it is unsafe. A camera inspection now costs nothing and settles the question before the first fire.
Housing stock in Stratford runs from century masonry to new-build direct-vent gas, so we bring both a rotary set and a gas analyser to every inspection rather than guessing on the phone.
What we find most often in Stratford
- Missing, rusted, or undersized rain caps
- Deteriorated firebox mortar and refractory panels
- Failed step and counter flashing at the roof line
- Efflorescence and damp patches on the chimney breast
- Damper seized open, bleeding heat all winter
- Stage 2 or 3 creosote glazing in wood-burning flues

What Stratford homeowners say
Punctual, professional, and walked me through every step. The report came the same afternoon with clear photos of the crown cracks they found. No pressure to book the repair.
Previous company swept and said everything was fine. Diamond ran a camera and showed me a cracked liner tile on screen. Glad I got the second opinion.
Recorded the whole flue on video for the buyer's agent. The chimney line item stopped being a negotiation point the same day.
Family of raccoons in the flue. They removed them humanely, cleaned everything, and fitted a stainless guard that has kept them out since.
Free chimney inspection in Stratford: FAQs
Is the chimney inspection in Stratford really free?
Yes. A WETT-certified technician attends your Stratford home, runs the 21-point safety check, and emails a written report with photos at no charge. There is no call-out fee and no obligation to book any repair.
How much does a chimney sweep cost in Stratford?
A standard single-flue sweep with a Level 1 inspection runs about $190 to $280 in Stratford. A Level 2 camera inspection for a sale, an insurer, or after a flue fire runs $250 to $380. Any extras are confirmed in writing before work starts.
How soon can you attend in Stratford?
Most Stratford bookings are attended within two to four business days, and smoke, carbon monoxide, or post-fire calls are dispatched same day. We call you back within 60 minutes during business hours.
How often should a Stratford chimney be swept?
Once a year for any wood-burning appliance, and once a year for gas as a venting and carbon monoxide check. If you burn most evenings through a Stratford winter, mid-season is worth a second look at the flue.
What does the free inspection actually include?
A full camera scan of the flue, creosote grading, crown, cap, flashing and chase inspection, damper and firebox check, a carbon monoxide draft test, and a dated written report with photos you can send to an insurer or a buyer's agent.
Do I have to book a repair afterwards?
No. You keep the report either way. If we find something, we quote it in writing and you decide in your own time. The $50 coupon is valid for 30 days on any chimney repair of $199 or more.
