How Long Can I Put Off Chimney & Fireplace Repair Services?

The short answer: Not long…and it’s risky to wait.

Chimney and fireplace issues don’t always feel like a big deal because these structures have a strong reputation for being strong and sturdy. But even small problems can lead to serious safety hazards or costly repairs if ignored. Small cracks in the masonry, deteriorating mortar, missing chimney caps, damaged flue liners, or malfunctioning dampers can all allow heat, smoke, water, or even carbon monoxide to enter your home. Not to mention, these issues also make your chimney more vulnerable to moisture damage, mold growth, and structural instability.

What if you don’t use your fireplace much? Can repairs wait in these cases? We don’t encourage this. Even an unused (or rarely used) chimney can still cause problems, especially if it’s letting water in or allowing cold drafts and pests into your home.

If an inspection or a sweep has revealed the need for repairs, it’s best to address them before the next burn season begins or before weather conditions might cause further deterioration. And the longer you wait, the more extensive and expensive the damage may be to address.

Yorklyn, DE Chimney Company: Depend On Us

We’ve been blessed to work with valued clients in Yorklyn through the years – and to visit some of the community’s unique destinations, which have a lot to offer whether you’re interested in nature, history, industry, or the arts. A few we tend to point visitors include:

• Auburn Heights Preserve: A Delaware State Park site, the 200-acre Preserve includes trails and natural beauty, as well as some historic buildings that offer tons of interest.
• The Auburn Heights Mansion: We build, maintain, repair, and restore masonry structures just about every day, so seeing masonry that’s been standing for hundreds of years – and looking at the workmanship that went into that longevity – is always something we love making the opportunity to do. In Yorklyn, there’s the 6,000-square-foot Queen Anne–style stone Auburn Heights Mansion, built in 1897 and still standing strong. The stonework and the architecture are quite the sight, whether you’re a masonry professional or just a local who wants a peek into the lives of the locals who came before us.
• The Marshall Steam Museum: The Marshall Steam Museum offers insight into “the magic age of steam and life at the dawn of the automotive age,” with a collection of operating Stanley steam cars. But it’s a fun stop even if you’re not a history buff since you can take rides on the Auburn Valley Railroad!
• Center for the Creative Arts: With classes and events that span from crafts to a theater performance, this organization has a lot to offer Yorklyn residents, whether young or old.

If you live in Yorklyn and have been on the hunt for a chimney company you can count on, we hope you’ll look toward Ace Chimney Sweeps – our owner, Skip Creswell, started his career in this area back in 1986, and in the time since he’s shaped Ace Chimney Sweeps into a company that focuses on quality work and the kind of dedicated customer service our neighbors deserve. We also serve North Star, Newark, Wilmington, Elsmere, Kennett Square, and more.
