Chimneys are responsible for acting as a vent to remove smoke and gases from your home. The mortar between your bricks on the chimney can begin to crack and crumble over time because of the constant exposure to the outside elements. If your cannon is damaged, moisture can enter the chimney, leading to costly repairs such as a chimney collapse. Chimney Repointing is recommended to prevent these problems from happening.

What Is Chimney Repointing?
Chimney repointing is fixing the mortar joints between the bricks of your chimney. Over time, the mortar joints will begin to break and crumble. When this happens, the mortar must be repaired to have a good seal between the bricks of your chimney.
What Can Happen If My Chimney Is Not Repointed?
When you notice the mortar on your chimney is falling apart, it is best to get it repaired immediately to avoid expensive damages. Repointing a chimney is necessary when you see that the mortar joints are beginning to crack and crumble. If the mortar is not repaired, there is a risk that your chimney will allow moisture inside. This can result in further damage to your chimney and home and even the collapse of your chimney.
