Whether you're selling your home, buying a property, or simply ensuring your fireplace system is safe, a chimney certification in New Jersey provides the peace of mind and paperwork you need. Our certified chimney professionals conduct detailed inspections and issue documentation that meets local real estate, insurance, and safety standards. We serve homeowners, realtors, and property managers throughout New Jersey with fast, accurate service and honest assessments.

What Is a Chimney Certification?

A chimney certification is an official document issued after a comprehensive inspection verifies that the chimney and venting system are safe and up to code. It confirms the chimney is free from damage, blockages, and other issues that could cause safety hazards or code violations. This certification is often required during home sales, property transfers, or when applying for permits.

In New Jersey, chimney certifications are typically required:

  • Before listing or closing on a home

  • As part of municipal resale inspections

  • Following major chimney repairs or rebuilds

  • For multi-family or rental properties

When requested by insurance companies

Great service!!! Highly recommended them. Flori was very professional and did a great job. I called them on a Tuesday, said they would come over the next day to give an estimate. They showed up exactly when they said they would. Emailed me an estimate and did the job exactly when they said they would. I’m going to use them for a roofing job next.

Our Chimney Certification Process

Our process is thorough, efficient, and fully compliant with New Jersey’s safety and building regulations. Here’s how it works:

  1. Visual & Internal Inspection – We examine the chimney structure, firebox, flue liner, cap, damper, and venting components.

  2. Video Scan (if needed) – For interior conditions that can’t be verified visually, we conduct a camera inspection.

  3. Code & Safety Review – We verify that the system meets local codes and manufacturer guidelines.

  4. Written Report – We issue a detailed certification document noting the condition and compliance status.

Repair Recommendations – If your chimney doesn’t pass, we outline what needs to be fixed to bring it up to standard.

Why Chimney Certification Matters in New Jersey

In real estate transactions, chimney certifications help buyers feel confident that the home’s fireplace and heating systems are safe and reliable. For sellers, it can prevent delays or last-minute negotiations. Beyond real estate, chimney certification protects you from liability in rental or multi-unit properties and helps ensure your home insurance remains valid.

New Jersey’s older housing stock and varied weather conditions mean chimney wear and damage are common. Certification ensures that your chimney is not just functional, but truly safe and efficient for long-term use.

What Happens If a Chimney Fails Certification?

If your chimney doesn’t meet certification standards, don’t worry our team will walk you through what’s needed to bring it up to code. This may include cleaning, relining, repointing, or minor repairs. Once the issues are addressed, we re-inspect and, if everything checks out, issue your certification promptly.

We never upsell or exaggerate the problem our goal is to make sure your system is safe, certified, and fully documented.
