Chimneys in Vails Gate, NY.
Vails Gate chimney repair — crickets, crowns, caps and flashing for ranch and split-level chimneys, minutes from our New Windsor shop.
Why hire us for chimneys in Vails Gate?
On the ranches and split-levels around Vails Gate, chimneys are usually short and exposed, sitting mid-roof on a low pitch where snow piles up on the uphill side. That snow melts slowly and works its way behind flashing that was never designed for it. Our fix is a cricket — a small peaked diverter on the uphill side — plus new stainless step and counter-flashing. We also rebuild cracked crowns and add caps. Because we’re so close, a chimney inspection can be combined with a roof or gutter estimate in the same visit.

- Crickets are added on the uphill side of wide chimneys to stop snow and water from pooling.

QUESTIONS
Common Chimneys questions in Vails Gate, NY
More questions? Call (845) 234-9871 or request an estimate — we don't believe in pressure sales.
What is a chimney cricket?
It’s a small peaked structure behind the chimney that splits water and snow around it. Chimneys wider than 30 inches generally need one under building code, and it prevents many leaks.
Do I need chimney repair if I never use the fireplace?
Yes. Unused chimneys still let water in through cracked crowns and failed flashing. A good crown, cap and flashing keep it watertight whether or not you burn fires.
Why do chimneys leak?
Most chimney leaks come from a failed crown, cap, or counter-flashing — not the roof field itself. We fix the source instead of smearing tar on the problem.
Do I need a liner?
If flue tiles are cracked or the fireplace or appliance vent is unsafe, a stainless liner is often the right fix without rebuilding exterior brick.
