Chimney Inspection Services Twin Cities
A Thorough Look at the Whole System
Most homeowners don’t think about the chimney until something goes wrong. Our chimney inspection services cover the full system from the firebox up to the crown. We check for creosote buildup (a tar-like residue from burning wood that can catch fire if it accumulates), cracked or missing mortar joints, gaps in the liner, and anything else that could affect how safely and efficiently your fireplace runs.
Every finding is documented with photos so you know exactly what we found. Older homes throughout the Twin Cities metro often have original clay tile liners that wear down over decades of freeze-thaw cycles. Schedule your inspection and we’ll walk you through everything we see, in plain language.

What You Get Out of an Annual Inspection

What Happens During the Visit
Scheduling a chimney inspection is straightforward, and the visit itself doesn’t take long. We ask that you avoid burning for 48 hours before we arrive so the flue is cool and the ash has settled. On the day of the visit, we inspect the exterior masonry and crown, then move inside to check the firebox, smoke chamber, and damper.
The ChimScan camera runs through the full length of the liner and records what it finds. We vacuum out creosote and ash with a HEPA-filtered vacuum so nothing ends up on your floors. Minnesota’s cold winters can cause mortar to crack as it contracts and expands with temperature swings, which is one more reason an annual look matters here. Book a visit before the heating season starts and you’ll know your fireplace is ready to go.

Documentation You Can Actually Use
Some inspection companies hand you a verbal summary at the door and drive away. Suburban Chimney Solutions documents every inspection in writing, with photos from the ChimScan camera so you can see the condition of your liner yourself. If there’s something that needs repair, we explain what it is, why it matters, and what fixing it involves.
No pressure, no upsell tactics. Just the facts about what we found. Twin Cities homeowners selling a home or refinancing often need this kind of written documentation to satisfy a buyer’s inspection contingency. Reach out to schedule chimney inspection services and leave with paperwork you can actually keep.
