We can give you a clear, no-obligation quote after a quick inspection. It's always best to get a professional assessment for an accurate estimate.

Is chimney repair covered under homeowners insurance?

Sometimes, chimney repair can be covered by homeowners insurance, especially if the damage resulted from a covered event like a fire or storm. However, standard wear and tear or neglect usually aren't covered. It’s a good idea to check your specific policy details for Santa Rosa. We can often provide documentation to help you with your insurance claim if applicable.

What is the 3 to 10 rule for chimneys?

The '3 to 10' rule is a safety guideline for chimneys. It suggests that the chimney should extend at least three feet above the highest point of the roof where it passes through. It should also be at least two feet taller than any part of the house within a ten-foot radius. This helps prevent fire hazards and ensures proper drafting. Adhering to this rule is crucial for chimney safety in Santa Rosa.

Can a handyman repair a chimney?

How much does it typically cost to repair a chimney?
