Chimney care for Philadelphia homes
Philadelphia has one of the largest stocks of pre-war rowhomes in America, many with shared party-wall chimneys and original clay or unlined flues. Converted furnace and water-heater flues are a very common issue here, and tight rooflines make proper flashing and caps essential.
From Philadelphia rowhomes to stone farmhouses in Bucks and Chester counties, Pennsylvania has some of the oldest chimneys in the country. Cold winters and frequent freeze-thaw cycles make yearly inspections and masonry maintenance especially important here.
