The chimney flue is the inner shaft that vents smoke as well as gases which are created by burning a fire in the fire place.

In cases of light to moderate damage, it's possible to deal with the loosened mortar and cracks. One of our experts will be able to provide you a flue repair estimate as well as suggest the very best alternatives for your home.
Adding a chimney liner or relining your chimney can help shield your flue from damages and also protect against fires. The three primary types of liners are metal, clay, and cast-in-place liners.
Metal liners are a newly preferred kind of chimney liner for upgrades as well as repairs. They are typically produced from stainless steel, although they can sometimes be made from light weight aluminum also. Metal liners are are very versatile, available in rigid or flexible versions, and most any residence can accommodate them.
Clay tile liners are some of the most common kind of chimney liner. Most older homes have clay liners. They are rather cost-effective, yet require routine upkeep to make certain that flue tiles don't fracture, split, or break.
Cast in place liners are a light material comparable to cement that is installed inside the chimney for a seamless flue. These kinds of liners tend to be difficult to. install as well as expensive. In time, they can start to develop fractures and need relining.
Our pros can help establish the very best options for your home.
The chimney crown is really important. It functions as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your whole chimney. This shields your flue and chimney from rain and various other elements.
When the chimney crown gets fractures or becomes damaged in any way, it allows rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can trigger serious damages to the entire chimney if not fixed. When found early, basic repair work can be made to stop issues from happening.
If fracturing in the chimney crown is minor, the splits can be loaded with patch and a water-proof sealer can be used on top. This will securely block water from entering.
In situations where there is a lot more substantial damage to the crown, it might be needed to reconstruct it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's possible to rebuild only the crown. This will protect the chimney for many more years. It's important to have a professional chimney repair check the crown, flue, and entire chimney to make sure all areas are safe.
A chimney cap secures your home in many ways. It keeps rain, snow, and, dirt and animals out of your fireplace and also prevents hot sparks as well as embers from flying out and into your roof. You should never run your fireplace or wood burning stove without a chimney cap.
Chimney caps are constructed from galvanized or stainless steel, aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service technicians can replace your chimney cap or install a new one on your chimney if you do not have one yet.
Lots of people confuse the chimney damper with the flue. The flue is the interior of the chimney that smoke travels through. The damper is the part of the chimney that shuts off air circulation to the outside. When a damper becomes old, it requires repair. Normally fixing or replacing the existing old metal damper can be costly.
It's better to set up a top sealing damper. They are more economical, and every effective. A top sealing damper will keep cold drafts and unwanted weather outdoors. A considerable amount of airflow can leak in through the chimney from the outside, making your home feel chillier in the winter season. This can quickly add up to hundreds of dollars per year in extra heating costs.
There are times when a quick repair work isn't a great solution and a damaged chimney needs to be completely rebuilt. Our expert chimney experts can do chimney masonry repair service and full chimney rebuilding.

The firebox is the place inside the fire place where the fire burns. This part of the fireplace can occasionally require repair work. Firebox tuckpointing is a procedure that gets rid of old mortar joints. The surface in between the joints is cleaned up, and then the old joints are filled with new cement. Fractured or loose bricks can also be taken care of.
