If your chimney was knocked down in a storm, or in an earthquake, it can be frustrating to figure out what to do with it. You may want to get it rebuilt as soon as possible, and try to do it yourself. There are, however, a number of reasons that you should refrain from rebuilding it yourself, and instead hire a chimney rebuild service to take care of it.
The know-how that a chimney rebuild service can offer is the most significant reason to hire them. They could rebuild your chimney in a way that it is safe to use, and add anything to it that may need to be there, such as fireproof or soot-proof chemicals, and the like. The service would most likely know what is or is not up to fire safety code, so they could rebuild your chimney accordingly.
One reason is, of course, the time. It takes time to gather the bricks and purchase mortar, then climb on top of the roof and start putting the chimney back together, piece by piece. You may have other responsibilities, including work or children, and rebuilding a chimney can take a while. Hiring a service of trained men with the proper supplies could drastically shorten the time taken to rebuild the chimney, as well as the time in which critters may be sneaking into your chimney while it is open.
Lastly, it is a dirty, potentially risky job to have to piece a chimney back together, as soot, as well as possible insects and/or small animals may have been inhabiting the chimney, and now have free-roam. So, why not let the professionals take care of it? Hire a chimney rebuild service so that the professionals, who know proper precautions, can take care of the chimney so that you don’t have to risk breathing in anything possibly detrimental to your health.
If you are ever in a situation where your chimney was destroyed, hire a chimney rebuild service as quickly as possible. You won’t have to worry about wasting your day for it, risking your health, or being unsure if you did it correctly. It is an extra expense, but at least you can rest assured that a professional job will be done. Arrow Roofing and Siding Inc is a good place to start.
