Chimney & flue inspection report

Field record

Component by component, what the inspecting party reported — and how they looked at it.

What you could see, and what you could not

The scope field asks which parts the inspection reached and how — and what could not be seen. That last part is the one a report is most often criticised for omitting, and it is the honest half of any inspection.

CompliMaint does not perform or certify this inspection

This is a record of what another party reported. The inspecting party — your sweep, your contractor, or your own qualified person — did the work and owns every word of it, and the record names them. CompliMaint performs nothing, reviews nothing and certifies nothing here.

No level of inspection is defined here

There is no level selector and no list of levels on this page. Those scopes are defined by the chimney standard your jurisdiction has adopted, not by this product. Where a contractor has stated a level, it is recorded as ordinary free text in their own words, attributed to them. CompliMaint also states no clearance to combustibles, no liner or flue dimension and no acceptance criterion.

It reaches no verdict

Nothing here concludes that a chimney has passed, failed, is condemned, is unsafe or is safe to use. The summary and the advice belong to the party who did the inspection, in their own words. If you believe a flue is dangerous, say so and act on it — the form is written afterwards.

A component-by-component record of what another party reported about a chimney or flue, kept on your device. CompliMaint does not perform, review or certify the inspection, and it offers no inspection-level selector. It states no level of inspection, no clearance to combustibles, no dimension and no acceptance criterion, and it makes no determination that a chimney has passed, failed, is condemned, is unsafe or is safe to use. Those belong to the inspector who was there and to the standard your jurisdiction has adopted. There is no commercial, affiliate or referral placement on this page. Everything runs on your device.

Questions people ask

Who performs the inspection this records?
Somebody else does. CompliMaint does not perform, review or certify a chimney inspection — this page records what the inspecting party reported, attributed to them by name.
Does it define the inspection level?
No. There is no level selector and no list of levels here. Those scopes are defined by the chimney standard your jurisdiction has adopted, not by CompliMaint. If your contractor stated a level, it is recorded as ordinary free text in their words.
Does it define the scope?
No. The scope field is where the inspecting party describes what was actually reached and how — including what could not be seen.
Does it say whether a chimney is safe to use?
No. It condemns nothing and clears nothing. The summary and the advice belong to the party who did the inspection; if you believe a flue is dangerous, act on it rather than filling in a form.
Does it hold clearance figures?
No. It states no clearance to combustibles and no flue dimension. Those come from the standard your jurisdiction has adopted.
Can I record how each component was looked at?
Yes — there is a method column, because “from the roof” and “by camera” are different quality of observation and the report should say which.
