Chimney Cap Repairs For North Hempstead

CHIMNEY CAP REPAIRS FOR NORTH HEMPSTEAD

Some Of The Numerous Types Of Chimney Caps

Chimney caps defend the section atop the chimney from leaking water where the roof meets the chimney. A chimney cap is one of the most pertinent parts of a structure’s healthy chimney. Most homeowners don’t give a lot of thought to their North Hempstead home’s (or business’s) chimney caps integrity. When roof or chimney cap repair becomes damaged, it loses it imperviousness and resistance to water and begins a host of other problems. The chimney cap caulking used to keep the chimney cap in place will slowly erode, making your roof susceptible to leaks. If water gets under the chimney cap, there is nothing left to stop it from eroding into the structure’s structure’s walls and ceilings.

A chimney cap’s purpose is to avert rain water and melting snow from eroding your property. If water is allowed to get in into the property through a gap caused by leaking or missing chimney cap, there should be major cause for concern. Expressway provides chimney cap inspections, preventative maintenance and chimney inspections to defend your chimney as well as the roof and attic from the inevitable corrosion caused by excessive water aggression.

Checking For Chimney Cap Damage

Following a storm, walk around your dwelling and check for water stains and in your house and ceilings using a flashlight – if possible. Water stains could indicate the start of your chimney leaking problem. Our highly-skilled chimney techs will find the source of the harm and replace it ASAP. On your home’s roof, do you see unhealthy mold, algae, mildew or fungus growth? Are there shrinking, blistering or curling shingles? Is there any water penetrating into the attic or into walls or down stairs that you can see?

Fixing Your Own Chimney Cap

Here in the NY tri-state area (and especially in North Hempstead) 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 damage are common with certain types of chimney cap metals. Workers on your North Hempstead roof may also inadvertently break or dislodge the chimney cap. If the chimney’s cap seems to be leaky, it can quickly become a major issue if left omitted. With so much to gain from having precisely installed or maintained chimney cap, it is important to ensure that your chimney cap is kept in excellent working order.

Some Signs The Chimney Needs A New Cap:

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

Whether your North Hempstead residence 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.

Recognizing Harm Below The Surface

Many of the chimneys that our pros repair are the same chimney caps that were installed when the chimney was first built. The next part that we would assess the bricks that are above the chimney cap need to be addressed. Missing mortar joints also need to be corrected 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 structure’s chimney system, identify whether your chimney cap needs to be replaced. 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 your residence’s roof defended. Chimney damage frequently begins to erode chimney masonry below the roofline.

House products can simply develop damage over time. Mold growth – which is typically in dark, undrafted and damp spots are fitting for growing and harboring threatening mold. Because breakage occurrs below the roof and out of sight, clients may not become aware of a leak until a major safety and property risk occurs. We suggest you call Expressway to test your roof and chimney soon.
