Key chimney components require careful inspection. Flashing, the metal strips sealing the chimney-roof junction, is checked for gaps or damage that could cause leaks. The chimney crown, the concrete slab atop the structure, is examined for cracks that allow water penetration. The chimney cap is assessed for security and effectiveness in keeping out rain, debris, and animals. Techniques used by a certified chimney inspector include visual checks of mortar joint integrity and looking for brick spalling (surface flaking), common issues in RI due to freeze-thaw cycles. Certified Chimney Inspections employs these methods to give Bristol homeowners a precise understanding of their chimney’s condition, promoting timely maintenance. This focus helps maintain your system provided by Certified Chimney Inspections.
