"We had major problem with our chimney and with the cold weather we wanted to get our wood stove back on line. I was very nervous about "Chimney" companies because I had heard so many horror stories, but this company was awesome! Sarah was great, professional, listened to what I had to say and quickly addressed my issue, I had someone here within 6 hours! Nate and Antonio were more than professional. Got the job done right the first time. I will actually be using this company for additional work to be performed. Price was reasonable, no complaints here 5 Star rating! Awesome job guys!"

"Chimney experts was very professional in both scheduling and the job. Al was very thorough to not only look at the chimney, but also to stay with me until we had fully built a fire and had it burning long enough to run a full test of the appliance. Would highly suggest for inspection and installation- they know the business well."

I own and operate a family business. What you see and who you meet and hire is who will be doing the work. I work myself with my son and my wife and 1 loyal guy I've had since day 1. I've been in this line of work for 25 years doing projects of every type specializing in cabinets, trim and higher end work, meticulate jobs and also exterior work. I do all types of finish carpentry, trim d, doors , wi dows , wall repairs and many other tasks. I am considered the very top of the line among all the painting community in the area. Very professional, accommodating and extremely neat and clean. Countless referrals and pics. I've been busy the past few years without advertising or taking g on new work just from repeat customers, regular yearly scheduled work, word of mouth and the couple builders I work for but lately the travel is getting too much for me as the builders are starting to get farther away so im currently taking on new work\n.

Chimney Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

Homeowners insurance does not usually cover roof soft spot repair. Since this damage is usually caused by wear and tear and often found on aging roofs, your insurance claim will likely be rejected. If a soft spot develops due to damage from a storm, repairs may be covered, but in general, expect to pay out of pocket for soft spot repairs.

Annually, or after major storms, to assess any potential damage.

You can put a green roof on a regular house with a compatible slope. Green roofs are best suited for flat or gently sloped roofs, as steeply pitched roofs can make the installation and maintenance of the green roof challenging. Flat roofs can support the weight of the soil and plants and ensure effective drainage.

Some people prefer to use connectors consisting of galvanized metal to replace the birdsmouth cuts on the rafter board. Common names for these metal pieces include hurricane ties and variable-pitch connectors. Making birdsmouth cuts is more cost-effective than purchasing these connectors for each rafter. However, because making large birdsmouth cuts to accommodate extra-wide exterior walls can weaken the rafter, a connector may be the better option in some cases.

While you can technically install new roof sheathing over an old layer, it is generally not recommended for several reasons. Installing new sheathing over old can trap moisture, which may lead to future problems, especially in humid climates. It also adds significant weight to the roof structure and prevents you from inspecting the original sheathing for rot, mold, or other damage.

However, in some cases, if the old sheathing has been thoroughly inspected and is in excellent condition with no signs of rotting, warping, or damage, a roofer may install new sheathing over it to add strength and stability. Despite this, the more common and recommended practice is to remove the old roof sheathing entirely before installing a new layer, as removing it is not a difficult task.
