What This Means for Your Bay Shore Chimney
Wind, rain and salt air
Near open water, wind drives rain sideways into the chimney and salt air corrodes metal caps and flashing faster. A sturdy cap and sound flashing keep water out of the flue and the masonry. Read: Does My Chimney Need a Cap?

Half of the homes in Bay Shore were built before 1963, and 18.5% 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 98 freezing nights a year in Suffolk 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.
