How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney ProFlex liner series: seam separation at the flex joints. The ProFlex is a common retrofit liner in Alpharetta’s 1990s-2000s builds, especially in neighborhoods off Webb Bridge Road where masonry chimneys were retrofitted for gas inserts. The flex joints fatigue from North Georgia’s freeze-thaw cycles - we see the separations cluster in January and February after hard cold snaps. We cut back to sound metal, weld in a new ProFlex section or transition to DuraFlex if the homeowner wants a more rigid alternative, then pressure-test before we sign off.
• Olympia Chimney Gelco-style cap frames: galvanic corrosion at the aluminum-to-steel interface. Olympia’s mid-grade caps use an aluminum skirt with steel hardware that corrodes where Alpharetta’s pollen-heavy springs trap moisture against the metal. The cap looks intact from the ground, but the frame is rotting through at the corners. We document the corrosion with the camera, quote a replacement in stainless or copper through our Famco and Copperfield supply lines, and note in writing whether the flue tile beneath has spalled from the water intrusion.
• Olympia Chimney crown wash failures on flat-top masonry. Olympia’s pre-mixed crown compounds don’t always bond to the Georgia clay brick common in Alpharetta’s Windward and Country Club of the South builds. The compound cracks horizontally, water gets behind it, and the freeze-thaw lifts the crown in plates. We grind to sound concrete, apply a bonding agent rated for high-alkali substrates, then pour a new crown with proper slope and drip edge - or switch to a Gelco or HeatShield crown seal if the damage is shallow enough to avoid a full rebuild.
• Olympia Chimney flashing kits: improper seat in steep-pitch applications. The standard Olympia step-flashing kit works fine on 6/12 and 7/12 roofs, but Alpharetta’s newer construction in areas like Avalon and downtown mixed-use often runs 10/12 or steeper. The factory flashing doesn’t seat deep enough into the mortar bed, and wind-driven rain gets behind it within two to three years. We fabricate custom step flashings from heavier-gauge copper or source extended-seat kits through Copperfield, then bed them in polymer-modified mortar with a woven mesh reinforcement.
• Olympia Chimney HeatShield-compatible refractory panels: thermal shock cracking in see-through fireplaces. The see-through units popular in Alpharetta’s 2015-2020 builds use thinner refractory panels to save weight. When homeowners run long fires during our occasional ice storms, the panels crack vertically at the throat damper shadow line. We camera the smoke chamber to confirm the crack hasn’t compromised the firebox wrapper, then replace with OEM Olympia panels or HeatShield Cerfractory foam if the damage is limited to surface spalling - always with a written note on which option preserves any remaining warranty coverage.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule. A live person answers, confirms your address in Alpharetta, and books a Level 2 inspection slot. You get a text when your tech is en route.
2. 2
   Camera-scan inspection. We run the camera the full flue length, document liner condition, crown integrity, and any water intrusion paths. The camera doesn’t soften anything, and neither do I - Corrine Halstead reviews flagged findings personally before we quote.
3. 3
   Written price, written scope. Haven Standard Clause 1: you get the full cost, the parts list (OEM Olympia or quality aftermarket from DuraFlex, HeatShield, or Gelco), and the warranty terms before anyone picks up a trowel.
4. 4
   Repair and test. We complete the work, run a post-repair camera pass, and pressure-test or smoke-test as the repair type requires. No cleanup until the documentation is complete.
5. 5
   Photo record and sign-off. Haven Standard Clause 4: your documented photo record is archived and emailed within 24 hours. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is stamped on every invoice.

Why Alpharetta Homeowners Call Emberly Chimney Cleaners Alpharetta for Olympia Chimney Work

We’ve worked Alpharetta chimneys long enough to know which builder installed which Olympia component in which subdivision, and what that means for how it’ll fail.

When Olympia parts are back-ordered, we source equivalent-grade DuraFlex liners, HeatShield refractory systems, or Gelco caps through Haven’s buying network without marking them up to “expedite” fees. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and named on your appointment text. The 365-Day Done Right Promise means if the repair fails, we return and make it right - no requote, no argument. That’s Haven Standard Clause 5.
