Lance Haggard of Higdon, AL, has been found

and arrested on Sand Mountain in Dekalb

County, AL.

The Dekalb County Sheriff's Office released

Early this morning, a multi-agency

operation resulted in the capture of a

fugitive with sixteen outstanding warrants

in DeKalb County, as well as several others

Department, Jackson County Sheriff's

Office, and the Dade County Sheriff's

Office attempted to locate the subject at a residence on County Road 169 (near Cartersville).

While the team was at the residence, the suspect attempted to return to the residence on an ATV. The suspect fled, and led the team on a pursuit which entered Georgia, continuing on District Line Road.

After turning on Owenby Road, the suspect abandoned the ATV and fled on foot. He was captured a short distance in a wooded area after crossing back over the Alabama line into Jackson County. The ATV the subject fled on was found to be stolen.

Jared Lance Haggard (28 of Higdon) was taken to the Jackson County Detention Center where he remains on a $15,000 bond. Once released from Jackson County, Haggard will be transported to DeKalb County on 16 existing charges related to narcotics, eluding law enforcement, multiple burglaries, and receiving stolen property.

During his apprehension, Haggard was also found to be in possession of methamphetamine, adding yet another charge. He'll also be facing numerous new charges resulting from this morning's pursuit.

Haggard is a suspect in multiple burglaries in Dade County Georgia, Jackson County, and DeKalb County.

Outstanding Warrants in DeKalb County:

DeKalb County Sheriff Nick Welden said of the apprehension: "This apprehension is huge for our department and our county. Mr. Haggard has stolen a lot of possession from our citizens and citizens of surrounding counties. Our deputies, agents, investigators have done a fantastic job with the theft investigations and this apprehension which has spanned six months."

"I'd like to thank the U.S. Marshalls and all the supporting units that participated in this operation. Their help was pivotal in his capture. The Northern part of our county can sleep more peacefully knowing he's in custody," said Sheriff Welden.

"I'd like to also thank the ALEA Aviation Unit for helping with this apprehension, without their help, we might have had a different outcome this morning," he said.

"God Bless!" Concluded Sheriff Welden."

Henegar Announces Run for District 3 County Commissioner

Contributed Article

My name is Jerry Henegar and I

would like to announce my

candidacy for Dade County District

3 Commissioner. I am married to

my wife of 9 years Tiffany Henegar,

we are both lifelong residents of

Dade County.

I have been employed by Cobb

County Fire & Emergency Services

for the past 21 years where I hold

the rank of sergeant. I currently

own my own business called Event

First Response. We provide

emergency planning and response

for corporate events across The

United States and Internationally.

I have been involved in my

community in different areas. I have

been a volunteer firefighter for

Trenton – Dade County Fire

Department for around 27 years. I

was elected as The City of Trenton

Fire and Utilities Commissioner in

2016 and will end my term on

December 31, 2019. In 2018 I help start The City of Trenton touch a truck event and will continue to be a part of that.

Dade County has great potential to be a top county in Georgia, we have access to two states, Tennessee and Alabama to pull visitors and business from. We must market our potential and start preparing our infrastructure for future growth.

As a county commissioner I believe we must continue our meetings between the four major players in the growth of our county, the county itself, The City of Trenton along with the school board and the Dade County water authority. I have three key points for our future as your commissioner, planning, transparency and communication, without these three key factors in place, we fail the citizens as leaders of your county.

I’m asking for your support in 2020, feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.

Thank You,

Jerry Henegar

Start planning your

Christmas activities now.

Plan to come by Trenton

United Methodist Church

before the Christmas

Parade on December 14

and view a beautiful

exhibit of more than 100

manger scenes crafted in

a variety of artistic media.

This exhibit is part of

an extensive collection

belonging to Judy Hunt, a

longtime resident of

Trenton. Judy says that

she always enjoyed the visual storytelling ability of nativity scenes and she has been collecting manger scenes for more than 30 years. Friends and family have added to her collection throughout the years and at this time, her collection has grown to more than 300 sets.

