Jobs we quote most
Sweeps, waterproofing, chase covers
Aloha is unincorporated Washington County, not a suburb with one housing style. Reedville and the TV Highway / 185th corridor have 1960s–80s ranches. Cooper Mountain and later plats add prefab fireplaces.
Flat lots and mature trees mean chimneys dry slowly. Moss on the crown and rust on prefab lids are the usual winter complaints.
We book a lot of $149 sweep-and-inspections here, then waterproof ranch masonry or replace the chase cover when the photos show rust or open mortar.
Aloha is a large, family-friendly community in unincorporated Washington County, sitting between Beaverton and Hillsboro. Its neighborhoods are dominated by 1960s–1990s ranch homes and split-levels, with newer subdivisions climbing toward Cooper Mountain. Many of these homes have prefabricated metal chimney chases as well as traditional masonry. Whatever you have, the damp Tualatin Valley climate puts it to the test — and M.Y Chimney Sweeps & Repairs is the locally owned team that keeps Aloha fireplaces safe and efficient.
Why Aloha Chimneys Need Extra Attention
The Pacific Northwest sees more than 40 inches of rain a year, and Aloha's flat, tree-lined lots keep chimneys damp long after the rain stops. That constant moisture is the number-one enemy of both masonry and metal chases. Over time it causes:
- Cracked or spalling brick and crumbling mortar from repeated freeze-thaw cycles
- Rusted chase covers on prefab chimneys that let water pour into the chase
- Deteriorated chimney crowns that allow water into the structure
- Failing flashing where the chimney meets the roof, causing ceiling stains
- White, chalky efflorescence — a sign water is moving through your brick
Catching these issues early with an annual inspection is far cheaper than waiting for a leak. Chase cover replacement, waterproofing, and crown repair are among our most-requested services in Aloha.
