Chimney Inspection, Ocean CountyOcean County, NJ Chimney Inspection by Your Local Crew
Along the Ocean County shore, a chimney inspection is not only a once-a-year habit. A hurricane or hard coastal storm can loosen a cap, crack a crown or lift flashing, and none of that is easy to see from the driveway. We inspect the chimney from the cap down to the firebox and heating connection, check salt-worn metal, and look at the masonry for water damage. If something needs work, you get a clear explanation and a written estimate, and nothing is booked until you say so.

Chimney Inspection for Ocean County Homes
The 2012 surge from Sandy gave low parts of Toms River, including Silverton and the downtown, their worst flooding ever. NFPA 211 calls for an inspection after any event that may have damaged a chimney, and a flood that reaches the base or cleanout qualifies.
August 2011, the month Hurricane Irene reached the New Jersey coast, set Ocean County's record for monthly rain at 15.67 inches. After a storm like that, an inspection checks whether water got into the crown, flue or masonry before freezing weather arrives.
We inspect chimneys in Toms River, Brick, Point Pleasant, Lakewood and Jackson.
