Keep Your Home Safe

Chimney Repair

Chimneys play a crucial role in venting fumes and smoke safely from your home, making their upkeep critical for a safe and comfortable living environment. At Lindholm Roofing, we specialize in delivering expert chimney repair services that maintain the structural integrity and functionality of your chimney.

Loose bricks or crumbling mortar

These are telltale signs of potential structural issues. The mortar holds the bricks together and keeps water out. If you notice any loose bricks or crumbling mortar, it’s a clear sign that your chimney needs professional attention.

Water stains on your interior walls

This indicates possible leakage. If water penetrates the chimney, it can cause discoloration or damp spots on your interior walls, signaling a need for chimney repair.

Rusted firebox or damper

This suggests water intrusion. Water in your chimney can rust the metal parts like the firebox or damper. If these areas are rusty, you likely have a leak in your chimney that requires immediate repair.

White staining on the chimney exterior

This is known as efflorescence, and it hints at excessive moisture. The white substance is the mineral deposit left behind when water evaporates from the masonry.

Unusual drafts or smoky smells

These can indicate a blocked flue. When the flue is blocked, it prevents smoke from escaping, which can lead to smoky smells or drafts in your home.

Maintain Structural Integrity

Parapet Walls

Parapet walls serve multiple purposes, acting as both a safety feature to prevent falls from rooftops and as an architectural design element that enhances the appearance of a building. At Lindholm Roofing, we deliver superior parapet wall services, where we strive to strike the perfect balance between structural integrity, safety, and design.

parapet wall

Cracks or gaps in the walls

These are indications of potential water infiltration. Water can get into these spaces, leading to more significant damage and potentially weakening the wall’s structure.

Noticeable leaning or bulging

This suggests structural instability. If your parapet wall is not straight or is leaning outward, it may need repairs or reinforcement.

Peeling paint or efflorescence

These are signs of water damage. If water penetrates the wall, it can cause the paint to peel or efflorescence to occur, indicating the need for waterproofing or other repairs.

Loose or missing bricks

This can be a warning sign of potential risks. Bricks that are loose or missing can compromise the wall’s structural integrity and safety, indicating the need for prompt repair or replacement.

Prevent Water Damage

Masonry Waterproofing

Protecting your property from the damaging effects of moisture is vital in maintaining its longevity and aesthetics. This is where our masonry waterproofing services come into play. At Lindholm Roofing, we are committed to offering durable and comprehensive waterproofing solutions that effectively seal your masonry work, keeping water and moisture out.

Dark, damp spots on the masonry

These suggest water penetration. If your waterproofing is failing, water can seep into the masonry, leaving behind dark, damp spots that signal the need for waterproofing repairs or replacement.

Visible cracks or fractures

These are signs of structural stress. Cracks in your masonry can allow water to seep in, compromising your waterproofing and possibly causing more extensive damage over time.

White powdery substance (efflorescence) on surfaces

This signifies water exposure. The white powder is a mineral deposit left behind when water evaporates, indicating that water has penetrated the masonry.

Blistering paint or peeling wallpaper inside the property

These signs suggest that moisture is seeping into your walls from the outside, indicating a failure in the masonry waterproofing. It’s crucial to address these issues promptly to prevent further damage.
