One
of the most problematic thunderstorms are that of spring season. The
high winds, harsh rainfall and often the pounding hail makes it tough
for roof and chimney to stay tough without any TLC. Many homeowners
believe that it is the roof that takes the brunt of the harsh weather
but that is not true. Along with the roof a chimney also falls prey
to the rough thunderstorms. The expert of chimneys
repair and cleaning in Hampton Bays advise
the homeowners to make the repairs on their roof and chimney after
the winters and before the monsoon season to ensure that your home is
safe.
If
you are worried about your chimney getting damaged due to the
weather, here are a few things that you should know chimney damage
and where to look for them:

for damages carefully
Looking
for damages mean that you have to climb the roof. However, the
experts often advise the homeowners against it. For inexperienced
person climbing on the roof is extremely dangerous and can harm you.
The experienced chimney repair man also take huge precautions to
ensure that they are not hurt (especially after a huge storm).

you still have to check the damage of your chimney, do it from the
ground. Check for any debris that might have fallen from the chimney
and if you find something, call the repairmen immediately.
Cracks
and Chips in Your Chimney

of the common things that happens after a storm is cracks and chips.
Post storm, look for the cracks in your chimney or any debris that
might have chipped away from the chimney and fallen in the yard. The
cracks and chips lead to the leakage in the structure of the roof
which can damage the home. If you see any kind of discoloration in
the bricks, then it is the clear sign of water damage. Make sure you
call an expert and get it checked out immediately.
