Signs You Need Professional Chimney Repair in Central Ohio
Central Ohio's frequent temperature fluctuations between freezing and thawing create ideal conditions for chimney damage. The freeze-thaw process occurs when water enters small cracks in chimney masonry, freezes and expands, then thaws, leaving progressively larger damage.
Watch for these warning signs in and around your home:
Rust on damper or firebox Signs of moisture infiltration.
Spalling bricks
Fragments or flakes breaking away from brick surfaces, especially. after winter.
Animals entering Damaged chimney caps or screening.
Cracked or missing mortar joints Particularly common after Ohio’s harsh winters.
Whitestaining Salt deposits indicating water penetration.
The cost of waiting
Each freeze-thaw cycle causes exponentially more damage, with minor cracks becoming major structural issues requiring complete rebuilds instead of simple repairs.
