CHIMNEY CAP REPAIRS FOR YAPHANK

A Few Of The Various Types Of Chimney Caps

Chimney caps secure the spot atop the chimney from leaking water where the roof meets the chimney. A chimney cap is one of the most imperitive parts of a structure’s healthy chimney. Most customers don’t give a lot of thought to their Yaphank home’s (or business’s) chimney caps integrity. When roof or chimney cap repair becomes problematic, it loses it imperviousness and resistance to water and initiates a host of other harm. The chimney cap caulking used to keep your chimney cap in place will slowly erode, making your roof prone to leaks. Chimney cap repair is your first line of defense from water aggression.

A chimney cap’s purpose is to impede rain water and melting snow from eroding your property. If water appears allowed to enter into your dwelling through a gap caused by damages or missing chimney cap, there should be major cause for alarm. Expressway provides chimney cap inspections, preventative maintenance and chimney assessments to defend your chimney as well as your roof and attic from the inevitable rust caused by excessive water intrusion.

Evaluating Chimney Cap Damage

Following a storm, walk around your structure and analyze for water stains and in your house and ceilings using a flashlight – if possible. If, when it starts to rain, you notice that there are areas in your residence that start to leak, call Expressway Roofing & Chimney immediately. Expressway’s professional chimney pros recommend you never let leaks go without fix for very long. Leaky roofs almost always cause additional leakage to other parts of your home which can include the growth of risky mold and mildew… and that will then cost you thousands more to repair. If you notice threatening mold, shrinking, blistering or curling shingles, contact an highly-skilled chimney cap chimney company such as Expressway to inspect your residence’s roof and recommend an appropriate course of action before it’s too late.

Do I Need My Chimney Cap Repaired?

Here in the NY tri-state area (and especially in Yaphank) we get quite a bit of sun, wind, sleet, rain and snow every year. Damage producers definitely include powerful winds that can move the chimney cap material. Rust weakening are common with certain types of chimney cap products. Workers on your Yaphank roof may also inadvertently damage or dislodge the chimney cap. A chimney cap that has deteriorated from the elements will eventually cause weakening to the roofing system, as the chimney cap repair helps stall water leakage from happening to the roof deck and shingle system. With so much to gain from having correctly installed or maintained chimney cap, it’s important to ensure that the chimney cap is kept in efficient 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 your chimney cap looks coming loose
  • the chimney cap is covered with roofing tar
  • You’re installing new roof shingles – or having other roofing work done
  • the chimney seems to be leaking water into your structure.

Whether your Yaphank 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.

Spotting Broken Chimney Caps

Many of the property’s chimneys in Yaphank 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.

Our team will visit the property and assess the integrity of your structure’s chimney system, identify whether the chimney cap needs to be resealed. Chimney inspection seems to be a small maintenance task, but it’s one that you can’t afford to overlook. Chimney problems usually begins to erode chimney masonry below the roofline.

Home products can simply develop damage over time. Mold growth – which is generally in dark, undrafted and damp places are optimal for growing and harboring adverse mold. Mold is known to be threatening to humans and pets – and – if water is damaging down into your structure, the growth can be widespread and very expensive to address. We suggest you call Expressway to analyze your roof and chimney soon.
