What a Chimney Camera Inspection in Philadelphia Can Show
A video inspection gives us a view inside the flue that a look from the fireplace opening cannot provide. It can help clarify what is going on before you decide whether cleaning, repair, or another service is needed.
Smoke or odor from the fireplace
A camera view can help check the flue interior for visible buildup or an obstruction when smoke does not seem to move up the chimney as expected.
A chimney inspection needs a closer look
When a standard visual check leaves questions about the interior, a camera can help us examine areas that are not visible from the opening.
You are planning chimney work
Seeing the flue can help identify visible conditions to consider before chimney repair, liner work, or other service. A camera inspection does not itself make repairs.
You suspect buildup or a blockage
A camera can show visible deposits and obstructions inside the flue, helping distinguish an inspection concern from a need for cleaning or further evaluation.
You want to check a chimney after a concern
After smoke problems or a suspected interior issue, a video inspection can give us a closer look at the accessible flue surfaces and visible changes.
What Our Philadelphia Chimney Video Inspection Covers
The inspection focuses on viewing the chimney interior with a camera and reporting what is visible. A camera view helps assess the flue, but it does not replace cleaning or repair when those services are needed.
- Camera view of the flue — We use a camera to examine accessible interior sections and look for visible conditions that may not show from the fireplace opening.
- Visible buildup — We check for deposits on the surfaces the camera can view. When cleaning is appropriate, we can also handle chimney sweep service.
- Visible obstructions — We look for objects or blockages within the camera’s view that could affect the open path through the flue.
- Visible damage or changes — We note cracks, gaps, or other visible irregularities that may need closer evaluation or repair.
- Findings and next service steps — We explain what the camera shows and whether cleaning or a separate repair is relevant. For a repair concern, see our chimney repair service.
- A quote for the requested work — The camera inspection is separate from any cleaning or repair. The price for additional work depends on the service and the chimney’s condition.

How We Carry Out a Chimney Camera Inspection
We come to your property; you do not need to bring the fireplace or chimney to us. Before the visit, make the fireplace area accessible and tell us what you have noticed, such as smoke, odors, or a suspected blockage.
- Book the inspection — Call to request a quote and book. Tell us what prompted the inspection and whether you are asking about a fireplace or another chimney appliance.
- Prepare the fireplace area — Move items away from the fireplace opening so we can access it. Share any recent symptoms or changes; that information helps us focus the inspection.
- Examine the flue with a camera — We position the camera to view accessible interior sections and check the image for visible buildup, obstructions, or damage. What can be seen depends on access and the chimney’s layout.
- Review the findings — We explain what appeared in the camera view and identify whether a separate cleaning or repair service may be relevant. Visit our Philadelphia chimney sweep page for the broader range of chimney services.
What Affects Chimney Camera Inspection Cost
The listed starting prices cover chimney cleaning, from $89, and chimney inspection, from $39; there is no separate video-inspection price listed. The cost of a camera inspection depends on the chimney’s access, layout, and the scope of the requested inspection. A quote can clarify the price for your specific chimney before work begins.
If the camera shows a concern that calls for cleaning or repair, that additional work has its own price. The listed starting price for chimney repair is not specified; the final cost depends on the repair required and the condition of the chimney. Tell us what you have observed when you request a quote so we can account for the service you need.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a chimney camera inspection cost?
There is no separate video-inspection starting price listed. The quote depends on access, chimney layout, and the scope of the inspection; cleaning or repairs, if needed, are separate services with their own costs.
What happens during a chimney inspection with a camera?
We use a camera to view accessible sections inside the flue and check for visible buildup, obstructions, or damage. We then explain what the view shows and whether a separate service may be relevant.
What does a CCTV chimney inspection show?
A CCTV chimney inspection provides a camera view of accessible flue surfaces, which can reveal visible deposits, blockages, or irregularities. What appears in the view depends on access and the chimney’s configuration.
Does a camera inspection include chimney cleaning?
No. A camera inspection checks the interior and reports visible findings; cleaning is a separate service. If the inspection points to buildup that needs attention, we can provide chimney cleaning from $89.
How long does a chimney camera inspection take?
The visit length depends on access to the chimney, its layout, and how much of the interior can be viewed. We can set expectations when you book after learning about your setup.
