Robinson Chimney Company, Based in Brentwood
Ask Robinson a Question
Leave your name and number, and a line on what you need. We call back and tell you whether it is a sweep, an inspection or a repair.
One Question Before Any Ladder Goes Up
When a Brentwood homeowner calls Robinson Chimney Company, the first thing we ask is whether the house is going on the market. It sounds like a sales question. It is not. It changes what we inspect, how much we photograph, and who the report is written for.
If you are selling, the report has to stand on its own. A buyer's inspector will read it without us there, so it names each part, says what condition it is in, and shows a photo. The Level 2 camera inspection that NFPA 211 calls for at a sale goes in the same visit.
If you are staying, the report is for you. It sorts what we found into what needs doing now and what can wait a season, so a rusty cap or a hairline crack in the crown gets planned instead of argued about. Either way, nothing gets fixed that you did not agree to first.
How Robinson Works on Your House
Four plain habits, the same on a Brentwood estate and a Culver City cottage.
Ask Before We Look
Selling or staying is the first question on every call. It decides what we inspect and who the report is written for.
Name the Part
The report names each part of the chimney and says what shape it is in. No vague lines like "needs attention".
Show the Photo
Every finding has a picture next to it, so an owner, an agent or a buyer can see what we mean.
Your Yes First
We sort repairs into now and later and explain why. Nothing gets fixed until you agree to it.
What the Write-Up Gives You
Keep it with the house papers. It helps the next visit, and it helps a sale.
