About This Service
Do not diagnose by odor alone
An odor can be associated with deposits, moisture or another condition, and the description alone cannot identify the source. Tell us when you notice it and whether use or weather changes the symptom. We assess the concern before recommending the corresponding work.
Give each fireplace its own identity
Where a property has several fireplaces, identify which one has the concern. Equipment, prior repairs and maintenance history can differ. Findings about one system should not be silently applied to a second unit simply because both are at the same address.
Look at repair materials in context
A patch, coating or replaced component may be relevant to the current condition. If you know when earlier work took place, tell us. The assessment considers the materials and adjacent areas before recommending another surface treatment or assuming the old repair solved the underlying concern.
Separate Assessment Consent From Repairs
Permission to inspect does not define every repair that might later be recommended. Twin explains a proposed paid task and price before it is accepted. This is especially relevant when the person opening the property is different from the owner or manager authorized to approve work.
