Is Your Chimney Ready For Santa?

This homeowner got the memo about prepping her chimney for Santa!
This Richmond homeowner reached out to RETEX in July 2025 for a roof replacement estimate. After meeting with RETEX’s Andy Connor, she decided to go forward with us for replacing her roof and repointing and recapping her chimney, the latter of which is showcased here. We took care of both the chimney and roof in September.
Chimney repointing fixes the mortar seals between the bricks of your chimney. Even the best mortar seals last about 25-30 years. If left unattended, you may end up with a leaky chimney and, worst-case scenario, a structural collapse. On the other hand, repointing your chimney will give you at least 25 years of peace of mind.
