For Chimney Repairs in Yreka, Trust the Professional & Friendly Crew at Holy Smoke, Inc.

Operating a chimney that is damaged not only leads to a less efficient and more unpleasant fireplace experience… It can also be dangerous! Gaps and holes throughout your masonry can send dangerous fumes and even flames into your home, and if any of your chimney components (like your chimney cap or flashing) are rusted or broken down, you’ll be inviting a whole slew of problems there as well.

Because of this, the sooner you invest in any necessary repairs, the better, and you definitely won’t want to put your system to use if damages are present. Chimney damages are something that should always be promptly addressed, because neglect will only cause them to worsen over time.

In the end, don’t let what could be a relatively easy (and affordable) fix turn into a big, expensive, and time-consuming repair job. Call on us right away and stress less!

What Chimney Repairs Services Does Holy Smoke, Inc. Offer?

So, what chimney repair services do we offer? Here’s a quick rundown.

• Tuckpointing: Tuckpointing is the process of removing old, crumbled mortar joints and replacing them with new mortar materials. Matching in composition and color is essential here, so this definitely isn’t a DIY job! Call on a pro to get the best-looking and sturdiest results possible.
• Crown Repair: A broken down crown leaves the sides of your masonry chimney much more vulnerable to water damage. Rather than travel down the sloped edges of the crown and away from your brickwork, rain, snow, and sleet will simply roll down the sides, soak into the masonry, and wreak havoc. If your crown is damaged or made from an inferior mortar mix, get us on the job to get things where they need to be.
• Flashing Repair: Your chimney flashing consists of metal pieces that protect the area where your chimney and roof meet. Because these two areas are made from different materials, they expand and contract at different rates, making this spot especially vulnerable to water leaks. Without flashing in place, you’ll quickly notice damaged brick, staining on your walls & ceiling, rotted woodwork, and more. But we can make repairs quickly and effectively.
• Waterproofing: If you’ve spent money investing in masonry repairs, then getting waterproofing services completed is a must. Otherwise, water will simply continue to soak into your brick and mortar, and you’ll be investing in the same repairs again shortly down the line. Waterproofing provides a protective, vapor-permeable seal that keeps your system protected for the long haul.
