We Love Wellesley
Wellesley is known for offering a quieter suburban atmosphere, but its proximity to Boston allows residents and visitors to easily get a taste of big city living whenever they’d like – the best of both worlds! Known for its affluent residential neighborhoods, tree-lined streets, and well-maintained green spaces, Wellesley is really an idyllic place to live, so it’s no wonder so many flock there to buy a home and build a life.
What’s there to do in town? Wellesley Square is a must-visit area, offering tons of great shops and restaurants to explore. Elm Bank Reservation is another great spot to hit when the weather is right for some outdoor recreation, as are the cities extensive network of trails.
Or maybe going out isn’t on the agenda, and you just want to relax at home in front of the fireplace with your new library book. Make sure your fireplace is ready to light by working with us. Call 508-875-3874 or reach out online today.
Our Chimney Sweep Service List
How Do I Know if My Chimney Needs Repair?
There are several signs that may indicate your chimney needs repair. We recommend studying this list, then paying attention to any possible indicators, contacting us at the first sign of an issue. This ensures we have ample time address potential issues promptly (and before they worsen).
Here are common signs that your chimney may need repair:
- Visible Masonry Damage: Inspect the exterior of your chimney for signs of damage such as cracks, spalling bricks, or deteriorating mortar joints.
- Leaning or Tilting: If you notice that your chimney is leaning or tilting, it could indicate a structural problem that requires immediate attention.
- Water-Related Damage: Water stains on the interior walls or ceiling near the fireplace suggest a chimney leak. This could be due to damaged flashing, a cracked chimney crown, or deteriorated chimney masonry.
- Efflorescence or Discoloration: White, chalky stains on the exterior of the chimney can indicate water penetration and the migration of soluble salts. In addition, watch for green vegetation growth, red rust stains, or any other type of discoloration.
- Damaged Chimney Cap or Crown: A missing or damaged chimney cap or crown can allow water, debris, and animals to enter the chimney, leading to various issues.
- Smoke Inside the Home: If you notice smoke entering your home instead of going up the chimney, there may be an obstruction or drafting issue that needs to be addressed.
- Unpleasant Odors: Foul smells coming from your fireplace can be a sign of creosote buildup or other issues within the chimney. You could even have an animal trapped up there.
- Efficiency Issues: If your fireplace or stove is not functioning as efficiently as it used to, there may be a blockage, creosote buildup, or other issues affecting proper ventilation.
