Chimney Repair in Evesham Township (Marlton), NJ | Monarch Roofing & Construction

Evesham Township, home to Marlton, has grown from farm country into one of Burlington County’s largest communities. Farms began selling to developers in the 1950s, the population nearly tripled between 1960 and 1970, and today about 46,800 people live in more than 18,000 homes. The township includes the locally regulated Olde Marlton historic district, neighborhoods such as Berlin Heights, Cambridge Park, Cropwell, Evesboro, Gibbs Mill, Milford, Pine Grove, and Tomlinsons Mill, and land that reaches into the Pinelands National Reserve. Monarch Roofing & Construction repairs chimneys across Evesham, from older homes in Olde Marlton to houses from every decade since.

That range of housing ages means chimney problems vary. Older chimneys in Olde Marlton may need compatible mortar and careful brick matching. Chimneys on homes from the 1960s and 1970s are now more than half a century old and often need new flashing, crowns, and repointing. Homes from the 1980s onward commonly leak at flashing details or thin crowns. Wooded areas toward the Pinelands add leaf and needle debris and shade. We evaluate your chimney and provide a free chimney repair estimate.

Chimneys by Era

Olde Marlton and Older Homes

Older chimneys were often built with lime-based mortar, which is softer and more breathable than modern mixes. Repointing them with hard cement mortar can cause the brick to crack or spall. We evaluate existing materials and use a compatible mortar, matching joint color and profile. Because Olde Marlton is a locally regulated historic district, check with the township about any review that applies before exterior work.

1950s to 1970s Subdivisions

The first wave of development brought thousands of homes in a short time. Their chimneys have now weathered fifty years or more. Typical issues include flashing reused through several roof replacements, crowns that have cracked apart, and mortar joints eroded on the weather sides. Most respond well to new flashing, a properly built crown, and targeted repointing.

Newer Neighborhoods

On homes built from the 1980s onward, the masonry is usually sound, but leaks can come from flashing that was not lapped correctly, counter flashing that was never set into the mortar, thin crowns, or wide chimneys without crickets.

Wooded Areas Toward the Pinelands

In the more wooded parts of the township, leaves and pine needles slide down roofs and gather behind chimneys, holding moisture against the back flashing and roof deck. Shade slows drying. A cricket, a screened cap, and sound mortar joints help these chimneys shed water and debris.

Chimney Leaks and Flashing

Chimney flashing includes step flashing interlocked with each shingle course, counter flashing set into the mortar joints and lapped over the step pieces, an apron at the front, and a cricket or back pan on the uphill side. Rusted flashing, loose counter flashing, missing crickets, and cracked roofing cement patches are among the most common causes of chimney leaks. We check the flashing along with the crown, cap, and masonry, because water entering higher up can run down inside the chimney.

Repointing and Brick Replacement

Repointing removes deteriorated mortar to a sound depth and replaces it with compatible new mortar. Spalled or cracked brick is cut out and replaced with brick matched as closely as practical, then the surrounding joints are repointed.

Crowns and Caps

The crown should slope away from the flue and overhang the brick so water drips clear. Thin or cracked crowns let water straight into the masonry. We repair minor cracks in sound crowns and replace failed ones. A chimney cap keeps rain, leaves, birds, and animals out of the flue opening and protects the crown.

Why Winter Is Hard on Chimneys

New Jersey winters bring many nights below freezing followed by milder days. Each time water soaked into a mortar joint, a cracked crown, or a porous brick freezes, it expands slightly and pushes the masonry apart. One cycle does little; dozens of cycles every winter, year after year, add up to eroded joints, widening crown cracks, and flaking brick. Snow piled behind a chimney adds meltwater that tests the uphill flashing for days at a time. Closing up open joints and cracked crowns before winter, and making sure the uphill side of a wide chimney has a cricket, are some of the most effective steps you can take to slow that damage.

Storm Damage

Wind and falling limbs can crack crowns, knock caps loose, dislodge brick, and bend flashing. After a storm, check the chimney from the ground and watch ceilings near it for new stains. We can evaluate and repair storm damage; your insurer decides any coverage.

Rebuilding Above the Roofline

When a chimney leans, has widespread loose brick, or has failed repeated repairs, a partial or full rebuild above the roofline may be needed. We recommend rebuilding only after evaluating the chimney and explaining what we found.

Waterproofing After Repairs

A breathable masonry water repellent can reduce water absorption once repairs are complete. On older brick, breathability is essential. We apply it only after the crown, flashing, and joints are sound, and it does not fix leaks.

Signs Your Chimney May Need Repair

Stains on ceilings or walls near the chimney
Damp attic areas around the chimney
Crumbling or recessed mortar
Flaking or cracked brick
White deposits on the brick
Rusted, loose, or tar-covered flashing
A cracked crown or missing cap
Leaves and needles collecting behind the chimney
A leaning chimney

Repair Versus Rebuilding

Repairs suit structurally sound chimneys with localized damage. Rebuilding suits widespread deterioration or structural problems. We explain both options honestly.
