"When we bought our house, our neighbor (who's lived on the same street for 70 years) said he couldn't recall a time our fireplace had ever been used for a wood fire, and indeed the entire chimney was falling apart above the roofline. So we knew it would be a big expense to get it up-and-running. We didn't want to go with the wrong company. Every friend we asked came back with the same recommendation: Reece's is simply the best in town. We got a quote, saved up, and then called them to schedule the work this May. They hit on all cylinders: flawless work, excellent customer service, punctual, didn't leave any mess, and came in beautifully under-budget. It was also immediately clear to me that Travis and his team were genuinely good people. Of course, anyone can put on an appearance in a conversation with a customer, but how they interacted with each other throughout the two days they worked on our chimney made it abundantly clear that they truly respected one another and knew how to work together like a well-oiled machine. That's when good work gets done; that's when quality is consistent. I don't often write reviews, but I know how much it meant to me and my wife to have the right people on a job like this, and I hope other folks will make the same solid choice."

"So over the last 30 years we tried to hire someone to fix our chimney damper. In that time this was the only company that came back twice lol. (Seriously, those in WNC know the struggle about companies quoting repairs and hired only to never be heard from again) The repair was not easy, but he offered a unique solution. They were reasonably priced. Communicated effectively. I would absolutely recommend Blueridge Chimney to anyone."

"My home has a chimney that was unsafe to use (cracked masonry liner). I dreaded the time and cost of a tear down and replacement. I contacted "Shamrock Chimney" and scheduled an appointment with their lead technician "Tony". He suggested a less costly and safer alternative (steel liner and a resealing of the outer brickwork. The work was performed over a two-day period. I am fully satisfied with the results. One thing I really apricate is the communication during the project. The "front office" would let me know by either phone or email when the project would start, and then Tony and would give me updates. All and all the whole process went smoothly. Also, this was my first time with "Angi", I hope to use their services again in the future."

Chimney Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

It's important to consider your home's condition to see if it's fit for the extreme stress of being lifted. There are two different methods typically used during lifting a house: raising or underpinning. While both are tried-and-true ways to lift a house, your home will likely withstand some disruption to walls, floors, and ceilings like cracking drywall.

Asphalt shingles have varying thicknesses across the length, so failing to stagger shingles from one row to the next will leave you with bulges and bumps if the thicker sections stack on top of each other. Not only is this unappealing, but it increases the risk of water intrusion. Stagger each new row by 6 inches to avoid this issue.

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.

Homeowners insurance may cover chimney leaks, repairs, or replacement, but coverage depends on the cause of the damage. If the chimney is damaged by a sudden, covered peril like a lightning strike, storm, hail, fallen tree, or an unexpected fire, your policy is likely to cover the costs. However, insurance generally does not cover damage resulting from normal wear and tear, old age, or a lack of proper maintenance, such as failing to perform regular cleanings and inspections. If a fire or other damage is caused by a known issue you didn't address, the claim may be denied. Additionally, some policies may have specific exclusions for events like high winds or earthquakes.

Most traditional lenders will not loan against a house with a leaking roof, and some lenders won’t lend against a home with a roof near the end of its lifespan. If the roof on your new home is in poor condition, you may need to have the seller offer a credit for a roof replacement after closing, or you can opt for a renovation loan—also called a 203k loan—to bundle the house and the roof replacement into one loan.
