About Madison

The Luke Miller House at 105 Ridgedale Avenue, built around 1730, is thought to be the oldest home still standing in the borough.

Utility gas heats about 87% of occupied homes in Madison and electricity about 10%.

Madison includes the historic districts Madison Civic Commercial District, Bottle Hill Historic District. Older brick chimneys there often need matched brick and mortar, so we look at the house before we plan the work.

What This Means for Your Madison 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?

Gas boilers and water heaters

Gas appliances burn cleaner than oil, but their exhaust is wet. In an old masonry flue that water condenses, breaks down mortar and flue tiles, and shows up as white staining or crumbling brick. A liner made for gas protects the chimney. Read: Does a Gas Water Heater Need a Chimney Liner?

Half of the homes in Madison were built before 1959, and 24.1% date from before 1940, so a good share of chimneys here were built to older standards, with clay tile liners and crowns that are now decades old. With about 124 freezing nights a year in Morris 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.
