This service provides a comprehensive internal inspection of chimney flues using high-resolution CCTV technology to identify blockages, damage, and other issues affecting chimney performance and safety.
Initial access to the chimney and flue system is confirmed, ensuring safe entry points for inspection equipment. Relevant information about the chimney type, fuel system, and previous maintenance is reviewed to inform the inspection approach.
A visual inspection of the chimney exterior and accessible internal components is conducted to assess the general condition and identify any visible defects or hazards prior to the CCTV inspection.
The CCTV equipment is prepared and calibrated to ensure optimal image quality. Safety measures are implemented to protect the property and personnel during the inspection process.
The high-resolution CCTV camera is inserted into the chimney flue to conduct a thorough internal inspection. The footage is used to identify blockages, cracks, damage, and evidence of nesting or other obstructions.
Following the inspection, checks are made regarding the flue’s ventilation and smoke passage capabilities. Any limitations or concerns related to smoke flow or ventilation are noted.
A detailed report is compiled summarising the inspection findings, including any defects or maintenance recommendations. The report highlights any limitations of the inspection and advises on the need for qualified professionals for regulated work such as repairs or installations.
