Types of Chimneys in Scituate
Masonry Chimneys
Masonry chimneys, built from brick, stone, or concrete, are a popular choice for their durability and classic look. However, they are susceptible to issues such as mortar deterioration and brick spalling. Regular inspections and maintenance are necessary to address these issues and ensure the longevity of your masonry chimney.
Prefabricated Metal Chimneys
Prefabricated metal chimneys, made from stainless steel or aluminum, offer modern advantages such as easy installation and low maintenance. Despite their durability, they require periodic inspections to ensure they remain in good working order and continue to function efficiently.
Factory-Built Chimneys
Factory-built, or prefab chimneys, are pre-assembled and installed at your home. These chimneys are designed for efficiency and ease of use but still require regular inspections to ensure they perform safely and effectively.
