Is Your Chimney Leaking?
Most people don’t know that there are many parts to a chimney system that can allow water in. These weak points are different depending on if it’s a masonry chimney or factory-built chimney. Most parts of the chimney degrade with time, UV rays from sunlight, hail damage, and the freezing and thawing of typical Colorado weather. There are usually several suspected weak points when there are signs of water intrusion; but it can be challenging identifying exactly where the water is coming in from. Often, where the signs of water damage appear is not indicative of the leak’s actual location.

What is better than a warm fire on a cold night? A real wood fire is sensational: the flickering of the light, the smell of the logs, the crackling and popping sounds. For this reason, many homes in our communities were built with wood burning fireplaces as an amenity.
