Above All Chimney Speaks About Common Chimney Problems

 

Feasterville-Trevose, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/17/2016 -- Chimneys are commonly neglected in modern society. Small problems pile up and become larger hassles and even disasters that can cost homeowners time and money. Around Philadelphia, chimney cleaning specialist Above All Chimney & Masonry is providing full-service chimney sweeps and repairs to residents in need. The company is passionate and informative when working with clients. There are many common issues that the company encounters on a regular basis.

Having a damaged flue lining is one problem that Above All Chimney handles regularly. One of the causes for this is burning wood leading to creosote buildup, which is what forms when smoke goes up the chimney. It is a flammable substance, and it can cause house fires if not removed properly. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends that chimneys be inspected annually to make sure there isn't a creosote buildup in need of professional cleaning.

Another frequent finding by Above All Chimney & Masonry is that a high number of chimneys in Bucks County and Philadelphia are in need of brick and mortar replacement. Proactive or reactive repairs save clients more money as opposed to waiting until they need a completely new structure. Obstruction is one of the other common dilemmas that homeowners are faced with. If a chimney is blocked by trees, nests, and other objects, it can lead to carbon monoxide inside the home and even funnel smoke back into the home.

Some homeowners overlook the fact that homes using natural gas to heat their water and air require ventilation through pipes and chimneys. These chimneys require annual inspections to make sure they are in working order. Above All Chimney & Masonry recommends calling an experienced team of chimney sweeps around Philadelphia for Pennsylvania residents who suspect a chimney issue of any magnitude.
