Kicking off a project in #Arlington, Francis is up on the roof, prepping to take down not one but two chimneys... and just like that, they're gone the next day!
We take down chimneys a LOT. Once atmospherically vented heating and hot water systems are removed, the chimney often becomes just a big gap in your home's envelope. Occasionally, some clients with fireplaces prefer to keep their chimneys for the rare times they light fires, but most, like the owner of this house, are eager to eliminate the thermal liability and reclaim the space previously occupied by the chimney.
