Work layers  /  Chimney sweep

Chimney sweep.

A Level 1 or Level 2 inspection report with findings, photos and a plain recommendation — and a sweep record that doesn't read like a receipt. $59, once.

How a job goes

Built around the order you actually work in.

Not a generic service form with a notes box at the bottom. The fields are the ones that matter on this job, and the document at the end is the one your customer expects.

  • Say which level you're doing

    Level 1, Level 2 or a sweep. It's on the report from the start, because the level defines what you did and didn't look at.

  • Work through the system

    Findings go in one at a time — component, what you found, how serious, and a photo. Not a paragraph at the bottom that nobody reads.

  • Record what you couldn't inspect

    Sealed, inaccessible, unsafe to access. This is the most legally useful part of the report and most software has nowhere to put it.

  • Hand over the report

    Findings summarised by severity on page one, photos underneath, your certification printed on it, signed on the phone.

What it records

Inspection level · appliance and fuel type · flue and liner condition · creosote stage · component findings with severity and photos · what wasn't inspected and why · recommendations · sweep performed · certification number · customer signature.

What it won't do

It doesn't decide whether a chimney is safe to use, and it doesn't say anything is up to code. You make the call; Sterling records it in your words and stands behind the photos.

Works with no signal

Do the whole job offline — photos and all — and it syncs itself when you're back in range.

Honest note

If I got a word wrong, tell me and I'll fix it for everybody.

There's a button inside every work layer that sends me a message. I read all of them myself. When a fix ships because someone told me, it goes in the changelog with a thank-you.
