Here's what we most often find and resolve for Richardson homeowners.
A natural byproduct of burning wood, creosote builds up in the flue lining and becomes a serious fire hazard if not removed regularly.
A compromised draft, creosote blockage, or obstructed flue can push smoke back into your living space.
Deteriorated flashing, crown cracking, or masonry gaps allow moisture to penetrate the system.
Thermal cycling and age cause mortar joints and brick faces to crack over time.
Improperly installed or aging flashing allows water to penetrate at the roof-chimney junction.
