Question 1

How do I know if my chimney needs repair?

Accepted Answer

Warning signs include: white staining (efflorescence) on exterior brick, crumbling mortar joints, water stains on your ceiling near the chimney, cracked crown or cap, visible daylight through the flue, or a musty smell from your fireplace. A CSIA Level I inspection will identify all issues.

Question 3

Can chimney repairs be done in winter in Maryland?

Accepted Answer

Minor chimney repairs, flashing fixes, and liner work can be done year-round.

Emergency structural repairs are handled any time of year.
