Chimney Damage and Insurance

Chimneys can be prone to damage from various events, such as strong winds, heavy rainfall, or even animal infestations. If your chimney is damaged, you may wonder if your home insurance policy will cover the repairs. The answer depends on the type of damage and the specific terms of your policy.

Chimney Sweeps and Maintenance

Regular chimney sweeps and maintenance can help prevent damage and ensure your chimney is in good working condition. However, even with regular maintenance, accidents can still happen. If you're unsure about the condition of your chimney, it's always best to consult a professional chimney sweep or repair service.

Home Insurance and Chimney Repairs

  • Storms

    However, if the damage is caused by wear and tear, lack of maintenance, or gradual deterioration, it may not be covered by your policy.
