What This Means for Your Pennington Chimney
Older homes, older flues
Where homes date from before the 1940s, chimneys often have clay tile flues, soft lime mortar or no liner at all, and decades of freeze and thaw open the joints. A yearly inspection catches cracked tiles and failing mortar while the fix is still small. Read: What Is a Clay Flue Liner?

Half of the homes in Pennington were built before 1956, and 33.4% date from before 1940, so many chimneys here still run on original clay tile or unlined brick, and mortar joints that old need repointing on a schedule. With about 109 freezing nights a year in Mercer County, water that gets into a crack freezes and widens it again and again, which is why we check the crown and flashing on every visit.
