Neglecting to have your chimney or fireplace assessed can have significant and life-altering consequences for both you and your home. Chimney deterioration is a common occurrence due to constant exposure to precipitation. Like a sponge, masonry chimneys absorb and release water, leading to the breakdown of bricks and mortar over time and resulting in a leaky chimney.
A leaky chimney can cause various issues, including discoloration of bricks, rusting of chimney and fireplace parts, mold growth, and unpleasant odors. These water-related problems are not exclusive to masonry chimneys; prefabricated chimneys can also experience leaks that yield similar results. Therefore, even if your chimney is not in use, it is essential to have it inspected regularly to ensure your safety and prevent costly damage to your home.
Fortunately, you can take proactive measures to avoid unforeseen circumstances stemming from a neglected chimney. Allstar Chimney Cap Saraland is ready to assist you in scheduling your annual inspection today, providing you with peace of mind that your chimney poses no threat to you and your home.
Breathe Clean Air
Chimney blockages can have severe detrimental effects on the air quality in your home. When smoke is unable to escape through the chimney, it reenters your living space, posing a significant risk to your lungs and overall health. Additionally, wildlife such as birds or squirrels can obstruct proper ventilation, creating hazardous conditions for both you and the animals.
Moreover, the waste produced by these animals can carry respiratory diseases, further compromising the air quality in your home. Allstar Chimney Cap Saraland Teams are equipped with the necessary expertise and training to safely remove animals from chimneys and perform thorough chimney cleaning. Hiring a professional is undoubtedly the most effective and perhaps the only solution to address air quality issues caused by your chimney.
Sealants, Which Is The Best?
When observing a home from the street, you may notice a chimney positioned on one side. While it may not be the most prominent feature, it still catches the eye. However, due to the chimney’s exposure to fluctuating weather conditions, such as scorching sun and freezing-thawing cycles, there is an increased risk of cracking. Additionally, existing gaps or holes in previous sealants can contribute to water damage, particularly affecting your home.
Although bricks are generally sturdy, they have the tendency to absorb significant amounts of water. To safeguard against damage caused by moisture and water, the most effective measure is to apply a robust sealant. By blocking any potential entry points with a strong sealant, you can prevent water-related issues and protect your home.
Types of Sealants
Silicone:
- Rapid curing time
- Provides a delicate finish
- Not ideal for high-traffic areas
- Prone to abrasions
- Works best on materials like metal, glass, and tile
- Suitable for use in all temperatures, including cold weather
- Lifespan of 20+ years
Polyurethane:
- Takes over 24 hours to fully dry
- Results in a hard finish
- Performs well in high-traffic areas
- Resistant to abrasions
- Works best on wood surfaces
- Challenging to apply in colder temperatures and weaker bond when cold
- Long-term durability
