Homeowners in East Rochester, NY, and throughout Monroe County, New York, rely on the chimney repair experts at Felgemacher to get their chimneys in shape and keep them that way. We’ve served the village of East Rochester, NY, since 1953. Here’s how we can help you when you’re facing issues with your chimney.
Chimney Repairs Done Right
No two chimneys are the same, so we begin all chimney repair work for our East Rochester, NY, customers with a complete chimney inspection with video scanning. The repair and rebuilding work we perform is done in a way that meets local and New York State code requirements.
Chimney Masonry Repair East Rochester NY
Damaged bricks and crumbling mortar can lead to major water intrusion and structural instability in a chimney. We replace cracked bricks and strengthen decayed mortar joints with a fresh new compound. The result is a sturdy chimney that looks fantastic.
Chimney Crown Repair and Rebuilding
Cracks in the crown of your East Rochester, NY, chimney can send water and debris into hidden areas of the system. A deteriorated crown can also lead to brick deterioration below the crown. We patch minor cracks and completely rebuild chimney crowns when damage is severe.
Chimney Liner Repair and Replacement
Our chimney repair work often involves addressing problems with chimney liners that could allow flames and deadly combustion gases to escape. Damaged clay tile liners often can be resolved with HeatShield, a process that relines the inner flue with a strong protective coating. In other cases, we can reline the chimney with a powerful stainless-steel liner to provide years of reliable protection.
Chimney Cap Repair and Installation
A damaged chimney cap on your East Rochester, NY, chimney can open the way for rain, snow, tree debris and small animals to get into the flue. The problems only get worse from there. We repair minor chimney cap damage; for major damage, we install new full-width chimney caps that protect both the flue and the chimney crown.
Chimney Chase Top Repair and Installation
Chimney chase tops function similarly to chimney caps to guard against water and debris. When a chase top is damaged, rain and snow can get into the system and cause widespread leaking and deterioration of the chase structure. Debris can create a blockage and make smoke and combustion gases back up. We repair and replace chimney chase tops.
Chimney Repair Inspections
Before starting any chimney work for our East Rochester, NY, customers, we perform a thorough inspection that includes a video scan. This will tell us what’s happening and the best way to fix it. A chimney inspection may also turn up other issues that need to be addressed.
