Our comprehensive chimney repair services include:

Chimney Liner Repair or Replacement

United Roofing & Chimney offers specialized chimney liner repair and replacement services designed to safeguard the efficiency and safety of your chimney system. Understanding the critical role a well-functioning liner plays in the proper venting of smoke and harmful gases, our team employs advanced techniques and high-quality materials to address any liner issues.

Whether your chimney liner shows signs of wear, has suffered damage, or requires a complete overhaul, we're equipped to diagnose and implement the most effective solution. Our expertise extends to both repairing existing liners to extend their life and replacing them with new, durable liners that meet the latest safety standards.

Chimney Flue Repair

Our flue repair service involves a thorough chimney inspection to identify any cracks, blockages, or signs of wear within the flue lining. This assessment is crucial for determining the extent of damage and the most effective repair strategy. Utilizing advanced techniques and materials, such as heat-resistant flue liners, sealants, and resurfacing compounds, we meticulously repair any identified issues. These materials are selected for their durability and ability to withstand the high temperatures and corrosive gases encountered within the chimney.

In cases where the flue is severely damaged or outdated, we may recommend relining the chimney. This involves installing a new liner made from stainless steel, ceramic, or another approved material, offering a long-term solution that enhances the chimney's functionality and safety.

Chimney Crown Repair

This important service involves a detailed evaluation of the crown's condition to identify all damage extents. For minor cracks and wear, we employ high-quality, weather-resistant sealants and concrete repair materials to fill in gaps and restore the crown's surface. This not only seals the crown against future water intrusion but also reinforces its structural integrity.

For more severe damage, where the crown is beyond simple repair, we undertake a comprehensive replacement process. This includes removing the damaged crown and constructing a new one using durable materials designed to withstand extreme weather conditions and thermal expansion. Our technical approach ensures that the new chimney crown is properly sloped to facilitate water runoff, reducing the risk of water penetration and extending the lifespan of your chimney structure.

Flashing Repair

We offer a professional flashing repair service to address and rectify issues with chimney flashing, a critical component for preventing water leakage where the chimney intersects with the roof. Our service begins with a thorough inspection to assess the condition of the existing flashing, identifying any signs of damage, premature rusting, corrosion, or improper installation that could compromise its effectiveness.

Based on this evaluation, our skilled technicians proceed with the necessary repairs, which may involve resealing the flashing with high-grade sealants, replacing rusted or damaged sections, or completely reinstalling the flashing system to ensure a secure, watertight seal. Employing the latest techniques and materials, our flashing repair service is designed to restore the integrity of your chimney's waterproofing barrier, ensuring long-term protection against water damage.
