Chimney Repair Project In Green Bay, WI
In May of 2020, CertaPro Painters® of NE Wisconsin received the opportunity to repair a chimney with weather damage. The chimney was worn and had a consistent issue with moisture, causing brick delamination. Brick delamination is a case in which the brick begins to fall apart in layers. The loose brick and disfigurement required immediate attention to retain the integrity of the building. The professionals at CertaPro Painters® of NE Wisconsin are equipped to handle projects of this magnitude and have the experience in restoration to comfortably offer premium services.
CHALLENGES:
The condition of the chimney provided its own set of unique challenges. Brick delamination throughout the structure presented a task that required thorough repair for stability and a quality refinish.
Additionally, exterior restoration requires adherence to particular guidelines and specific equipment to complete the project, ensuring the safety of the staff.
CONDITIONS:
- Brick delamination – CertaPro repaired and replaced brick sections and reinforced them with quickset concrete.
- Moisture – Moisture was addressed with a primer and two coats of paint after strengthening the chimney’s integrity.
- Weathered finish – The finish required attention for a pleasing finish.
PROJECT INVOLVEMENT:
