Poway CA Chimney Repairs | Your Local Chimney Experts in North San Diego County
If there’s something wrong with your chimney, the time to have it looked at is now, not later. Chimney trouble often begins small, but it can progress rapidly and affect many parts of the system.
Chimney Sweeps Inc. serves Poway, CA, with expert chimney repairs covering your entire chimney system. Here are some of the ways we can get your chimney back into great shape.
Masonry Chimney Repair
When chimney bricks begin to crack and spall, and when the mortar begins to crumble away, you could be looking at a chimney that leans or collapses entirely before too long.
Our trained chimney repair masons replace damaged bricks and add strong, new mortar through a process called tuckpointing. We can then waterproof the entire masonry surface for years of protection against rain damage.
Chimney Liner Repairs with Thermocrete
A cracked or split chimney liner is dangerous for your Poway, CA, home. Intense heat, flames and deadly combustion gases can escape a damaged liner and cause multiple problems.
The solution to most liner issues is Thermocrete, a spray-on coating that instantly seals cracks and holes while maintaining the original and correct flue diameter. Chimney Sweeps Inc. specializes in Thermocrete chimney repair for chimney liner systems throughout Poway, CA, and all of North County.
Chimney Crown Repair and Rebuilding Poway CA
Cracks and deterioration in a concrete chimney crown can lead to chimney brick damage and allow water and debris to move into the chimney. We patch damaged crowns, and we completely rebuild them when the damage is severe.
Chimney Cap and Chase Top
We fix and install chimney caps and chimney chase tops to protect flues from rain and debris. Issues with these protective devices can lead to widespread water damage, small animal infiltration, buildups of tree debris and major drafting problems.
Chimney Flashing Replacement
Our Poway, CA, chimney repair team replaces damaged chimney flashing to protect the space between the roof and chimney from damaging rain.
Smoke Chamber Parging
Smoke chambers, located just above the firebox, are designed to smoothly channel smoke up into the chimney. Cracks and jagged edges can hinder drafting and allow flammable creosote to build up. We provide smoke chamber parging to smooth out the chamber’s surfaces and restore efficient operation.
Chimney and Firebox Rebuilding
When major structural damage is present in a chimney or firebox, we know how to get it repaired correctly and in compliance with state and local code regulations. We rebuild chimneys and fireboxes of all shapes and sizes.
Rampart General Chimneys
Chimney Sweeps Inc. is among the few professional chimney companies in North County approved to work on damaged Rampart General chimneys. Popular in Southern California in the 1970s and 1980s, Rampart Generals are single-piece chimneys that were erected on-site. The company that made them is no longer in business.
Because of their design, fixing damage to them is very difficult and, in most jurisdictions, unlawful. If you have a Rampart General chimney at your Poway, CA, home that needs service, call the experts at Chimney Sweeps Inc.
