What This Means for Your Dongan Hills Chimney
Postwar homes and their chimneys
Homes built in the postwar decades often have a brick chimney with a mortar crown that was never meant to last. After decades of winters, crowns crack, caps go missing and flashing lets water in. These are quick, affordable fixes when caught early. Read: What Should You Do About a Cracked Chimney Crown?
