Saugus Homes & Their Chimneys

Saugus was built out largely between the 1940s and 1960s, and its neighborhoods are dominated by capes, ranches and small colonials with a single brick chimney that originally vented an oil furnace and a fireplace. Golden Hills and North Saugus have larger, newer homes, and East Saugus has older two-families near the river.

Common Chimney Problems We See in Saugus

A 60-to-75-year-old chimney has usually lost its crown integrity and needs a cap, crown repair and often rebuilding of the top courses. Many Saugus homes have switched to gas heat, leaving an oversized clay furnace flue that condenses and deteriorates unless relined. Flashing on these older roofs is often original and a common source of leaks around the chimney base.