Judy doesn’t box up her collection after the holiday, instead, Judy decorates her home year-round using various sets as a focal point. This allows her to enjoy them every day, not just at Christmas. She has graciously agreed to share her collection with Dade County this year in conjunction with the Christmas parade.

The exhibit will begin at 4:00 and continues until 6:00 (the beginning of the parade). The church will be offering free coffee, hot chocolate and cookies to attendees. Restrooms are available.

Watch for Judy during the exhibit. She will be there to answer any questions you may have.

After Eleven Years Streetscape Project May Be At An End

by: Summer Kelley

Hard financial decisions before Mayor Alex Case and Trenton City Commissioners.

Commissioners approved the raise in sewer rates by 15% and to wait six months and see where things stand financially with the sewer department before deciding whether another raise is necessary. According to current estimates, an 8% raise was necessary to break even and 15% will give the sewer department $33,774.62 to put toward maintenance and repairs expenses which have steadily been increasing as the sewer system ages. The commission continues to wait on the engineering report with recommendations for upgrading the sewer system to a more modern, more efficient system.

To move forward or discard the streetscape project is a question before city officials. Representatives from Ragan-Smith Associates engineering firm spoke during the work session and explained the eleven year history of the streetscape project, funding, plans and current options. The cost of the project has moved from the original projection of over $300,000 to a current projection of $900,000. Terry Teynolds from Ragan-Smith explained that the cost for permitting, supplies and other fees have increased in the intervening years, but in order to help out Teynolds and Scott Niesen worked with Senator Jeff Mullis to come up with more funding for the county - another $362,000 to the $288,000 in grant funds already set aside for the project. That would bring the city's contribution to another $109,000 on top of what they have already to total the $250,000 for the matching funds.

Case explained that while there was not a problem with finding the rest of the matching funds for the grant money, the problem was with having to pay all the bills in advance and waiting for the reimbursement from the state and federal monies. The city would have to be able to pay the $900,000 and wait for the reimbursement funds to come back. Case said that would be asking a lot of the taxpayers and city as there were not funds in the account to cover the $900,000.

A loan was suggested and a few other options and Commissioner Monda Wooten spoke in support of continuing on and looking for other available funds because without moving forward, the city loses all the funds already expended - $141,000 - when for $109,000 they could get $600,000 in funding from the state and federal government. The issue was tabled for review by the Mayor and commissioners and pending answers to questions like how fast reimbursements would be issued and other concerns. Commissioners were told that if they chose to accept the grant then they needed to thank Senator Mullis, but if they chose not to accept the grant and move forward with the project, they needed to contact Senator Mullis and let him know why not due to concerns from the state in the past that Dade County and the City of Trenton did not follow through on grants and projects.

Police Commissioner Kirk Forshee reported that Trenton Police Department handled 423 calls in the month of October, preformed 1,387 business checks, made 10 arrests, worked 21 traffic accidents, answered 5 domestic disturbance calls, two animal control calls, and issued 68 citations. Fines collected in October totaled $18,150.23.

The Inspections Department for the City of Trenton has five new construction inspections, four remodels and two additions with six electrical inspections completed, according to Fire and Utilities Commissioner Jerry Henegar. The Trenton Fire Department responded to 76 calls - 52 medical calls and 14 motor vehicle accidents, and 12 fire related calls. The fire department held a fire safety class for pre-K students and two live burn classes. The Sewer Department had 67 underground locates, six emergency locates, answered 12 sewer calls, performed one sewer tap, and two manhole repairs.

The city Streets Department completed 65 work orders, work on Oakwood Drive, Rosewood Drive, and Forest Street, installed some new signs to replace worn out ones, edged sidewalks for the final time this year, mowed right-of-ways, and performed equipment maintenance.

The civic center was rented 75 hours and animal control handled 16 animal control calls.

Revenue for October totaled $299,346 and expenses $161,445 for the city as property taxes start coming in for the year.

