Common Chimney Issues in Gaithersburg

Crown Rebuilds on Olde Towne Brick Chimneys

Kentlands and Washingtonian homes feature direct-vent gas inserts needing annual safety inspections, burner cleaning, and CO verification.
Stainless Relining for Wood-to-Gas Conversions
Many Gaithersburg homeowners convert wood-burning fireplaces to direct-vent gas. Properly sized stainless steel liners prevent condensation damage.
ChimneySaver Waterproofing on Aging Brick
Older Gaithersburg brick chimneys benefit from ChimneySaver vapor-permeable waterproofing with 10-year warranty to stop further freeze-thaw spalling.
