Common Chimney Repairs

For many homeowners, the idea that something would go wrong with their chimney seems odd. After all, they are made from brick and mortar, often making them the sturdiest construction in the whole house. But there are quite a few problems you might encounter.

Damaged or Missing Caps

Most Cleveland chimneys feature a cap at the top of the flue. This is meant to stop rain, animals, and debris from getting into your chimney and accessing your home. When working properly, this should not stop smoke from exiting. If it is damaged or missing, it can cause harm to your home and health.

Masonry Damage

While this is not all that common, it does occur. Out of the possible problems a chimney can develop, it is also among the most devastating. Typically, this occurs after severe weather, such as a tornado, though settling foundation can also cause cracking.

Flashing Damage

Since your chimney protrudes through the roof of your home, it creates an opening where water can seep into your house between the wood and the chimney. Flashing is used around the chimney to prevent this from happening. If damaged, you can end up with leaks that harm your home.

Damaged Flue Liner

When the flue liner is damaged, smoke, heat, and even flames can get outside of the chimney and fireplace, causing damage to your home and even leading to carbon monoxide poisoning. Your flue liner will need to be fully restored for safe use.

Signs You Need Chimney Repair

In many cases, the signs of a chimney problem are easy to spot—you see that it isn’t perfectly straight, or that the cap is missing. In other cases, the signs may be more subtle, especially at the start. Some indications that you need Cleveland chimney repair include:

Smelling smoke in your home, even after a fire has been extinguished
Fires that don't seem to burn correctly
A damper that does not move easily
Crumbling brick falling into the fireplace or on the roof
Visible damage at the mortar joints
Rusting in the firebox
Shaling flue tiles
Cracks in the crown
Missing cap
Tilt in the chimney
Wall damage around the chimney and fireplace

Great service and very attentive to my needs. I can not recommend using the carpet cleaning service enough, they are fast, efficient and effective. My carpets look amazing! There are spots I messed with for over a year that he was able to pull right out (I know it might be the case for everyone). They also came in over a 100$ less than the last time I had my carpets cleaned!

Green and Clean came out to my house the other day for a chimney cleaning and inspection and air vent cleaning for the whole house. He was very professional, friendly, and did a great job! He did notice some pretty serious issues with both of my chimneys (I didn't even know I had 2) and swapped out a cap which makes our home much safer. One can be repaired and I will have him back out to repair it. The other has much bigger issues, unfortunately. We have about 14 vents in the house and it took roughly 3.5 hours to complete everything. The inspection included video of the chimneys and what needs to be repaired. Highly recommend. Will have back out.

The technician was very friendly and showed us before and after cleaning the vents to make sure we were satisfied. He walked through how to change the air filters and which ones to buy. I would recommend this service to anyone looking for a vent cleaning service.
