West Freehold has specific conditions that cause chimney problems. The freeze-thaw cycles, nor'easters, and aging housing stock all take a toll. Here are the most common issues we see and how we fix them. If you need chimney services West Freehold, we handle all of these.
Why it happens here
The crown is the concrete top of your chimney. It cracks over time due to freeze-thaw cycles and age. Once cracked, water gets into the chimney and causes leaks and masonry damage.
Our approach
We remove the old crown and pour a new one with proper overhang and expansion joints. We use chimney crown mix designed for New Jersey winters. We also apply a waterproof coating.
Why it happens here
Spalling happens when water gets into brick and freezes. The ice expands and pops the brick face off. West Freehold's cold winters make this very common on 1980s and 1990s chimneys.
Our approach
We replace damaged brick with matching units and repoint with refractory mortar. Then we apply ChimneySaver water repellent to prevent future spalling. This stops the cycle.
Why it happens here
Flashing seals the gap between your chimney and roof. It rusts or pulls away over time. Nor'easters can also damage flashing. When flashing fails, water leaks into your home.
Our approach
We remove old flashing and install new copper or aluminum step flashing. We seal it with high-quality caulk. We also check the roof shingles around the chimney and replace any that are damaged.
Why it happens here
Burning wood creates creosote, which builds up on the flue walls. If not cleaned, it can block the flue or cause a chimney fire. Many West Freehold homeowners skip annual sweeps.
Our approach
We sweep the flue with chimney brushes and rods. We use a HEPA vacuum to capture dust. We also inspect for damaged liner and nesting animals. We recommend annual cleaning to prevent buildup.
Chimney repair needs change with the seasons in West Freehold. Fall is our busiest time as homeowners prepare for winter. Spring is for repairs after winter damage. Summer is for proactive maintenance. Winter brings emergency calls. Here is what to expect each season.

Summer is the best time for proactive chimney maintenance. The weather is mild, so we can do masonry repairs without rushing. We also install new liners and caps during summer.
Tip
Book your annual chimney sweep and inspection in summer. You will beat the fall rush and have your chimney ready for winter.
Fall is our busiest season. Homeowners want their chimneys cleaned and inspected before the first fire. We also see a spike in chimney cap repair after early nor'easters. Schedule early.

Winter brings emergency calls for chimney leaks, blocked flues, and smoke problems. Cold snaps can cause masonry cracks to worsen. We offer 24/7 emergency service for these issues.
