Is Your Chimney Asking for Some TLC? Common Signs to Watch Out For

Worried about the state of your chimney? Keep an eye out for these telltale signs that it might need some attention:

  • Cracked or Damaged Brickwork: This can weaken the chimney structure and allow water to seep in.
  • Damaged Flue Liner: The flue liner protects your home from dangerous gases. If it's cracked or damaged, it needs immediate repair.
  • Leaking Chimney: Water leaks can cause significant damage to your chimney and surrounding areas.
  • Damaged Chimney Crown: The chimney crown is a cement slab that covers the top of the chimney, preventing water from entering. Damage here will let water in.
  • Mortar Deterioration: Cracked or crumbling mortar joints indicate the chimney is getting weak and letting water in.
    If you spot any of these issues, don't delay! Contact APX Roofing for a comprehensive chimney inspection.

"APX Roofing is who we hired to do our roof inspection prior to buying our home. They discovered a couple of minor issues which enabled us to negotiate a better price from the seller. Their attention to detail and knowledge saved us money in the long run!"

Korbin Marcel

"When our slate roof was losing tiles, we weren’t sure whom to trust to repair it. APX Roofing was recommended to us by a friend, and we couldn't be more happy we called them. They matched the new tiles with the existing, making it look as good as new. Excellent service!"
