1. What kind of home do you have?
Pick the illustration that most looks like your house. We'll use this to size the liner run — no guessing needed.
Ranch
One story, long horizontal profile, gentle roof pitch. Side or gable-end chimney. The easiest possible access — a single ladder from the ground reaches everything. Baseline pricing.
One story · low-pitch roof · side chimney · walkable when needed
Cape Cod
One-and-a-half stories with a steep pitched roof. The Cape's signature is a large brick chimney rising from the center of the ridge — that's what makes access more involved. Roof ladder work is normal here.
1.5 stories · steep pitch · large central chimney · classic small footprint
High Ranch / Raised Ranch
The Long Island signature. Two-car garage sits on the lower level; full-size ranch living is on top. Entry is between the two levels via a raised platform. Eaves are taller than a straight ranch, so ladder setup takes more reach. Side chimney typical.
Two-car garage under · raised entry · full-width upper story · side chimney
Tudor
Steep pitched roof with cross-gables, half-timbered detail on the upper facade, and often a tall stone or brick chimney rising the full height of the house. The complex roofline makes access harder — usually needs roof-ladder work or scaffolding.
Steep + complex roofline · half-timbering · tall stone/brick chimney · often cross-gabled
Colonial
Two full stories with a symmetric facade, gabled or gambrel roof, and shutters flanking the windows. Chimney typically rises the full side of the house. Tall stack usually requires a full-extension ladder with standoff and tie-off, sometimes ground scaffolding on tight side-yards.
2 stories · symmetric facade · tall side chimney · shutters · gabled/gambrel roof
Modern / Contemporary
Angular design with flat or low-slope roof, large glass expanses, mixed material finishes, and often minimal or hidden chimney. Chimney position varies widely — usually requires an on-site walkthrough to lock in the access method.
Flat/low-slope roof · geometric massing · large glass · minimal or concealed chimney
Split-Level
Two-level house with staggered roof heights. Main living on the upper platform, entry and family room on the lower half-flight. Chimney typically rises from the upper section, so ladder reach is longer than a straight ranch.
Staggered rooflines · half-flight entry · garage on lower wing · chimney on upper section
Victorian / Queen Anne
Complex asymmetric roofline with turrets, gables, and often a round tower. Tall multi-story stack rises the full height of the house. Access almost always requires a mix of methods — long extension ladders + roof-ladder work + sometimes scaffolding.
Asymmetric roofline · turret or tower · steep + complex roof · tall chimney
