CHIMNEY REPAIR NEAR SOUTHOLD, LONG ISLAND

What Is The Need Of Regular Chimney Repairs?

A rooftop chimney is your Southold structure’s major line of defense against water damage. Your chimney is one of the most neglected sections in the maintenance of a residence ability to remain dry and keep your inhabitants safe. Chimney damage is rarely seen – or even noticed – until something goes bad with it. Chimney repairs are pertinent to hamper your Southold dwelling from water intrusion. Chimney repairs are generally made with cement or thin metal (tin, steel or aluminum) that is almost always mounted beneath your roof’s shingles. Warped or missing chimney parts can lead to serious water leak and severe problems to your Southold residence and parts of the chimney.

A chimney repair is frequently made with concrete or metal – spread or screwed to fit securely around the top of the chimney. When installed correctly, proper chimney fixes could serve you for many years. Expressway provides chimney services, preventative maintenance and chimney inspections to defend your chimney as well as your roof and attic from the inevitable deterioration caused by excessive water penetration.

Chimney Factors To Look Out For

Even if your chimney looks fine after a heavy rain or snow storm, there could still be underlying leakage that can go unnoticed to a novice eye. If, when it starts to rain, you notice that there are spots in your home that begin to leak, call Expressway Roofing & Chimney immediately. Expressway’s expert chimney specialists recommend you never let leaks go without resealing for very long. Leaky roofs always cause additional problems to other parts of your residence – which can include the growth of threatening mold and mildew – and that could usually cost you thousands more to fix. Are there some shrinking, blistering or curling shingles? Is there any water eroding into the attic or into walls that you can see?

How Does A Chimney Become Alarming?

Here in the NY tri-state area (and especially in Southold) we get quite a bit of sun, wind, sleet, rain and snow every year. Harm producers definitely include powerful winds that can free the chimney materials. Rust issues (which are common with certain types of chimney materials). Old age – i.e. many storms, cold winters and hot summers can also reduce your chimney’s lifespan. A chimney that has deteriorated from the elements will eventually cause damage to the roofing design, as your chimney repair helps forestall water harm from occurring to the roof deck and shingle layout. With so much to gain from having properly installed or maintained chimney, it’s always imperitive to ensure that the chimney is kept in excellent working order.

Chimney repairs should last about 20 years in Southold’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 fix are the same chimneys that were installed when the chimney was first built. Most of the time this could be resealed by cutting out the old alarming metal or brick chimney with an angle grinder and replacing the harmed pieces with new brick or metal. Missing mortar joints also need to be repaired and or re-tuckpointed so that the water may pass the chimney cap. Chimney cracks are one of the main reasons that chimney could leak past the chimney cap or crown. If the chimney’s is rusting and breaking away from the roof, Expressway’s team can replace all of the areas around the places in question and help to keep your dwelling’s roof protected. Chimney damage most commonly begins to erode chimney masonry below the roofline. If there are undiscovered cracks or compromises in this masonry, the leakage could be faster and more pervasive. Mold growth – which is almost always in dark, undrafted and damp areas are perfect for growing and harboring mold. Mold is known to be dangerous to humans and pets and if water is penetrating down into your dwelling, the growth can be widespread and very expensive to remedy. We suggest you call Expressway to check your roof and chimney soon.
