Pratt's Professional Chimney Service

Comments

Today Pratt’s Chimney did service on my fireplace. Great professional company. Would recommend this company to anyone. Thanks for a great job Shawn.

We had a great experience with Pratt's! Our fireplace was built to burn or use gas, I grew up with natural, so Brad came out and capped off the gas, installed a new damper, and converted it to allow us to burn! We are so happy with the service, we will definitely use Pratt's again in the future.

We used Pratt's, and they were so patient in helping us understand everything. Veteran owned and awesome service. I recommend to others regularly.

When people think "chimney" their minds instantly go to "fireplace." Often we run into homeowners who are unaware that their appliances, (hot water heater, furnace, boiler, etc.) are venting up through the masonry chimney on their home. Over time, the gasses and condensation coming off of the appliances, paired with exterior factors such as rain/snow contribute to the deterioration of these chimneys.

Once you have a deteriorating masonry chimney, you run the risk of water intrusion, and potential blockage to the flue system causing the appliances to not operate appropriately. Running the risk of flue gasses coming back into the home.

By removing the masonry chimney, properly venting appliances into a stainless steel liner, connecting to a bvent pipe to extend out of the roof to code, allows us to convert to a low maintenance system, removing complications that are seen with masonry appliance chimneys.

If you are wanting or needing to convert or remove your masonry chimney prior to the colder weather that is just around the corner, give us a call to schedule your free estimate!

Chimney Chase Covers are your first defense against water leaking into your home via your sided/veneer chimney chase. Often fabricated with galvanized steel, over time the metal top will begin to rust and corrode. This will begin to prevent your chase-top from performing its' intended purpose in keeping rain and snow from entering your chimney chase.

When water and snow is able to enter your chimney chase it can open up a multitude of issues. Mold and mildew, deterioration of the wood chimney chase structure, rusting of your fireplace, and water damage to your home.

It is imperative to maintain annual inspection where your technician will be able to monitor or provide recommendation for replacement if/as needed.

Here at Pratt's Chimney, we focus on longevity of the repair. We install stainless steel chase-tops with cross bends, drip edges, and new storm collars. Using quality material allows us to provide a lifetime warranty against rust and corrosion on the stainless steel chase-tops that we install.

If you are noticing rust streaks on your chimney, a dripping sound or water leaking when it rains/snows, now is the time to call for your free estimate!

Warmer weather means our Masonry Repairs are in full swing! When masonry chimneys start to deteriorate, you may notice pieces of brick laying on your roof or falling onto the ground below, mortar joints starting to fall from between the brick or stone, and cracking of the masonry structure. Maintaining annual inspection, allows you to monitor the condition of your masonry chimney, especially in areas that are unable to be seen from the ground.

If you are noticing deterioration of your masonry chimney, leaks, efflorescence, or other signs that may indicate your chimney is in need of repair, give our office a call to schedule your free estimate!

Another successful B-vent conversion completed!
Unlined appliance flues can wreak havoc on the masonry chimneys they are vented into. If you are noticing deterioration of your masonry chimney the gas and/or moisture from your appliances may be to blame! This can cause not only structural damage to the chimney, but internal deterioration can impact the appliance's ability to properly vent.
If you are noticing deterioration on your appliance chimney, we would be more than happy to schedule a technician to stop out and provide a free estimate!

With the heavy rains we experienced earlier this week, leak calls were at an all time high! If you have a sided chimney, your chasetop is the first level of protection from the outside elements. When they begin to rust, pinholes can form within the metal structure and allow moisture to enter your wood chase causing leaks within the chase and moisture to enter the home.

We install stainless steel chasetops with cross bends and drip edges, to allow water to run away from the venting pipes and prevent standing water on top of the chimney chase.

If you are aware of rust formation, are experiencing a leak, or noticing staining down the side of your chimney don't hesitate to give us a call for your free estimate!

Hello, my name is Steven Pratt. My wife Heather and I are the founders and owners of Pratt’s Professional Chimney Service. After serving 10 years of honorable service in the U.S. Navy, I decided to try something new. My children were getting older and I was missing out on large parts of their childhood. Being stationed at Naval Station Great Lakes, we found we loved the area and wanted to stay.

After thinking of an interest in work, I found an opening at a local chimney service company owned by a fireman. After working for him for 5 years he decided to retire. Loving what I did, I wasn’t ready to give it up so I decided to start my own company. I have always treated people and lived by the same principles that made me a very successful member of the U.S. Navy.

I instill these principles in every employee; I believe that if we are honest, work hard, operate with integrity, and genuinely care about other people, you will find success in whatever you chose to do in life. In return, this has led to great success for our family owned business.
