Fireplace
Fireplaces are timeless additions to homes that bring warmth, charm, and a cozy ambiance to any space. They serve as focal points within living areas, creating a welcoming atmosphere and providing a source of heat during the winter months. In New England, where cold winters are a common occurrence, fireplaces have long held a special place in family gatherings and seasonal traditions.

In addition to the many benefits fireplaces bring, it's important to be aware of common construction defects that can affect both the fireplace and chimney. These defects may impact the performance, safety, and efficiency of the fireplace system. Here are a few common issues our inspection crews watch out for:
1. Cracked or damaged flue liner.
2. Inadequate clearance to combustible materials on all sides and underneath.
3. Improper chimney height or design.
4. Damaged masonry or mortar joints.
5. Insufficient or obstructed chimney cap.
6. Poorly functioning damper.
It's important to have regular inspections and maintenance performed by qualified professionals to identify and address these and other potential defects. Proper care and upkeep of fireplaces and chimneys ensure not only their longevity but also the safety and enjoyment of your home.
