Is chimney repair covered under homeowners insurance?

Homeowners insurance in Richmond typically covers chimney damage that results from unexpected events, like fire or storm damage.

What is the 3 to 10 rule for chimneys?

The '3 to 10 rule' for chimneys is a guideline stating the chimney should extend at least three feet above the roofline and be ten feet away from any part of the roof that is higher. This helps ensure proper draft and ventilation, crucial for safety in Richmond homes. Professionals can verify your chimney's compliance.

Can a handyman repair a chimney?
