Half of the homes in Bernards Township were built before 1987, and 4.1% 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 137 freezing nights a year in Somerset 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.
