We are working with some contractors doing a new chimney where an old chimney had caught fire thru a chase and up thru the attic. No photos. Its not my house and my installer has the camera with him.
My tech reported that there was some charred wood framing. The contractors on site suggested soda blasting. Someone else said there was some kind of paint that can seal the charred area. My concern is that charred wood is that much closer to igniting if there was ever a problem in that attic again.
My instructions to the contractor were to simply replace any wood that showed signs of charring.
Any suggestions?
