Chimney Repair & Sweep in St. Peters, MO
St. Charles County · Almost entirely 1975–2000, built fast
St. Peters went from a village to one of Missouri's larger cities inside a single generation, and nearly all of its housing went up in the same twenty-five years. That gives the whole city an unusually uniform chimney problem: what looks like a brick chimney from the street is usually a framed and sided chase with a metal firebox and a metal flue inside it. There is no masonry to repoint and no crown to rebuild — the part that fails is the flat metal cover on top of the chase, and when it rusts through, water runs straight down inside the chase where nobody can see it. Because the houses went up together, they are reaching that point together.

Why Greater St. Louis chimneys take such a beating
St. Louis runs through roughly 40 to 50 freeze-thaw cycles a year. Water soaks into brick and mortar, freezes, expands, and splits it apart. This is the single biggest cause of chimney damage in the region.

Chimney Cap Installation
A chimney cap is a metal cover with mesh sides that sits on top of the flue. It keeps out rain, animals and debris, and stops burning embers from landing on your roof. It is the cheapest part of a chimney and it prevents the most expensive problems.
