🏠🔥 Chimney Charm: Tuck Pointing & Slope Caps Unveiled!

🧱 Ever wondered what keeps your chimney sturdy and smoke-free? Let's talk about tuck pointing and slope caps!

👉 Tuck Pointing: This is the art of renewing mortar joints in brick masonry. Over time, weather and decay wear down the mortar, but tuck pointing fills in those gaps, ensuring your chimney remains stable and aesthetically pleasing.

🔝 Slope Cap: Sitting at the top of your chimney, the slope cap (or crown) does more than just cap off the look. It's angled to direct water away from the chimney, preventing damage and keeping moisture out of the flue.

💦 Why do we do it? It's all about protection and longevity. Tuck pointing prevents structural damage, while a slope cap shields your chimney from water intrusion and weather wear.

🏡 Maintain these key components, and your chimney will not only look great but also stand strong for years to come!
