Water penetration is the number one cause of chimney damage. Wisconsin's climate is tough on chimneys. Rain, snow and freezing temperatures can wreak havoc on a masonry chimney, causing cracks in the mortar and structural damage. All masonry chimneys are vulnerable to water damage. In fact, moisture is always present in a masonry chimney. For this reason, we recommend treating your chimney with a water repellent. As chimney professionals, part of our job is finding leaks and making repairs that allow a chimney to effectively fight off water.

To keep your flue from being an open tube to the outside world at all times, chimney systems are built with a damper. The damper is designed to block off the flue when you're not using your fireplace, and to keep you from wasting energy and money on conditioned air that would otherwise be lost. The damper also provides another level of protection against water intrusion, keeping any moisture that makes it into the flue from getting into the firebox. Like every other part of your chimney system, the damper's role is important, so if yours is, stuck, corroded or broken, it's important to have it replaced or repaired as soon as possible.

Part of the process of Chimney Doctor's complete chimney inspection is using a professional chimney camera system. This allows our service technicians to see exactly what is happening with your chimney from top to bottom. This technology allows us to observe the areas that are not able to be seen easily from a visual inspection and look much deeper at the condition of your chimney. The only way to know whether your chimney is structurally sound and safe is with an annual inspection. During an inspection, our certified chimney expert, will examine the entire structure to assess its condition.
