Brown Chimney's standard Level 1 inspection is the yearly check across Dallas, and the fee is credited toward repair work booked within 30 days. A Level 2 camera inspection, with written findings, is the standard when the flue interior has to be seen rather than assumed — after a chimney fire, for a home sale, or after a fuel-type change. Our crew works out of 3838 Oak Lawn Ave, so most Dallas appointments land the same week.
Dallas inspections turn up Dallas problems. Relentless UV and summer heat bake chimney crowns until they craze and crack; the storms that roll through DFW lift flashing and drive rain into any gap they find; and the long idle season lets birds and squirrels settle into uncapped flues. Every inspection ends with the findings explained on site and a same-day repair quote if anything needs work. The full scope of each inspection level is on our chimney inspection service page, and you can price it on the inspection cost calculator.
Level 2 camera inspection after a home purchase — Dallas, TX
In Dallas, the damage is driven by sun and storms, not frost. A chimney crown takes direct Texas UV for years until the concrete crazes into a web of fine cracks; then a DFW thunderstorm drives rain straight through them. By the time a stain shows on the ceiling, water has usually been tracking in for a season or two. A proper inspection catches it while it's still a small line item.
Our techs check the firebox, damper, and smoke chamber from inside, then the crown, cap, flashing, and exterior masonry from the roof — where most Dallas water problems start. You get a clear verdict on every component, explained on site, and a separate line-item quote if anything needs work. If a nest or heavy debris turns up, a Dallas chimney cleaning clears it. And if repairs are needed, the inspection fee is credited toward repair work booked within 30 days — so the inspection pays for itself the moment anything real is found.
Our Southlake crew covers the northern DFW corridor, and together we handle the full Texas service area. See the local service list on the Dallas page.

The CSIA recommends an annual inspection for every chimney, used or not. Beyond the calendar, these are the situations that call for one now — several of them common in Dallas homes.
Real-estate transactions and post-storm situations call for a Level 2 camera inspection — the flue interior has to be seen, not assumed. Your technician confirms the right level on-site.

A standard Level 1 visit runs 45–60 minutes. Dallas appointments are usually available the same week.

Interior check of the firebox, damper operation, and smoke chamber. On gas units: burner, pilot, ignition, valve, and safety shutoffs tested.
