Chimney repair and chimney brick restoration using tuckpointing and other grout fixing methods is incredibly important in the Minnesota climate.

One major problem that people will start having is that a chimney that is cracked or the brick is coming apart, you might start having problems with water leaking behind the flashing between the roof and the chimney. When the grout requires Tuckpointing, or the overall chimney brick is starting to come apart, water can trickle down those cracks and start getting in between the flashing, particularly if the home is older and isn't up to the higher standards that we have today.
How much does it cost to repair the brick that is deteriorating around your chimney?
