Egg Harbor Township, NJ -- (SBWire) -- 05/01/2015 --Although it is spring, New Jersey homeowners may still be using their chimneys due to unusually chilly weather. Many, however, may be unaware that improperly maintained chimneys are a potential risk. To reduce the risk of fire and other hazards, Davis Brothers Chimney Sweep and Complete Masonry recommends that homeowners repair and clean their chimneys.
Davis Brothers Chimney Sweep and Complete Masonry has provided expert liner repair and chimney restoration to Atlantic County and surrounding areas for five decades. Chimney liner that is inadequate or in disrepair is one of the leading causes of potentially deadly chimney fires. Older chimneys may be lined with clay tile that inevitably breaks down over time, resulting in corrosion and cracks that can eventually lead to smoke damage, noxious smells and house fires. Other chimneys may have no liner at all, which further increases the risk of house fires and prevents smoke from adequately exiting the house. Whatever the case, Davis Brothers Chimney Sweep and Complete Masonry can install a stainless steel chimney liner that greatly improves chimney function and lasts for years.
Even if homeowners do not have a faulty chimney liner, they should still regularly inspect their chimneys. According to the National Fire Protection Association, chimneys should be cleaned and inspected once a year, no matter how infrequently homeowners use them. Davis Brothers Chimney Sweep and Complete Masonry will inspect homeowners' chimneys for free and assess if there is any damage or need for cleaning. If homeowners wait too long, they may have to endure the process of tearing down and rebuilding a chimney rendered obsolete by excessive damage.
