Chimney sweep and repair in Beachwood, OH
Also covering Pepper Pike, Orange Village, Lyndhurst.
What we see on Beachwood chimneys
Beachwood runs to larger homes with multiple fireplaces, gas inserts, and in some cases chimneys that were converted or relined at some point in their history. Conversions are worth checking carefully: an insert put into a flue that was never resized for it is a draft problem waiting to happen.
What we get called out for most in Beachwood
Beachwood homes often have inserts or conversions added at some point in their history. An insert dropped into a flue that was never resized for it is a draft problem waiting to happen, and it takes an inspection to catch.
Chimney InspectionsWhy Ohio chimneys fail
Ohio's freeze-thaw cycle is what destroys chimneys here: water soaks into brick and mortar in the fall, freezes, expands, and breaks the masonry apart from the inside. Add a long heating season and you get creosote buildup on top of structural damage. More on Ohio.

What the work looks like
Our own photographs, from real jobs. Before and after where we have both ends of it.
Cracked crown, and the same crown after
The crown surface is unbroken again, sloped away from the tile and carried out over the brick.
New chase cover and cap
New cover fitted over the chase and the flue capped — the rust it replaced is still showing underneath.
Stainless liner run down the chase
The chase opened at the roof and a single length of stainless flex liner fed down it.
