CHIMNEY CAP REPAIRS FOR SHIRLEY

What Problems Does A Chimney Cap Repair Fix?

A chimney cap repair is frequently your Shirley structure’s first line of defense against water damage. Your chimney cap is one of the most forgotten places when it comes to the adequate sustainment of a home. Chimney cap damage is rarely seen from the ground – or even noticed – until something goes bad with it. Chimney cap repairs are necessary to forestall your Shirley home from water damage. The chimney cap caulking used to keep the chimney cap in place will slowly erode, making the roof prone to leaks. Chimney cap repair is the first line of defense from water damage.

A chimney cap’s purpose is to prevent rain water and melting snow from leaking your home. When installed exactly, proper chimney cap repairs will serve you for many years. Expressway provides chimney cap inspections, preventative maintenance and chimney assessments to defend your chimney as well as your roof and attic from the inevitable deterioration caused by excessive water aggression.

Chimney Cap Damage To Inspect For

Following a storm, walk around your dwelling and evaluate 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 expert chimney techs will find the source of the issue and reseal it ASAP. Leaky roofs almost always cause additional leakage to other parts of your structure which can include the growth of dangerous mold and mildew… and that will then cost you thousands more to replace. Are there shrinking, blistering or curling shingles? Is there any water infiltrating into the attic or into walls or down stairs that you can see?

Repairing Your Own Chimney Cap

A variety of elements can rot your chimney cap and begin the need for either a chimney cap repair or a chimney cap installation. Squirrels, raccoons and other animals may be tearing at the chimney cap to get in. Rust issues are common with certain types of chimney cap metals. Workers on your home’s Shirley roof may also inadvertently damage or dislodge the chimney cap. A chimney cap that has deteriorated from the elements will eventually cause problems to the roofing system, as the chimney cap repair helps hamper water harm from occurring to the roof deck and shingle system. With so much to gain from having properly installed or maintained chimney cap, it’s important to ensure that your chimney cap is kept in excellent working order.

Some Signs A Chimney Needs A New Cap:

  • If your chimney cap is harmed
  • When your chimney cap is rusted or rotted through
  • If your 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 home.

Whether your Shirley dwelling 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 Destruction Below The Surface

Many of the chimneys that we repair are the same chimney caps that were installed when the chimney was originally built. The next element that our chimney experts would watch the bricks that are above the chimney cap need to be addressed. Missing mortar joints also need to be addressed and or re-tuckpointed so that the water can freely pass by the chimney cap.

Our team will visit the property and assess the integrity of your home’s chimney system, identify whether your chimney cap needs to be repaired. Chimney inspection appears a small maintenance task, but it’s one that you can’t afford to overlook. Expressway regularly addresses chimney caps that can no longer do its job in securing a home from damaging water.

If there are undiscovered cracks or compromises in this masonry, the problems can be faster and more pervasive. Wall boards, insulation, electrical wiring and other structure building materials can be heavily damaged by regular water intrusion. Mold is known to be unhealthy to humans and pets – and – if water is infiltrating down into your dwelling, the growth can be widespread and very expensive to repair. We suggest you call Expressway to analyze your roof and chimney soon.
