CHIMNEY SURVEYS
If you suspect an internal problem in your chimney, this can be surveyed.
We use state of the art CCTV technology comprising a Wohler Vis 2000 camera with a pan tilting head. This provides a colour image of all areas of the chimney or flue liner. Distance indicators allow exact locating of any problem or damaged areas enabling precise external entry into the chimney to correct the problem.
There is no need to provide scaffolding or other roof access; providing the appliance is correctly installed the camera can be inserted through the appliance.
The survey will be followed by a written report, detailing internal construction, problem areas that are showing damage or collapsed feathers.
If the property is thatched then the condition of the flue relevant to Building Regulations will be itemised which is useful for ongoing or future reference.
Prior to the survey it is highly recommended that the chimney is swept so that the stucture is visible. This can be included with the survey.
