About Media
Media borough has been the Delaware County seat since it was incorporated in 1850.
A 1940 state guide noted that nearly all of Media's houses had been built after the Civil War, set back on shaded lawns.
The 19063 ZIP code reaches well beyond the borough, covering places such as Rose Valley, Glen Riddle, Elwyn and much of Middletown Township.
The Minshall House, built around 1750 on Route 252, still stands in the borough.
Media includes the historic districts Courthouse Square, Lemon Street, Providence Friends' Meeting House District. Older brick chimneys there often need matched brick and mortar, so we look at the house before we plan the work.
We serve Media homes in ZIP code 19063.
What This Means for Your Media 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 Media were built before 1960, and 25.1% 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 77 freezing nights a year in Delaware 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.
