Why Repair My Chimney?
Chimneys are designed to work together with a fireplace or furnace to safely and efficiently expel gas and dangerous fumes from your home. There are several parts that make up your chimney system, including the masonry, liner, flue, hearth, and damper. When a single part of your chimney ceases to perform its intended function properly, the chimney becomes unsafe.
Carbon monoxide poisoning, smoke inhalation, and fire are several of the risks you run from using a damaged chimney. Other dangers of a heavily damaged fireplace are structural, such as falling bricks and water damage caused by cracks and leaks. Vortex Restoration is an expert at pinpointing problems with chimneys and rectifying them. Call us today to receive a free quote!
