"The recent winds in Fontana ripped my chimney cover and it was just hanging up there and making noise with the slightest wind. I called on Wednesday and Richard from Madison air called me right away. He came out on Thursday and replaced my chimney cover that day. They were early and it took about an hour. I have a 3 story house. Richard and his employee were very nice and explained everything to me. He even check the fireplace for me giving me some tips regarding the placement of the logs and other things. Cost wise I have nothing to compare it with but was okay with the amount, especially since they came right away. Didn’t want birds to build a nest or any other animal to get in there. Yes, I would recommend Madison Air. If you need anything done regarding your chimney, call them. Thank you Madison Air!!!"

"Jose was prompt, courteous and professional. His knowledge of prefab fireplaces is extensive and he even found a flaw in the original installation and repaired it. I would recommend him to anyone needing repairs. I would also rate his work with 5 stars, which this review wouldn’t let me do."

Chimney Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

While it’s technically possible to repoint a chimney without scaffolding, it’s not recommended, especially for taller chimneys. Scaffolding provides a stable platform that allows for safer and more precise work. Without it, you might find yourself in a risky situation, and the quality of the repointing could suffer.

The most obvious and severe sign of a roof leak is the presence of wet spots on your ceilings, specifically on the top floor of your home. You can also identify a roof leak from your attic if you see sagging insulation or if you notice mold growth or water stains on the rafters or the underside of the roof deck. From the street, look for cracked or missing shingles, moss growth, and shingles that are curling upward, all of which can suggest a leak.

Many insurance policies will not cover a roof with two layers of shingles. An additional layer of shingles increases the risk of various kinds of damage, and insurers typically won’t pay claims on a roof with an overlay. Adding a layer of shingles may even jeopardize your insurance coverage entirely, so check your policy to ensure you stay within coverage guidelines. 

If you’ve had a recent weather event or any other issue that caused roof damage, there’s a chance your caps are damaged also, and it’s worth having an inspection done to see if you need roof ridge replacement or repair. You should also keep an eye out for caps that are visibly deteriorating or curling. Here are more signs to look out for:

  • Cracks or gaps 

  • Discoloration

  • Water stains on the ceiling or walls inside

  • Missing shingles

If you have a vented roof ridge, you may also need repair or replacement if you have sudden issues with indoor humidity.

If the bay window extends beyond your existing roofline, you must add a roof or a small “skirt” to divert storm water and prevent water damage. The window roof can match your existing house roof, or be finished with copper or other decorative materials. Most bay windows have a roof with complete flashing regardless of their placement to prevent leaks into the home.
