"Went very well. Scheduled it to check for any post-earthquake damage and fire hazards. Scheduling was easy--several weeks backlog to schedule an appointment, probably because of the Angie's List Big Deal customers, but it was not a problem at all. Technician showed up on time and did full inspection. While the deal also included a full sweep/cleaning, he did not need to do much cleaning because the fireplace had not been used much at all over the last year. He correctly identified this, and confirmed no damage or potential for leaks or fire hazards. He did some touch-up work at the top of the chimney, adjusted/fixed the cap, and recommended at some point doing some additional touch-up masonry work in the future, but did not try to pressure or scare us to buy any additional services. Technician was friendly, informative, and clearly seemed to know what he was doing and talking about. He was on time, did not rush through the inspection, and it was a positive experience overall. Would recommend them to friends/relatives. "
Solid brick structures can last a century or more, potentially 100 to 150 years with proper maintenance like tuckpointing. Without major repairs, classic red bricks may last 20 to 40 years. Brick veneer siding is also a long-lasting material, with a lifespan ranging from 50 to 100 years, provided it is properly installed and maintained. To maintain brick veneer, you should scrub it annually with a special detergent and a soft-bristled broom. It's also important to inspect the bricks and mortar regularly and hire a masonry contractor for any necessary repairs, such as fixing worn mortar or bowing bricks.
Rock salt and ice melts contain sodium chloride, aka salt, and are corrosive to metal and concrete. If used frequently over time, it can cause corrosion, discoloration, chipping, and cracking to patios, walkways, and driveways. You can try a rock salt alternative or hire a professional snow removal company instead.
Modern brick homes have a brick facade over standard framing and sheathing, so the brick offers minimal added structural stability. A home with traditional brick construction is more durable than a stick-built home, as the double-layer brick walls and rebar resist higher lateral wind loads and support heavier loads up top, as well.
The best way to clean creosote from brick is to hire a professional chimney sweep. However, you can use a creosote log to remove excess buildup between cleanings. You can also clean minor creosote buildup using dish soap or vinegar mixed with water.
Two types of masonry are veneer masonry and solid masonry. Veneer masonry is thin brick or stone material attached to the face of a building. With veneer masonry, the walls support the weight of the masonry products rather than the masonry being built on a concrete footing. Solid masonry is a wall or other brick or stone structure built on a concrete footing, and the masonry supports itself.
