What Types of Chimneys Do We Repair?

Brick and masonry chimneys are known for their durability and classic appearance. We specialize in repairing cracked mortar, replacing damaged bricks, and restoring the structure to ensure longevity. Common issues include spalling bricks and water penetration, which can compromise the chimney's integrity if not addressed promptly. Our team uses high-quality materials to match your home's existing masonry for a seamless repair.

Prefabricated metal chimneys are popular for their ease of installation and efficiency. These chimneys often require repairs to address rust, corrosion, or damage to the chimney cap. We inspect the metal components to ensure safety and proper function, replacing any corroded parts to prevent potential hazards. This type of chimney is common in modern homes and offers an affordable solution for efficient smoke and gas expulsion.

Wood fireplace chimneys require specialized knowledge due to the different types of fuel and venting systems involved. Wood-burning fireplaces often need chimney sweeps to remove creosote buildup, while gas fireplaces require regular inspection of the flue and venting system. We ensure that your chimney is safe and operates efficiently, preventing issues such as carbon monoxide leaks and ensuring optimal performance.

Signs You Need Chimney Repair Service?

Recognizing the need for chimney repairs early can prevent extensive damage and costly repairs down the line. Here are some common signs:

  • Cracked Bricks or Mortar: Visible cracks can indicate structural damage that needs immediate attention.
  • White Staining (Efflorescence): This indicates moisture problems within the chimney that need fixing.
  • Rusted Damper or Firebox: Rust is a sign of excessive moisture, which can weaken the chimney structure.
  • Deteriorating Mortar Joints: If the mortar joints are crumbling, it can lead to serious structural issues.
  • Chimney Leaks: Water stains on walls or ceilings near the chimney suggest leakage.
  • Shaling Flue Tiles: Finding thin slices of chimney tile in the fireplace is a sign the flue is damaged.

Spotting these issues early can save homeowners from larger, more expensive repairs. Regular inspections and maintenance, such as chimney cleaning, help in identifying these signs before they escalate. A certified chimney repair company in Burlington can assess and address these problems effectively.
