Level 2 Chimney Inspection
Full video-scan inspection for home sales, chimney fires, insurance claims and relining — the report Maryland transactions run on.
About this serviceFrom the outside, a Deale chimney is brick and a cap. Inside, it is a heat-and-exhaust system that ages with every fire — and it ages fastest when nobody checks it. The housing here — waterman’s cottages and waterfront homes on Rockhold Creek — sets the chimney workload in Deale. The drive from our Beltsville shop is routine for our crews; Deale addresses batch with the rest of the Anne Arundel County run.
Deale is about 26 miles from our Beltsville headquarters — typically a 60-minute drive in normal traffic. If your Deale address carries one of these ZIPs — 20751 — the ZIP checker on our homepage will route you straight back to this page. Every visit is documented with photos before and after, and the findings are written up the same day.

Between Chesapeake humidity, driving rain and freeze-thaw winters, Deale chimneys fight water on every face: crowns crack at the wash, flashing tires where it meets the roofline, and porous brick drinks storm after storm. The stains show up inside — a ceiling spot two rooms away, a rusted damper, a musty firebox. We trace leaks to their actual entry point before recommending anything, because sealing the wrong joint just moves the water. Insurance files and home-sale paperwork both go smoother with that photo record attached. Our written report separates what is urgent from what can wait a season.
The visit is also a chance to ask anything — burning habits, wood storage, damper quirks. Our sweeps would rather teach for five minutes than return for a preventable problem.

When tiles crack, the durable answer is an insulated stainless liner sized to the appliance — scanned before, scanned after, warranted in writing.
Humane removal and a clear-flue scan afterwards — then a cap so Deale critters cannot re-book the flue.
A measured, fastened stainless cap is the end of birds, raccoons and rain in Deale flues — fitted same-visit in most cases.
Fall in Deale means the phone rings off the hook — every cold morning books out the week. The households that swept in September watch the rush from beside a working fireplace.
Mid-winter in Deale is no time to discover a blocked flue. Burn dry, seasoned hardwood, keep the damper routine consistent, and call at the first sign of smoke spilling into the room.
After the burning season, Deale chimneys get their report card — soot load, water entry, mortar wear. Spring findings drive the summer repair list across Anne Arundel County.
Summer is the cheapest chimney season in Deale: masonry cures properly in the warmth, relining and crown work book faster, and nobody is racing a cold house.
