Common Chimney Issues
Structural
Structural issues like cracked or spalling masonry, a leaning chimney, or a damaged crown can weaken the chimney over time.
Water Damage
Chimneys are highly susceptible to water damage, which can lead to leaks, rusted components, and deteriorating masonry.
Draft & Ventilation
Chimneys face various issues that impact safety and performance, including structural deterioration, water damage, and ventilation problems.
Flue & Liner
A damaged or improperly sized flue liner can lead to serious safety hazards, including heat and smoke escaping into walls.
Fire & Carbon Monoxide
Chimney fires and carbon monoxide leaks are major safety hazards often caused by creosote buildup, poor ventilation, or cracks in the liner.
Cap & Flashing
A missing chimney cap or faulty flashing can lead to water damage, debris buildup, and even animal infestations.
