Professional chimney inspection that catches dangerous problems before they put your family at risk or cost you thousands in repairs.
Hear from Our Customers
You’ll know exactly what’s happening inside your chimney system. Our certified technicians identify creosote buildup, structural damage, and blockages that could turn your cozy fireplace into a safety hazard.
We catch problems when they’re still small and affordable to fix. Cracked flue liners, damaged flashing, and deteriorating mortar joints get spotted early, before they become emergency repairs that cost thousands.
Your fireplace works the way it should all season long. No more wondering if that smell is normal, or burning money through poor airflow and heat loss from a system that’s not operating efficiently.
Above and Beyond Chimney has been protecting Providence County homes for years. Our CSIA-certified technicians understand exactly how Rhode Island’s brutal winters and coastal moisture affect your chimney system.
We see the same problems in South Elmwood homes every year. Freeze-thaw cycles that crack masonry, heavy creosote deposits from long heating seasons, and water damage from nor’easters that can destroy your chimney from the inside out.
Every inspection gets the same thorough approach, whether you’re in a 200-year-old colonial or last year’s new construction. Your family’s safety matters just as much as ours, and we inspect accordingly.
We start outside, examining your chimney crown, flashing, and masonry for cracks, deterioration, or water damage. These exterior components protect your entire system, and problems here often signal bigger issues inside.
Inside your chimney, we check the flue liner for damage, measure creosote buildup levels, and test damper operation. We’re looking for anything that could block proper airflow, create fire hazards, or allow carbon monoxide into your home.
You get a clear explanation of what we found in plain English. What needs immediate attention, what you should watch for, and what’s fine for now. No surprise upsells or technical jargon – just honest information about your chimney’s condition.

Our comprehensive chimney inspection covers every component that affects safety and performance. We examine the chimney structure, flue liner, damper, firebox, and all connections to ensure everything works together properly.
South Elmwood’s location means your chimney faces specific challenges other areas don’t deal with. The coastal moisture that accelerates masonry deterioration, plus Rhode Island’s extended winter seasons that create heavy creosote deposits and increase fire risk.
You get detailed documentation with photos showing exactly what we found. This isn’t just for our records – it helps with insurance requirements, gives you a baseline for future maintenance, and provides proof of proper care if you ever sell your home.
