On the bayshore side of Middletown the appointment worth booking is the one after a storm, not the one before a season. This is the most exposed work we do — nor'easters come straight off the water — so caps, flashing and crowns account for most of it, and a Level 2 inspection after a serious blow is the right call rather than a cautious one.

The short answer
Inland the work is ordinary seasonal sweeping. We cover both, and which one you get depends on which side of the township you are on.
Friction-fit caps gone entirely, because they do not reliably survive a serious blow on this coast. Flashing details that have failed years before they would have inland, because driven rain from the north-east finds any weakness in them. And crowns opening faster than anywhere else we work, because masonry that never fully dries between storms takes the freeze-thaw cycle far harder than dry masonry does. The pattern is consistent enough to plan around: check the cap and the flashing after each named storm, and deal with what you find before the freeze works on a saturated stack.

There was a lot of shaking in the chimney at night because the cap had come loose. They took it out and replaced it with a safe locking model, fixed the broken tile below, cleaned up the mess, and checked the…

The formation of water stains around the fireplace was prevented by repairing the flashing. The sealing seems to be well-done and secure. At last, weatherproofing feels solid. Thorough focus on detail.
After every named one, on the bayshore. NFPA 211 calls for a Level 2 inspection after any event that could have moved the structure, and a serious nor'easter qualifies. It is also far cheaper to find a lifted cap in November than a ceiling stain in February.
Then it needs replacing rather than refitting, with a locking cap sized to the flue. A cap that came off once in this exposure will come off again.
Noticeably. Inland it is ordinary suburban work — seasonal sweeping and the occasional crown. On the shore side, caps and flashing dominate and the timing of the visit matters more.
It is the edge of the range rather than outside it. Call and we will tell you honestly what the scheduling looks like instead of booking you and moving it twice.
