Chimney Inspection Report

Level I or Level II chimney inspection documenting flue condition, firebox integrity, clearances, and safety findings per NFPA 211.

What's Inside

What a chimney inspection report covers

A chimney inspection report documents flue condition, firebox integrity, chimney structure, and safety findings per NFPA 211 standards. Level II inspections include camera footage findings that reveal cracks, gaps, and deterioration invisible from the exterior. For chimney sweeps, this report transforms a service visit into a professional assessment that homeowners, real estate agents, and insurance companies take seriously.

Sample Output

What the AI generates

You speak your observations in plain language. ReportWalk transforms them into professional findings with proper terminology, measurements, and recommendations. Here are examples from a chimney inspection report:

Flue liner: Clay tile, 8x12 nominal — Level II camera inspection reveals cracked tiles at 12 and 18 feet from base, gaps between tile sections exceed 1/4"

Chimney crown: Concrete crown shows multiple cracks radiating from flue opening — no drip edge present, water infiltration accelerating masonry deterioration

Firebox: Refractory panels cracked on rear wall and left side — gaps exceed 1/4", mortar joints eroded, repair or replacement needed before use

Creosote buildup: Stage 2 glazed creosote approximately 1/4" thick in smoke chamber — requires chemical treatment before mechanical sweeping

Clearance violation: Combustible framing in attic within 1" of chimney masonry — NFPA 211 requires 2" minimum, fire stop missing at floor penetration

Real examples of AI-generated findings from voice input. Your report will use your observations, your photos, your professional judgment — just without the typing.
