About Phoenixville
Phoenixville was long the home of the Phoenix Iron Works, which stopped making iron and steel by the mid-1980s.
The Phoenixville Historic District, created in 1987, is the largest National Register of Historic Places site in Chester County.
The Colonial Theatre, open since 1903, appears in a scene of the 1958 film The Blob.
Phoenixville includes the historic district Phoenixville Historic District. Older brick chimneys there often need matched brick and mortar, so we look at the house before we plan the work.
What This Means for Your Phoenixville 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 Phoenixville were built before 1971, and 28.1% 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 131 freezing nights a year in Chester 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.
