Looking closely at chimneys in Eatonville
Straight answers about chimney inspection in Eatonville, from the people who do it.
Brick faces that flake or come away
Spalling is the trade word for brick faces that flake, shed chips or break off in pieces. It tends to appear where water has been soaking into the brick for a long time. If pieces have landed on the roof or in the yard, keep one for us to see. We check which courses of your Eatonville chimney are affected, whether the damage sits on the surface or runs deeper, and which repair choices fit what we find. Brick that has lost its face absorbs water faster, so the damaged units are usually replaced before any coating is considered.
How the throat damper opens and closes
A throat damper sits just above the firebox and closes the chimney when the fireplace is cold. We work it through its full travel, check the handle and look for rust, warping and a plate that no longer meets its frame. A damper in your Eatonville home that sticks or will not shut lets air and insects through, and a warped plate can hint at past overheating. Your written findings say whether cleaning, adjustment or a new damper fits the problem. If the handle feels loose, the linkage may be worn instead of the plate itself.
Firebrick and the joints between the bricks
Firebrick lines a masonry firebox and takes the direct heat of every fire. We check the bricks for deep cracks, loose pieces and missing joint mortar, paying close attention to the back wall. Fine surface cracks can be ordinary wear, while open joints that expose the wall behind are a repair item. During the fireplace inspection in Eatonville we separate those two cases in writing, so you know which items call for firebox repair. Open joints are repaired with a heat-rated product, since ordinary mortar is not made for the inside of a firebox.
