Home inspectors often perform home inspections where there is a fireplace or other appliances that require a chimney or venting system. Taking a step above the minimum standard of care and offering ChimneyScan as an add-on service can be a source of additional fees to your inspection. But without the training or skills to take your standard inspection to a higher level, you may be missing out. Isn’t it time that you captured this market?
