Your chimney is going to pieces from the inside
‘'*I^BVE3HBH99SSs9^ k? Moisture is getting into the bnck from the flue
side and soaking through to the stucco. You could have the chimney reltned, which will let
you patch the stucco, or you could have a metal cap installed that will let smoke out but
prevent water from getting down the flue.
Home Hints: A dollar bill is great for cleaning eyeglasses

Halcyon days, autumnal haze.
Ask the Old Fanner: I have a 26-year-old
brick chimney on an outside wall that was
stuccoed 16 years ago. Now the stucco is chip
>> ping off in large enough pieces to take about
- one-third of the bnck with it. If I remove the
stucco, can I replace it with anything that will
& save the bnck? LA, Brattleboro, Vt
