CHIMNEY CAP REPAIRS FOR EAST END

What’s The Need For Chimney Cap Repairs?

A chimney cap repair is typically your East End residence’s first line of defense against water breakage. Your chimney cap is one of the most neglected places when it comes to the adequate sustainment of a residence. Most homeowners don’t give a lot of thought to their East End home’s (or business’s) chimney caps integrity. Chimney cap repairs are necessary to hamper your East End structure from water damage. The chimney cap caulking used to keep your chimney cap in place will slowly erode, making your roof prone to leaks. Warped or missing chimney cap parts can lead to serious water leak and heavy harm to your East End residence and parts of the chimney.

A chimney cap’s purpose is to avert rain water and melting snow from aggressive your residence. If water appears allowed to penetrate into the property through a gap caused by harmed or missing chimney cap, there should be major cause for leaks. Expressway provides chimney cap inspections, preventative maintenance and chimney inspections to preserve your chimney as well as the roof and attic from the inevitable corrosion caused by excessive water penetration.

Looking Chimney Cap Damage

Even if your chimney appears dry after a heavy rain or snow storm, there could still be underlying problems that might not be obvious to a novice eye. If, when it starts to rain, you notice that there are areas in your dwelling that start to leak, call us immediately. Expressway’s expert chimney pros recommend you never let leaks go without repair for very long. Leaky roofs almost always cause additional damage to other parts of your structure which can include the growth of srisky mold and mildew… and that will then cost the owner thousands more to replace. Are there shrinking, blistering or curling shingles? Is there any water damaging into the attic or into walls that you can see?

Do I Need My Chimney Cap Repaired?

Here in the NY tri-state area (and especially in East End) we get quite a bit of sun, wind, sleet, rain and snow every year. Squirrels, raccoons and other animals may be tearing at the chimney cap to get in. Rust harms are common with certain types of chimney cap materials. Workers on your East End roof may also inadvertently break or dislodge the chimney cap. If the chimney’s cap is damaged, it can quickly become a major issue if left neglected. With so much to gain from having properly installed or maintained chimney cap, it is important to ensure that your chimney cap is kept in prime working order.

Some Signs your Chimney Needs A New Cap:

  • If the chimney cap is damaged
  • When the chimney cap appears rusted or rotted through
  • If the chimney cap is coming loose
  • Your chimney cap seems to be covered with roofing tar
  • You’re installing new roof shingles – or having other roofing work done
  • Your chimney is leaking water into your residence.

Whether your East End property has a fireplace that was built with masonry stone or brick – you’ll have to maintain the chimney cap so that it won’t leak.

Spotting Leaky Chimney Caps

Many of the chimneys that our chimney experts repair are the same chimney caps that were installed when the chimney was originally built. The next component that our technicians would assess the bricks that are above the chimney cap need to be fixed Missing mortar joints also need to be repaired and or re-tuckpointed so that the water can readily pass by the chimney cap.

Expressway’s team will visit your property and assess the integrity of your residence’s chimney system, identify whether the chimney cap needs to be repaired. If your chimney’s cap is rusting and breaking away from your roof, our team will replace all of the areas around the spots in question and help to keep the property’s roof protected. Chimney leakage generally begins to erode chimney masonry below the roofline.

Home pieces can simply develop leakage over time. Wall boards, insulation, electrical wiring and other home building materials can be heavily broken by regular water insertion. Mold is known to be harmful to humans and pets – and – if water is infiltrating down into your residence, the growth can be widespread and very expensive to remedy. We suggest you call Expressway to test your roof and chimney soon.
