Is chimney repair covered under homeowners insurance?

The '3 to 10' rule is a guideline for chimney safety and performance. It generally dictates that a chimney should extend at least 3 feet above the highest point of the roof and be at least 2 feet taller than any part of the building within a 10-foot radius. This ensures proper drafting.
