Water intrusion from a missing cap can lead to problems in both masonry and factory built chimneys, with repercussions that a ect not just your replace and chimney system but other parts of your home as well.

Eventually there may be no mortar le at all, allowing rain or snowmelt directly into your home. Our chimney experts can repair water damage to masonry and mortar, keeping your chimney leak free and maintaining the integrity of your home.

If you don’t have a masonry chimney, you’re still at risk of chimney leaks. If you have a framed wooden box, called a “chase”, enclosing your venting system, those materials can also wear out and allow water into your home. e top of a chase system must have a proper cover, chimney cap, and storm collar. e weakest point of the chase is the sheet metal chase cover. Chase covers are more susceptible to rain and hail than masonry chimneys. Over time, dents form and the cover sags on top, collecting water and rusting through. A new chase cover is sloped from the center with drip edges designed to shed water away from the sides of the chase. If water runs down the sides of your chase, it can enter through gaps in the façade on your chase. Chases are also ashed to the roo ine, and that can be another area water sneaks its way in to wreak havoc on your home.

Whether your chimney is masonry or you have a framed chase and factory-built chimney, a proper chimney cap is your rst line of defense against a leaky chimney. If you look up at your chimney and there isn’t a cap, call us right away!

From Page 2 will serve as both a collaborative space for artists, as well as providing additional classroom opportunities. Building on the o erings of the current center, the new multi-purpose room will be available for the public to rent in the evenings and on weekends. A large courtyard will sit adjacent to the commu- nity room, which will provide indoor/outdoor space for added exhibits, concerts, and community space. CAE is working with EVstudio, architects, and Himmelman Construction to bring the new building to life.

Programming for the addition will include more classroom space for all mediums. Artists will have a variety of membership opportunities.

CAE is currently working on a new line of programming that will include special events such as Last Fridays – a monthly celebration for the mountain community that will have food trucks, live entertainment, and, of course, shopping. CAE will invite all mountain area nonpro ts to use the new space free of charge for board meetings and retreats. Evenings and weekends, the community space will be available to rent. In short, CAE’s vision is to create a gathering place for people to converse and create.

As CAE begins to make this dream a reality, they invite the community to invest in the future of the mountain area. ey are still accepting donations. As with everything over the past few years, cost of materials and labor has gone up. CAE has 90% of the funds secured, with every intention to have 100% by the completion of the project, which is scheduled for December 2023. Center for the Arts Evergreen was built and is owned by this wonderful community. It exists for everyone to enjoy. CAE is, and always will be, a safe place for folks to come together to express their joys and sorrows through the power of art. If you are interested in investing in the future of Evergreen, please consider a donation to CAE. When generous people choose to be a part of a legacy that will last well beyond their personal in uence, they invest far into the future. Donations and support made today will make a di erence in the lives of thousands of people.
