See what cannot be judged from the fireplace
Some chimney problems stay hidden until a fire stops drawing properly, smoke behaves oddly or an installation needs checking before more work goes ahead. A CCTV chimney inspection lets us see inside the flue and investigate blockages, liner condition, installation faults and other issues that are not obvious from outside. Smoke testing helps us assess flue soundness, draught and the safe evacuation of combustion gases. With Beech Pure Clean, chimney CCTV inspection in Matlock is about evidence first, so you are not making decisions on guesswork alone.
Useful for faults, checks and planning next steps
We begin by reviewing the appliance and the flue arrangement, then we introduce the camera or carry out the smoke test according to what needs to be investigated. After that, we talk through the findings and what they mean for further work, repairs or installation checks. Choosing Beech Pure Clean means you get specialist chimney survey equipment used for a clear purpose, whether you are dealing with unexplained performance issues, suspected damage or a check on a new or existing flue installation.
Frequently asked questions
When is a CCTV chimney inspection useful?
It is useful when there are unexplained performance problems, suspected blockages, concerns about liner condition or the need to check a flue before remedial work. The camera gives us an inside view that ordinary visual checks cannot provide.
What does a smoke test tell you?
A smoke test helps us assess flue soundness, draught and whether combustion gases are likely to evacuate as they should. It is a practical way to investigate performance and identify whether the flue needs further attention.
Do you explain what the findings mean?
Yes. Once the inspection or test is complete, we talk through what we have found and what the sensible next step looks like. That might mean remedial work, further cleaning or simply a clearer picture of the installation condition.
