What This Means for Your Elmsford Chimney
Winters are hard on masonry
Cold winters with many freeze and thaw cycles work water into brick and mortar every year. Keep the chimney swept and inspected once a year, keep a cap on top, and fix small cracks before they spread. Read: How Often Should a Chimney Be Swept?

Half of the homes in Elmsford were built before 1959, and 33.3% date from before 1940, so many chimneys here still run on original clay tile or unlined brick, and mortar joints that old need repointing on a schedule. With about 109 freezing nights a year in Westchester 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.
