What This Means for Your St. George 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?

St. George is part of Richmond County, where half of all homes were built before 1974 and 17.8% date from before 1940. About 80 nights a year drop to freezing here, so a crown crack or loose flashing in St. George rarely stays small for long. With 46.6 inches of rain and melted snow a year, a chimney cap and a sound crown are what keep water out of the flue.
