Repairing what the wind loosened

Wind works on the fasteners first

Wind rarely tears metal in the middle. It pulls at the edges and the fasteners, lifting a cap or chase cover where it is held. Once a corner lifts, each gust works it further.

That is why fastening is the first thing we check on metal parts. A cap still in place may have loose bolts or a bent band. A chase cover may have lost screws along one side. Refastening a sound part is often enough. A part bent out of shape needs replacing, and we explain which case applies.

Stains that appear days after the storm

Some leaks show up days after a storm. Water soaks into masonry or framing and then works its way through to an interior finish. The stain appears long after the rain has stopped.

A late stain still points to the chimney if it sits near it. Tell us when it appeared and whether it has grown. We check the chimney top and faces for the entry point. The repair is chosen once the path is clear, not from the stain alone.

A family-owned team after the storm

We are a family-owned, locally owned company. The people who inspect your chimney after a storm explain what they found, part by part, before any repair is agreed.

After a storm, many things around the house need attention at once. We try to make the chimney part clear and simple: what happened to it, what it needs and in what order. If you want to see a damaged part before it is replaced, we show you. If a question comes up later, you know who to ask, and you get a straight answer.

What a storm inspection cannot see

Some storm damage is hidden from view. Cracks inside a flue lining, wet framing behind siding or water inside a wall may not show from the roof or from the room.

The estimate separates what was visible from what was out of sight. If a hidden condition could change the repair, we say so and explain what would reveal it, such as opening a small area or a closer look down the flue. The plan then already accounts for the likely surprise, and nothing is added to the job without your approval.

Storm repair items, temporary and permanent

  • Masonry and mortar at the top courses
  • Fasteners matched to the cap metal
  • Crown cracks sealed or crown recast
  • Damper checked for water and debris

After the storm, what people ask

Is it safe to use the fireplace after a strong storm?

Not until the chimney has been checked. Wind can move a cap, crack a crown or shift masonry without any sign from the room. The national standard for chimneys calls for a closer look after an event likely to have damaged one.

Can you say whether the storm caused the damage?

We describe the condition we find and what it suggests. Appearance alone does not always show when damage happened, so we keep older wear apart from fresh damage on the estimate and do not go beyond what we can see.

What if my roofer also needs to work around the chimney?

We coordinate so the flashing and the roof covering go in the right order. Roof covering work belongs to your roofer. Our estimate shows which chimney items we cover and where the two jobs meet.
