CHIMNEY CAP REPAIRS FOR HAMPTON BAYS

What Damage Does A Chimney Cap Repair Fix?

A chimney cap repair is generally your Hampton Bays structure’s first line of protection against water harm. A chimney cap is one of the most imperitive parts of a residence’s healthy chimney. Chimney cap damage is rarely seen from the ground – or even noticed – until something goes awry with it. When roof or chimney cap repair becomes damaged, it loses it imperviousness and resistance to water and causes a host of other harm. The chimney cap caulking used to keep the chimney cap in place will slowly erode, making your roof sensitive to leaks. Warped or missing chimney cap parts can lead to serious water leak and severe problems to your Hampton Bays structure and parts of the chimney.

A chimney cap repair is typically made with concrete or metal – spread or screwed to fit securely around the top of the chimney. If water appears allowed to get in into your residence through a gap caused by harmed or missing chimney cap, there should be major cause for worry. Expressway provides chimney cap inspections, preventative maintenance and chimney assessments to cushion the chimney as well as the roof and attic from the inevitable rotting caused by excessive water aggression.

Watching Chimney Cap Damage

Even if your chimney appears okay after a heavy rain or snow storm, there could still be underlying leakage that might not be visible 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. Our highly-skilled chimney techs will find the source of the complication and repair it ASAP. On your dwelling’s roof, do you see unhealthy mold, algae, mildew or fungus growth? Are there shrinking, blistering or curling shingles? Is there any water leaking into the attic or into walls that you can see?

Fixing Your Own Chimney Cap

Here in the NY tri-state area (and especially in Hampton Bays) 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 leaks are common with certain types of chimney cap products. Workers on a Hampton Bays roof may also inadvertently harm or dislodge the chimney cap. A chimney cap that has corroded from the elements will eventually cause leaks to your roofing system, as the chimney cap repair helps forestall water harm from happening to the roof deck and shingle system. With so much to gain from having correctly installed or maintained chimney cap, it’s always important to ensure that the chimney cap is kept in excellent working order.

Some Signs your Chimney Needs A New Cap:

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

Chimney cap repairs for your property should last about 20 years in Hampton Bays’s climate due to the amount of wear and tear caused by New York’s weather.

Spotting Harmed Chimney Caps

Many of the structure’s chimneys in Hampton Bays are over 50 years old (or more) and failing. Most of the time, this can be fixed by cutting out the old metal chimney cap with an angle grinder and replacing it with a new chimney cap. Last – but not least – almost every fireplace’s crown needs to be tested for cracks, damage or breaks at least once a month.

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

If there are undiscovered cracks or compromises in this masonry, the problems can be faster and more pervasive. Mold growth – which is frequently in dark, undrafted and damp places are best for growing and harboring threatening mold. Because leakage begins below the roof and out of sight, customers may not become aware of any danger until a major safety and property risk occurs. We suggest you call Expressway to analyze your roof and chimney soon.
