About Chimney Repair

Almost every chimney in the tristate fits in one of these categories:
1) It has just been repaired 2) It needs serious repairs 3) It needs to be rebuilt 4) Needs to be sealed. Chimney maintenance is key to keeping your chimney in good shape. Once your chimney's mortar and/or crown break down your chimney starts to allow water inside. Once that begins your chimney stays saturated and the masonry brakes down rapidly.
