About Chimney Repairs
Chimneys are exposed to a lot of harsh weather conditions, necessitating their resilience against diverse challenges. Conducting periodic inspections for chimneys is a prudent practice. Identifying and addressing issues promptly not only mitigates their severity but also curtails potential expenses.
Chimney repairs might encompass brickwork, stonework, mortar, or lead flashing, or even necessitate a blend of these interventions. If mortar is compromised, re-pointing the chimney becomes imperative to prevent the disintegration of the brickwork and stonework due to the absence of structural cohesion. Timely intervention safeguards the integrity of the chimney, averting further deterioration.
Chimney Inspection
Although you may get your chimney swept regularly as suggested (once a year) flue, most people fail to inspect their chimney and carry out maintenance until there is a major failure. Small cracks high up on the roof can be difficult to spot.
If left too long, damage can become serious. The chimney structure becomes increasingly weakened and vulnerable to storm damage, leaks occur and the rest of the building structure becomes vulnerable to water damage; and problems become increasingly expensive to fix.
