Repair, repoint or rebuild in Clinton Township
On a subdivision home with a prefab fireplace, we replace rusted or ponding chase covers with properly sloped, sealed covers, reseal the storm collar, rebuild the chase flashing at the roofline and check the chase framing and siding for water damage. The factory fireplace itself and its metal flue should be inspected before heavy use, especially if the home has changed hands.
On masonry chimneys, early crown repair, a cap and repointing prevent most rebuilds. After masonry repairs we recommend a breathable water repellent. If you burn wood regularly, have the flue inspected and cleaned annually; creosote builds in masonry and prefab flues alike, and a liner sized to a stove insert improves draft and reduces buildup.
