The Importance of a Chimney CCTV Survey

The first physical step in the claims process is a chimney CCTV Survey. Very often, insurance companies now require a detailed CCTV Survey inspection of a chimney flue after a chimney fire incident.

Our Chimney Fire Insurance Assessors can recommended specialists who carry out chimney CCTV Surveys. The CCTV Survey camera records footage of the internal walls of the flue. Therefore, this will pick up any defects in the form of cracks or fractures that may appear on the liner. Upon seeing evidence of fire damage in the footage, your insurance company should then accept liability. Once liability is accepted, chimney contractors can begin repairs and reline the stack.
