Summer is the quietest time for chimney work, making it the perfect opportunity to schedule repairs without the seasonal rush.

Getting your maintenance done while the weather is dry ensures you are ready the moment the first chilly night arrives.

Frequently asked in Huntsville

What is the average cost to repair a chimney?

Is chimney repair covered under homeowners insurance?

In Huntsville, homeowners insurance typically covers chimney damage if it results from a sudden and accidental event, like a fire or a severe storm. Routine maintenance or repairs due to normal wear and tear are generally not covered. It's always advisable to review your policy details or contact your insurance provider for clarification on your specific coverage.

What is the 3 to 10 rule for chimneys?

The 3 to 10 rule is a common safety guideline for chimneys. It states that the chimney should extend at least three feet above the point where it penetrates the roof and be at least two feet higher than any part of the building within a ten-foot radius. This helps ensure proper drafting and prevents fire hazards. Adhering to this rule is important for safe chimney operation in Huntsville homes.
