We Perform The Best Masonry Repair Services In Indianapolis!
With about 125 days of precipitation a year, and temperatures typically ranging from the 20s to the high 80s, weather in Indianapolis can be tough on masonry. And it’s not just the weather that can take its toll – heat and byproducts from the fire can also negatively impact masonry. Common signs of masonry distress and damage include crumbling and cracking, efflorescence, vegetation, gaps, holes, and spalling. Have you noticed any of these signs on your chimney or fireplace? If so, Your Chimney Sweep is the company to call. We have decades of masonry repair experience and can restore the safety, function, and beauty of your hearth and chimney once more.
Common Masonry Repairs We Perform
No matter what your masonry repair needs are, we can help! Some of the most common masonry repairs we perform include:
- Crown Repair & Replacement – The crown at the top of your chimney takes quite a beating year after year, and since it serves such an important purpose, it’s imperative that you keep it in great condition. Whether your crown was poorly constructed or just needs some minor crack repair, we have the tools, products, and experience to get the job done right. Click here to learn more!
- Firebox Rebuild – The firebox of your fireplace is responsible for hosting the fire itself, which can be a pretty taxing position to be in! Over time, the heat can cause the firebox to crack and deteriorate, which renders it ineffective at keeping the heat, gases, and byproducts of the fire safely contained. If you’ve noticed cracking or other signs of deterioration in your firebox, don’t light another fire without making proper repairs! Click here to learn more!
- Smoke Chamber Parging – The smoke chamber is the area just above the firebox that connects the firebox with the flue. This area acts as the gateway for smoke as it begins its journey up through the chimney and out of the home. Unfortunately, smoke chambers often undergo damage over time, and may end up with jagged edges and other features that negatively impact smoke and air flow. If your smoke chamber could use a little TLC, we can help! We provide expert smoke chamber parging services to restore the smooth surface of your smoke chamber. Learn more here!
- Waterproofing & Flashing Repair – Once repairs are made to your masonry, we can apply a professional masonry waterproofing product which will help protect your masonry from future damage. We also specialize in flashing repair, and can help make sure your flashing is doing its job to keep water out of your chimney system and home. Click here for more information!
