CHIMNEY REPAIR NEAR BROOKVILLE, LONG ISLAND

What Does A Chimney Repair Address?

A rooftop chimney is your Brookville residence’s major line of defense against water problems. A chimney is one of the most important parts of a structure’s integrity. Chimney damage is rarely seen – or even noticed – until something goes awry with it. When roof or chimneys become damaged, it loses its resistance to water penetration and leaks cause a host of other weakening. The chimney caulking applied to keep the chimney in place could slowly erode, making the roof sensitive to leaks. Warped or missing chimney parts can lead to serious water leak and severe harm to your Brookville home and parts of the chimney.

A chimney cap’s purpose is to stop rain water and melting snow from infiltrating your structure. If water is allowed to penetrate into the property through a gap caused by damages or missing chimney cap, there should be major cause for alarm. Expressway provides chimney services, preventative maintenance and chimney inspections to defend the chimney as well as your roof and attic from the inevitable deterioration caused by excessive water aggression.

Chimney Elements To Look Out For

Following a storm, walk around your home and check for water stains and in your house and ceilings using a flashlight – if possible. Water stains could indicate the beginning of a chimney leaking problem. Expressway’s highly-skilled chimney specialists recommend you never let leaks go without addressing for very long. Leaky roofs always cause additional problems to other parts of your dwelling – which can include the growth of unhealthy mold and mildew – and that could usually cost you thousands more to fix. If you notice harmful mold, shrinking, blistering or curling shingles, contact an highly-skilled chimney company such as Expressway to check your home’s roof and recommend an appropriate road of action before it’s too late.

How Does A Chimney Become Damaged?

A variety of parts can harm your chimney and initiate the need for either a chimney replacement or a full, new chimney installation. Squirrels, raccoons and other animals can be tearing at the chimney to get in. Rust factors (which are common with certain types of chimney products). Workers on your home’s Brookville roof will also inadvertently harm or dislodge the chimney. A chimney that has deteriorated from the elements can eventually cause damage to your roofing system, as your chimney fix helps prevent water problems from occurring to the roof deck and shingle system. With so much to gain from having precisely installed or maintained chimney, it’s pertinent to ensure that the chimney is kept in excellent working order.

Chimney repairs should last about 20 years in Brookville’s climate – but can fluctuate due to the amount of wear and tear caused by our climate, storms and other weather patterns.

Chimney Destruction Issues

Many of the chimneys that we repair are the same chimneys that were installed when the chimney was first built. Most of the time this will be repaired by cutting out the old leaky metal or brick chimney with an angle grinder and replacing the damaged pieces with new brick or metal. Missing mortar joints also need to be repaired and or re-tuckpointed so that the water will pass the chimney cap. Our team will visit the property and assess the integrity of the dwelling’s chimney layout, identify whether your chimney needs to be resealed. Chimney inspection is a small maintenance task, but it’s one that you can’t afford to overlook. Chimney harm usually begins to erode chimney masonry below the roofline. If there are undiscovered cracks or compromises in this masonry, the damage can be faster and more pervasive. Wall boards, insulation, electrical wiring and other property building products can be severely damaged by regular water infiltration. Because damage happens below the roof and out of sight, homeowners 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.
