Customer Concern: A homeowner in West Allis faced issues with a water leak originating from their chimney, which was no longer in use due to their home being equipped with high-efficiency appliances that do not require chimney venting. They were in need of our expert West Allis chimney removal services.
Assessment and Response: Our team at Smoke Stacks responded promptly, visiting the home within four days of the initial call to discuss the feasible options and perform a chimney inspection. After assessing the situation, we confirmed that the chimney was redundant and proposed removing it to prevent further complications.
Service Provided: The service involved a meticulous chimney removal process. We dismantled the chimney just below the roof line, where we installed a masonry fire stop to seal the old chimney cavity. The area was then framed and securely covered with plywood, followed by a seamless integration of the existing rubber roofing material over the newly formed surface to ensure a watertight finish.
Project Duration: Our team at Smoke Stacks showcased their efficiency and preparedness by completing the entire chimney removal and roof-over project in just one day. This swift turnaround time is typical for this type of job, reflecting our team’s expertise and commitment to providing prompt service.
