What to include in your estimate request

Separate the visit from repair work

  • Ask what inspection or cleaning the visit includes and whether a written report or photographs will be provided.
  • Keep masonry, flashing, cap, liner and appliance work separately described. A cleaning fee does not establish a repair scope.

Check who performs each task

  • Identify the business responsible for construction, appliance or fuel-related work and ask about relevant qualifications.
  • Discuss permits and inspection responsibilities for alterations with the local authority. Keep recommendations and estimates in writing.

Oregon credential and permit starting points

Use CCB and relevant trade checks for the proposed repairs or installation. A sweeping visit and construction work are not interchangeable credential checks.

Common questions

Does a sweep include a repair inspection?

Ask what type of assessment is included and what the report will cover before booking.

Does the site confirm winter availability?

No. Confirm the service, your address and scheduling directly with a business.
