What This Means for Your Flatbush 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?

Flatbush is part of Kings County, where half of all homes were built before 1943 and 47.1% date from before 1940. About 66 nights a year drop to freezing here, so a crown crack or loose flashing in Flatbush rarely stays small for long. With 47.1 inches of rain and melted snow a year, a chimney cap and a sound crown are what keep water out of the flue.
