Chimney Repair for Lebanon chimneys
Lebanon's older homes have brick chimneys laid in soft mortar, many with flues that have served several fuels over the years. Freeze-thaw has eroded joints and cracked crowns, and flues that now vent gas or oil appliances may be oversized or unlined. Newer homes in the borough have masonry or prefabricated fireplaces with their own maintenance needs.
Asset Roofing & Chimney inspects, cleans, repoints, rebuilds and relines chimneys throughout Lebanon borough. We rebuild crowns, install caps, replace flashing and chase covers, waterproof masonry and install stainless-steel liners. We are licensed and insured, and estimates are free.
Lebanon housing
Lebanon's housing is a small mix: 1800s and early-1900s village homes with steep roofs and brick chimneys in the historic core, plus mid-century and later single-family homes. Along Route 22, commercial and office buildings have flat or low-slope roofs. Asphalt shingle dominates on the homes.
Weather & exposure
The borough sits in rolling country near Round Valley's ridges, and wind reaches it across open land and the reservoir area. Winters bring snow and freeze-thaw cycling, which work on old brick and flat roofs alike. Mature trees shade the older streets and drop limbs and leaves into gutters and valleys.
Repair, repoint or rebuild in Lebanon
For older masonry, repointing, a rebuilt crown, caps on every flue and a breathable water repellent prevent most rebuilds. If the upper courses are badly spalled, we rebuild from a sound level and match the brick as closely as we can.
Any flue serving a heating appliance or a fireplace you use should be inspected, and lined if it is oversized or deteriorated. We also check the roof flashing at the chimney, which is where many leaks actually begin.
