I live in Greencastle. Well, Putnam County to be more precise since I live out in the county, in the sticks.
Long story short, my fireplace does not draft well. When it is coldest or windiest, the smoke comes back into the house. The chimney is not blocked, we had it inspected last year when we bought the house. I think it is too short -- the roof line is higher than the chimney cap, so I think its dealing with some turbulence. I wish I could get an expert out here to tell me I'm wrong!
So, my quest for the past 2 months has been to find somebody, anybody who will actually service a chimney in Putnam County. Avon won't come this far west. Bloomington won't come this far North. Don Walton's in Cloverdale won't come out to see a Chimney -- they gave me the phone numbers to people who might do that kind of work, but they never answer their phones. Ever.
What does a person have to do to get a chimney estimate and buy an extension (probably). Someone, please, come take my money.
