Chimney cleaning and timely repairs can go a long way in extending the life of your chimney. But chimneys don’t last forever, and when they fall into states of significant disrepair, chimney rebuilding services are in order to keep your home and everyone living in it safe.
Various things can go on with a chimney and its components to signal the need for repair work. These include:
In these and similar cases, basic chimney repair can fix, seal or replace problem areas and components and restore soundness to the chimney.
If neglected for many years or if severe weather or seismic events have happened, a chimney may be damaged to the point only partial or complete rebuilding will allow you to safely keep using your fireplace.
Magic Mountain’s masonry experts carry certifications from the Chimney Safety Institute of America and the National Fireplace Institute. These credentials confirm that the holder has demonstrated exceptional skill and knowledge in the areas of chimney rebuilding, chimney repair, chimney sweep and other important disciplines.
Once severe damage has begun in a chimney, it will only keep getting worse until a dangerous living and operational environment exists. Ongoing water damage is a common problem that causes greater and greater decay of internal and external bricks until the entire chimney structure is prone to collapse.
A single strike of lightning, an earthquake or a violent hailstorm can be enough to significantly compromise the structure of a chimney, depending on its age and condition. Additionally, a chimney that has gone many years without proper inspection and cleaning can be damaged at a level that only chimney rebuilding can address.
