Catskill NY and our neighboring towns all around the Hudson River are full of beautiful brick and stone masonry chimneys. The interior of these chimneys contain what is known as a terracotta clay flue tile. These flue tiles are designed to safely contain the byproducts of combustion produced by your fireplace, wood stove, or furnace. Over time your chimneys flue tiles can become crack or damaged and need repair or replaced. The most common method of repair for these chimneys is to install a flexible stainless steel chimney liner to ensure safely venting the harmful byproducts of wood, gas, and oil burning to the exterior of your home. Our certified chimney technicians are experts in chimney relining and frequently tackle this sort of job in Greene, Columbia, Dutchess and Ulster County NY.
Your chimney is constantly exposed to the elements leaving it susceptible to all sorts of water damage. Masonry work is porous so it can absorb moisture and fall victim to the vicious freeze and thaw cycles of the Hudson River Valley. Your chimney also has a crown/wash that is designed to allow water to run off the top of the chimney and prevent it from leaking into the masonry structure or the home. Chimney leaks are extremely common and can be quite frustrating to solve. It is imperative when dealing with leaky chimney repairs that you hire a company such as True Ventilation that excels in diagnosing and rectifying chimney leaks.
