Chimney Repair Near West Islip

CHIMNEY REPAIR NEAR WEST ISLIP, LONG ISLAND

What Is The Importance Of Regular Chimney Repairs?

Chimneys preserve the place atop the chimney from water leaking where the roof joins the chimney. A chimney is one of the most important pieces of a residence’s integrity. Most clients don’t give a lot of thought to their West Islip home’s (or business’s) chimney. When roof or chimneys become leaky, it loses its resistance to water seepage and leaks cause a host of other leaks. The chimney caulking used to keep the chimney in place could slowly erode, making your roof open to leaks. If water gets past your chimney cap, there is nothing left to prevent it from eroding the structure’s walls and ceilings.

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

Chimney Conditions To Look Out For

Even if your chimney looks good after a heavy rain or snow storm, there could still be underlying damage that can go unnoticed to a novice eye. Water stains could indicate the beginning of a chimney leaking problem. Expressway’s expert chimney and roofing experts recommend you never let leaks go without addressing for very long. On your dwelling’s roof, do you see mold, algae, mildew or fungus growth? Are there some shrinking, blistering or curling shingles? Is there any water infiltrating into the attic or into walls that you can see?

Do I Need My Chimney Repaired Or Replaced?

Here in the NY tri-state area (and especially in West Islip) we get quite a bit of sun, wind, sleet, rain and snow every year. Squirrels, raccoons and other animals could be tearing at the chimney to get in. Improperly installed chimneys or poor-quality cement or caulking materials used in the sealing process could be to blame. Workers on the West Islip roof could also inadvertently break or dislodge the chimney. If the chimney’s is damaged, it can quickly become a major leak if left unaddressed. With so much to gain from having correctly installed or maintained chimney, it is critical to ensure that your chimney is kept in efficient working order.

Whether you have a fireplace that is built with masonry stone or brick you’ll have to maintain the chimney so that it won’t leak.

Spotting Harmful Chimney Parts

Many of the property’s chimneys in West Islip are over 50 years old or more and failing. The next component that our chimney experts would look for is if the bricks that are above the chimney need to be addressed Last – but not least – almost every fireplace needs to be investigated for cracks at least once a month. Chimney cracks are one of the main reasons that chimney can leak past the chimney cap or crown. Chimney inspection is a small maintenance task, but it’s one that you can’t afford to overlook. Expressway regularly repairs chimneys that could no longer do its job in preserving a property from infiltrating water. House and roof products also simply just develop leakage over time. Wall boards, insulation, electrical wiring and other dwelling building materials can be severely damaged by regular water infiltration. Mold is known to be dangerous to humans and pets and if water is leaking down into your structure, the growth will be widespread and very expensive to remedy. We suggest you call Expressway to check your roof and chimney soon.
