Chimney Camera Inpection (CCTV)
A cctv camera inspection of a flue will detect the existence of many hidden chimney problems. Problems that could cause harmful gases/smoke into your home. We look for blockages caused by animal nests, fallen debris, collapsed mid feathers, restriction caused by bends or other objects breaching the flue.
A cctv chimney inspection is often required by insurance companies if you’re looking to recover the cost of chimney repairs. For example many insurance companies demand a cctv survey be carried out as first step days to any insurance claim. We provide a full written report outlining our findings, problems discovered and the appropriate solutions, including costs
