CHIMNEY REPAIR NEAR THOMASTON, LONG ISLAND

What Are Some Styles Of Chimney Repairs?

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

A chimney repair is generally made with concrete or metal – spread or screwed to fit securely around the top of your chimney. If water is allowed to enter into the structure 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 secure your chimney as well as the roof and attic from the inevitable deterioration caused by excessive water aggression.

Checking For Chimney Leakage

Following a storm, walk around your residence and test for water stains and in your house and ceilings using a flashlight – if possible. Water stains could indicate the start of a chimney leaking problem. Expressway’s trained chimney and roofing technicians recommend you never let leaks go without a repair for very long. Leaky roofs always cause additional issues to other parts of your structure – which can include the growth of dangerous mold and mildew – and that may assuredly cost you thousands more to address. Are there some shrinking, blistering or curling shingles? Is there any water damaging into the attic or into walls that you can see?

How Does A Chimney Become Concerning?

Here in the NY tri-state area (and especially in Thomaston) we get quite a bit of sun, wind, sleet, rain and snow every year. Problem producers definitely include powerful winds that can move the chimney materials. Incorrectly installed chimneys or poor-quality cement or caulking materials used in the sealing process could be to blame. Old age – i.e. many storms, cold winters and hot summers can also affect your chimney’s lifespan. If the chimney’s is leaky, it can quickly become a major problem if left unaddressed. With so much to gain from having properly installed or maintained chimney, it’s essential to ensure that the chimney is kept in efficient working order.

Some Signs Your Chimney will Need Expressway’s Chimney Experts:

  • the chimney is uplifted or fallen
  • the chimney is rusted or rotted through in spots
  • the chimney is coming free
  • the chimney covered with roofing tar
  • You’re installing new roof shingles (or having other roofing work done)
  • Your chimney is allowing water into your home.

Spotting Destructive Chimney Parts

Many of the home’s chimneys in Thomaston are over 50 years old or more and failing. The next thing that we would look for is if the bricks that are above the chimney need to be addressed Missing mortar joints also need to be repaired and or re-tuckpointed so that the water can pass the chimney cap. Expressway’s team could visit the property and assess the integrity of the residence’s chimney system, identify whether your chimney needs to be replaced. If the chimney’s is rusting and breaking away from your roof, our team could replace all of the areas around the sections in question and help to keep your structure’s roof protected. Expressway regularly repairs chimneys that could no longer do its job in securing a property from damaging water. House and roof products also simply just develop harm over time. Wall boards, insulation, electrical wiring and other property building materials will be severely broken by regular water infiltration. Because leakage happens below the roof and out of sight, clients may not become aware of any danger until a major safety and property risk occurs. We suggest you call Expressway to maintain your roof and chimney soon.
