Chimney Repair
Chimneys are an essential but often ignored part of the house. Outside of the chimney sweep, very few homeowners are truly aware of any repair or maintenance that the chimney might require. When it comes down to it, it’s out of sight, out of mind. It shouldn’t be. Letting chimneys fall into disrepair can not only lead to more expenses down the line and also risk your health. An inefficient chimney can also increase the levels of carbon monoxide and other exhaust gases in the room, which happens but rarely, yet one must be cautious.We at Masonry Solutions LLC are determined to provide a complete chimney repair service to our clients.

Various Aspects of Chimney Repair
Masonry Solutions LLC is well equipped to deal with any and all problems that your chimney might have. Usually, your chimney might require only minor repairs but sometimes, there are major faults in the structure that need to be addressed.- Chimney Cap: An efficient chimney cap would keep water, dust and debris out of the chimney. If the cap is damaged, it’ll allow water and debris to enter the chimney and that can damage the entire structure.
- Structural damage and spalling: Cracks in the structure of the chimney can prove to be a major problem if it’s ignored. At early stages, this is an easy fix for any mason.
- Fireplace repair: The firebox is directly exposed to heat and smoke and it is the part of the chimney that is most susceptible to damage. It is recommended that you have it inspected at regular intervals. Being diligent in maintenance would reduce the chimney repair expenses.
- Fireplace flue: The flue is what keeps all the dangerous exhaust and gases away from you. Keeping it in good repair is absolutely essential.
