Obvious Signs that Your Chimney Needs RepairFor more than 20 years of performing chimney repair services in and around Fairfield County, we’ve seen all the common signs that something within a chimney system needs to be repaired or replaced. You can watch for these signs in your own chimney.
There’s a breach in the masonry or in a component, and the leak will continue to get worse.
Seismic events, weather events or plain old age may have caused the cracking, which can lead to major water damage in the future.
Could be decay due to water intrusion, old age or a poor-quality mortar compound used to build the chimney.
Foul odors likely are the result of water/moisture in the flue.
Water could be entering the home through damaged chimney flashing or in other areas.
The flue could contain drafting obstructions or the house may be too air-tight.
A clear sign of significant damage to the bricks or the mortar or both.
If the fireplace is drafting well, dangerous carbon monoxide could be moving into the home due to a cracked or broken chimney liner and interior masonry damage.

Some chimney issues take a little investigating to determine the cause and the location of the problem. Leaky chimneys are a good example: you may know there’s water in your chimney system, but you may not know exactly how it’s getting in and where the center of the damage is.
