"In May of 2023 I hired All County Maintenance to inspect and repair my chimneys. Peter was amazing - the work included fixing some broken chimney bricks, replacing the old mortar between all bricks, and installing brand-new stainless-steel... Then I had him back in August to mortar my whole chimney. Amazing job."

"Peter was professional and thorough. Although we both forgot that it was a holiday, he came as promised. The vent finish looked good. I just needed the vent or roof border done as the wind was blowing water through. Evidently, the nails form the metal finish were rusted. He said, although nothing will get through, if for some reason it does just call him. So. this makes me feel even more confident that he/they stand behind their work."

"Shamrock Maintenance Corp. did an excellent job cleaning and inspecting our wood burning stove. The technician arrived on time, was professional, and explained everything clearly before starting the work. They made sure the area was protected and left everything clean once the job was completed. I appreciated how thorough the inspection was and the time they took to answer our questions. It’s hard to find reliable service these days, but they definitely delivered. Highly recommend."

"Very professional matter of fact no nonsense guy. Does not pull any punches. Tells you want you need to do and does it. Does not rush the job. Further more you do not have to stand there and make sure he does his job, you can just tell right from the start hes going to do what is in your best interest. I already told him to come back once a year and clean the chimney and inspect it. I don't care what he charges. Id rather not burn up in my sleep.Thanks JOE your a breath of fresh air in today's society."

"Overall great experience. We noticed their lower cost monitoring systems are vulnerable to smash and grab robberies but the middle and upper range packages are protected from this. We also have had a few bugs with the broken glass detector but overall the sytem appears to be a great value.

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

If your roof has a vapor barrier, you will need approximately one square foot of roof vent for every 300 square feet of ceiling space. If there is no vapor barrier, the roof should have one square foot of roof vent for every 150 square feet of ceiling space. If you are not comfortable making this determination, a local roofing professional can help.

There are several signs that indicate you’ll need new underlayment. Clear signs include missing or damaged roofing and exposing the underlayment to the elements. Additionally, if you notice water damage in your home by the roof after a storm, it could indicate that your underlayment may need to be replaced. If your gutters aren’t draining properly, it could also lead to rotting or water damage to the underlayment.

To maintain a slate roof and prolong its lifespan, conduct regular inspections, ideally annually, or schedule professional inspections. Key maintenance includes cleaning gutters regularly, promptly replacing any broken or damaged tiles, and ensuring the flashing remains intact to prevent leaks. It is also recommended to remove overhanging tree branches and address minor issues as soon as they appear.

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.

Eaves will last as long as the roof, often 15 to 30 years or more, depending on the type of roof. Since eaves are part of the roof, their life span will depend on the roof's condition, although they can still be damaged by faulty gutters or pest damage, shortening their longevity.
