Professional Chimney Maintenance Contractors Near Town Of Southampton

The chimney is one of the most under appreciated features of a residence. The fact that chimneys often do their job properly, even when passed over, contributes to this perception that ‘it’s probably fine’. A chimney deteriorated by constant exposure to the weather could be a potential safety hazard. Regular chimney maintenance is necessary to prevent issues, deterioration and future hazardous, high-cost chimney restorations.

Incorrectly lined chimneys often cause a number of high-priced structural & cosmetic complications for the occupant & also create potentially serious safety hazards.

Masonry materials deteriorate quickly when exposed to the extreme freeze/thaw processes of Town Of Southampton, in which moisture that has penetrated the components periodically freezes & expands causing undue stress.

A stone chimney acts & seems to be like a brick chimney & it can also be protected from the effects of water penetration.

Chimney caps, also called rain covers, are probably the most inexpensive preventive measure that a client easily employ to prevent water penetration and problems to the chimney.

Installing chimney caps and dampers often protect your chimney & maintain a safe chimney damper.

Our technicians could advise a client in your own unique situation what is best for you.

One of the least expensive parts of the chimney venting system is the one that could prevent some of the most pricey complications. If you don’t have a chimney cap on your chimney, stop reading & call us for an estimate now! Every chimney craftsmen knows that a safe chimney cap is a must.

Many chimney caps today are built from aluminum, galvanized steel or decorative metals.

In especially windy areas chimneys also can prevent downdrafts by blocking crosswinds from entering the chimney.

With precision engineering this damper is easy to open and close, sealing tight when not in use.

This is the perfect upgrade for fireplace chimneys in older houses that infrequently have a damper.

These blockages will cause fire hazards & smoke back drafting into the residence.

Metal fireboxes, liners & dampers all can suffer rust and deterioration. Chimney liner tiles & mortar will crumble & crack, leading to serious problems. The chimney cap cover deflects rain & the side mesh prevents pests & leaves from entering. A properly fitted chimney cap or guard could slow wear-and-tear on your chimney & lining, saving you from costly expenses.

Our technicians will come out and recommend the best option for you and provide a written estimate to install a new chimney cap, damper, or guard.

Water starts more issues than any other element. It soaks into porous bricks & erodes the mortar. It’s a common problem: raccoons, squirrels, birds and bats try to make their home in your chimney.

Chimneys can block proper ventilation and even allow pests to enter your home, potentially spreading disease & causing havoc. Our strong mesh and lids will keep even the most determined animals out!

Your fireplace can send sparks onto the roof or nearby flammable products. Stray sparks may be stopped by the mesh cover that is a component of all our chimney caps.

LI Chimney Contractors for Chimney Lining Replacements

The method recommended for your chimney may depend on the type of deposits. A flue lining in a masonry chimney is defined as “a clay, ceramic, or metal liner.” A lining cleaning is cost-effective & ideal for fireplaces & chimneys serving gas, oil, wood, or coal appliances.

It conforms to any chimney size & shape, becoming a corrosion-proof, flame- and heat-resistant, airtight system with steel-like rigidity. A stainless steel liner locks in moisture & gases, keeping them out of your house.

Stainless steel liners are UL tested under extreme conditions, including simulated chimney fires over 2100°F, so you’ll sleep soundly knowing your home is safer.

The liner protects your house from heat transfer to nearby combustibles. Liners also protect masonry from the corrosive byproducts of combustion.

If flue gases penetrate brick & mortar, the chimney’s lifespan is drastically reduced. As mortar joints erode, heat transfers more quickly to combustibles & gases like carbon monoxide can leak into the house.

Modern stoves and furnaces need a properly-sized flue to operate efficiently. Our main role is to remove flue deposits & evaluate the overall chimney system.

The required cleaning frequency might depend on use, type of installation, fuel, and burning habits of the customer.

Chimneys should be cleaned when soot & creosote accumulations approach or exceed 1/4 inch. Glaze build-up in excess of 1/8 inch may be removed. We employ various cleaning systems to remove chimney deposits. Frequent (at least annual) chimney estimates are the only way to know when the chimney requires maintenance.

Several of the common chimney cleaning practices we provide include:

Standard Sweep. This is the standard cleaning method & uses brushes to clean the flue. A powerful, well-filtered vacuum prevents soot & creosote from entering the property. This cleaning is effective for soot and light creosote deposits but has little effect on glaze build-up.

Mechanical Sweeping. Mechanical cleaning uses wire brushes, plastic cables, or special chains rotated at high speed by an electric motor. It is often employed to remove hard creosote or glaze deposits. In rare cases where it is impossible to clean the flue by standard or mechanical methods, chemicals may be used to loosen & dissolve heavy deposits.

A thorough chimney sweep could remove soot, creosote & blockages from the flue liner, smoke chamber and shelf, firebox & damper. Heat, moisture, creosote & gases may be removed, repaired, or relined with a UL-listed liner system or other approved product that can resist corrosion, softening, or cracking from flue gases at temperatures proper for the class of the chimney job.

Chemical Cleaning: This needs two trips — sometimes 3 if necessary. Our chimney technicians may usually complete the job in a couple of hours & ensure your property stays clean and undisturbed. We pride ourselves on “no mess,” top-notch service with minimal interruption to you.
