"Finally got to enjoy our new homes fireplace: SAFELY! And this was all due to the care of Bricks Chimney Service. We were told that the fireplace was not used for the past 10-15 years. These guys came in and did their inspection. They took me through every step; showing me the obvious dangers of my fireplace and chimney. Came back, fixed the trouble areas, and we now enjoy our fireplace!!! Thank you Bricks!!!"

"Paddy's guys did the work and clean up the same day. They did such a great job that their foreman checked their work the same day instead of a week later. They charged a fair price for my tiny house. Will recommend every time!!"

"The service was fine. The only thing is that they were really late coming. So, it was like dark when they got out of here. They left the area good when they were finished. It took them an hour-and-a-half to complete the job. They sent me a picture of the chimney. The price was great. They did show up."

"I was contacted immediately by an office manager to set up an appointment. They were very prompt and on time. I feel they did a great job and a thorough inspection of my chimney! They showed me the poor condition of my chimney after cleaning and discussed ways to fix it. So I hired them to make the repairs,in which I could not have been more pleased with their work! Very professional company, and I would recommend them to anyone!"

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

Yes, your roof will leak if you have missing or damaged shingles. Severely damaged or missing shingles are essentially holes in your roof, leading to water seeping into your attic and ceilings. The underlayment underneath your roofing is a secondary form of protection, so you should fix shingle damage and replace missing ones as quickly as possible.

Yes, suggesting repairs, gutter cleaning, and sealing as needed.

Yes, you should seal and cap an unused chimney to protect it from damage. Sealing the structure helps prevent moisture damage, which can lead to issues like cracks, spalling, efflorescence, and damaged mortar joints. Capping the chimney is also crucial to prevent blockages, damage from invasive critters, and downdrafts, while still allowing for proper air ventilation to manage moisture. For the best results, consult a chimney professional to select the right type of chimney or flue cap for your home. It's also wise to continue with annual chimney inspections to maintain the structure's integrity.

Shingle damage comes in many forms, and the damage usually depends on the wind speed and the shape of the roof before the winds. Typically, when shingles are damaged by wind, they become torn, creased, or detached from the roof. Some might go missing entirely. More extensive roof damage might occur if a tree branch or other debris has fallen onto the roof as a result of the windstorm.

The number of roof vents necessary for a 2,000-square-foot house depends on several factors. The calculation depends on the net free area within the attic and whether your municipality requires a 1/150 or a 1/300 ratio of venting square feet to attic square feet. If you install vents with a square-foot opening of one, you'll need either 14 or seven exhaust vents and an equal square-foot amount of intake vents.
