When it comes to chimney repair, Nayaug is the one to trust. Our professional crews are ready to bring your chimney back - looking and working the way it was intended to. Masonry repair, carpentry and finish work all can be involved when major repairs to a chimney system or installation of a new fireplace insert is called for.
Chimney repair can involve many areas, it may only involve a portion of the system - or it can also require extensive rebuilding. Bricks and mortar do wear over time and deteriorate. Water is the main enemy of a healthy chimney. Once water gets in, the problems begin. Proper chimney inspection, water repellent and repairs as needed extend the life of your system. If you are experiencing any problems with your chimney, fireplace or furnace venting system, call Nayaug. We will be happy to come out and give you a professional written assessment and estimate if work for chimney repair if it is recommended.

| The facing of your chimney bricks may flake off and open the whole brick to the elements creating structural problems and leakage. If you see any brick falling into the chimney or around the chimney outside on the roof you need to get the situation evaluated as soon as possible. White stains on the outside of your chimney is called efflorescence and indicates that water penetration and leaching salts are present. When mortar begins to deteriorate, the joints can be raked out and weathered joints can be "repointed" or filled with new mortar. This process is often called "tuckpointing", and can prevent water from getting in between the bricks and cracking them apart. To guard against the weathering that will wear down your masonry chimney, waterproofing by applying a water repellent coating to the exterior chimney structure. Another common repair area is the crown on top of the chimney. This cement slab tops off many masonry chimneys and is also subject to the elements that create cracking and deterioration. If the crown is not keeping water out, it will seep down into the bricks causing further damage. Many times simple crown sealing can remedy a problem. A complete crown rebuilding is called for when the chimney crown has lost too much of its structural integrity. If a deteriorating crown is left unchecked, the repairs will be much more costly. As always, regular chimney inspections save money by spotting small problems before they become a major cost and safety issue. Flashing, which is the metal wrapping around the chimney where it meets the roof, is another common repair location. The flashing can lift or open up, requiring re-caulking. Your firebox may also be in need of repair if you have cracked bricks or mortar in the area that you place the wood in when making your fire. The high temperatures in this area can require rebuilding with firebricks and high temp mortar. And of course, one of the most important components of your chimney system is the lining. The lining delivers the toxic gases out and away from your home and needs to function properly otherwise you may be risking your health and safety. Chimney relining is a very common repair that can add decades to the function of your chimney and fireplace by adding a new chimney liner. |

This customer in Glastonbury picked the right time to bring his dog outside. While outside of the home, he noticed a bright glowing with sparks coming out of the corner of the wooden chimney enclosure. Immediately he knew there was a serious problem and emergency fire services were called. They got to the scene before a major fire started and the home was spared serious damage. This is NOT the way to detect problems! A thorough inspection of this chimney system would have revealed that there was a problem with the chimney insert.
For this chimney repair, we needed to remove the entire chimney insert from the outside and replace it with a new one. All carpentry and finish work was taken care of by Nayaug Chimney Services and we had the new system installed quickly with minimal intrusion into the home itself.
