Chimney Repair Near Pattersquash Island

CHIMNEY REPAIR NEAR PATTERSQUASH ISLAND, LONG ISLAND

What’s The Importance Of Chimney Repairs?

Chimneys secure the spot atop the chimney from water eroding where the roof joins the chimney. Your chimney is one of the most overlooked sections in the conservation of a home ability to remain dry and keep the inhabitants safe. Chimney damage is rarely seen – or even noticed – until something goes bad with it. When roof or chimney repair becomes leaky, it loses its resistance to water aggression and leaks start a host of other problems. The chimney caulking used to keep the chimney in place can slowly erode, making the roof wide open to leaks. Replacing the chimney (or chimney sealants) from time to time will go a long way in water tightening the roof and securing your Pattersquash Island home from water intrusion.

A chimney cap’s purpose is to hamper rain water and melting snow from infiltrating your structure. A chimney repair is almost always made with concrete or metal – spread or screwed to fit securely around the top of your chimney. If water is allowed to get in into your structure through a gap caused by harmed or missing chimney cap, there should be major cause for concern. Expressway provides chimney consultations, preventative maintenance and chimney estimates to protect the chimney as well as the roof and attic from the inevitable deterioration caused by excessive water aggression.

Checking For Chimney Complications

Even if your chimney looks good after a heavy rain or snow storm, there could still be underlying problems that may go unnoticed to a novice eye. Water stains could indicate the inception of a chimney leaking problem. Our professional chimney techs can find the source of the problem and address it ASAP. Leaky roofs almost always cause additional problems to other parts of your structure which might include the growth of sickening mold and mildew… and that may then cost the owner thousands more to fix. Are there shrinking, blistering or curling shingles? Is there any water leaking into the attic or into walls that you can see?

Fixing Your Chimney

Here in the NY tri-state area (and especially in Pattersquash Island) 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 to get in. Improperly installed chimneys or poor-quality cement or caulking used in the sealing process could be to blame. Old age – i.e. multiple cold winters and hot summers. If the chimney’s is damaged, it can quickly become a major issue if left unaddressed. With so much to gain from having correctly installed or maintained chimney, it’s important to ensure that the chimney is kept in efficient working order.

Some Signs The Chimney May Need Expressway:

  • the chimney is moving or fallen
  • the chimney is rusted or rotted through in spots
  • the chimney is now coming loose
  • the chimney covered with roofing tar
  • You’re installing new shingles (or having another roof job/work done)
  • the chimney is leaking water into your home.

Chimney Problems

Some of the chimneys that our chimney experts repair are the same chimney that were installed when the chimney was initially fitted. The next component that our chimney experts would look for is if the bricks that are above the chimney need to be fixed Missing mortar joints also need to be fixed and or re-tuckpointed so that the water could pass by the chimney cap. Our team could visit the property and assess the integrity of the home’s chimney system, identify whether your chimney needs to be fixed. Chimney inspection is a small maintenance task, but it’s one that you can’t afford to overlook. Expressway regularly repairs chimneys that will no longer do its job in securing a residence from damaging water. Chimney harm usually begins to erode chimney masonry below the roofline. If there are undiscovered cracks or compromises in this masonry, the leakage will be faster and more pervasive. Mold growth – which is usually in dark, undrafted and damp sections are perfect for growing and harboring mold. Because leakage happens below the roof and out of sight, homeowners may not become aware of a leak until a major safety and property danger occurs. We suggest you call Expressway to analyze your roof and chimney soon.
