Chimney Inspection, Nassau CountyYour Local Chimney Inspection Specialists in Nassau County, NY
Recent Census estimates show about 33% of Nassau County's housing units were built in the 1950s alone, and many of those chimneys have seen several boilers come and go. Each swap can leave the flue mismatched to the appliance. A yearly inspection, which NFPA 211 recommends, catches problems like a cracked flue tile, a failing crown or loose flashing while they are still small. Our local crew checks the chimney from roof to boiler and also looks at where it passes through living space, which matters in many Nassau homes.

Chimney Inspection for Nassau County Homes
After World War II, Elmont filled with suburban tract homes, many in versions of the Cape Cod style with a brick-veneer first story. Many Cape Cods had their attics finished into bedrooms years later, so we check the gap between the chimney and the wood framing wherever it passes through that space.
After the war, split-level and ranch-style homes filled the far eastern, northern and western parts of Garden City. Those chimneys were built for the heating systems of their day, and an inspection checks whether the flue still fits what is running now.
We inspect chimneys in Elmont, Garden City, Valley Stream, Hempstead and Great Neck.