Commissioners approved the purchase of LED lighting to replace lighting on the city's Christmas light fixtures at a cost of $6,037, significantly less than purchasing all new fixtures according to Wooten, to put RFP's out for two new patrol cars and a tag reader, and to purchase a new SCADA system to monitor equipment, machinery and lift stations with the sewer department at a cost of $24,993.

Commissioners adjourned to an executive session to discuss personnel. When they returned, Case explained that the session was used to discuss the four years of workers' comp claims and give commissioners an update on the cases and a final figure for 2020.

Full video of the work session, meeting and post executive session meeting can be viewed below.

Heavy Industry Land Use Ordinance Tabled While Committee Works on Changes

by: Summer Kelley

A few items on the work shop agenda from the November County Commission meeting were discussed and tabled for a later decision. Among those items is the proposed ordinance to permit heavy industry land use. The committee to draft a proposed ordinance to present to the commission has met three times and does not have anything ready to present to the commission and public, yet, but plans to have something ready by the December commission meeting.

Another tabled item was a proposed amendment to the county's liquor by the drink or Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) ordinance. Commissioner Phillip Hartline asked that the ordinance, which was approved by 60 percent of the those who voted on the ordinance, be changed to allow for the construction of a facility to sale or sales of liquor by the drink in areas other those along state highways and with sewer service. Hartline pointed out that those guidelines severely limited any area of construction or opening a business to sell alcoholic beverages to along Highway 11, at the 299 exit in Wildwood and in Trenton city limits as sewer service was not available elsewhere. Other commissioners were not ready to make any changes saying they would like to see support for the changes by residents of the county or someone proposing to bring such a business into an area other than those specified. Commissioner Robert Goff said the county had already had a business that wanted them to adjust the number of seating down and they were told no. Goff said he was concerned that if one thing changed then where would the changes stop. Eventually it could get to the point that there were no guidelines and bars were popping up everywhere throughout the county.

Other items tabled until next month were an Intergovernmental Agreement on SPLOST between the city and county while the attorneys finish working on agreement and the purchase of turnout gear, new handheld thermal imaging cameras, radios and pagers for the fire departments until more concrete numbers are available on what the departments need.

One person addressed the commission during citizen's participation. The man, a resident of Virginia, said it was his second visit to a commission meeting and he would not be returning. The man is upset over legal matters pertaining to a ticket written by a state trooper in Dade County as the man drove through the area in 2009. The ticket, according to the man, has led to other legal problems and he was asking for assistance in getting the situation resolved. County Executive Ted Rumley said they would be glad to speak with the man and with the County Attorney after the meeting to go over the matter.

Commissioner Lamar Lowery said the county handled the biggest number of 911 calls in October since he had taken office. Dade County E-911 dispatched 3,673 911 calls in October - 3,160 were law enforcement and 204 were EMS.

Co-ed softball has ended at the county's four fields recreation complex. Commissioner Phillip Hartline said they played over 50 games. Hartline also said the recreation department was going to be hosting a soccer tournament of older kids. Some of the Bradford pears at the four fields as the roots are causing some issues to the walking tracks and sidewalks. The trees will be replaced with a less invasive tree.

SPLOST and LOST revenue was down for the month Commissioner Robert Goff shared, but still over $200,000 at $215,444. If collections finish out the year over $200,000, Goff said it will be the best year the county has seen since 2011.

County road crews were busy in October fulfilling 357 work orders. Employees had to clear 17 trees from roadways. Sulfur Springs Gap got re-done, Tire Amnesty Day collected 2,500 tires, and the transfer station processed 600 tons of garbage.

The Environmental Protection Department (EPD) was in Dade three times last week according to County Executive Ted Rumley. The EPD made visits to help with ongoing illegal dumping issues, the majority of which are tires. Rumley said the Sheriff is working with the county and EPD to help resolve the illegal dumping problems.

Solar farms companies are looking for places near high power lines to put in solar farms. Rumley cautioned people to be careful as some solar farms companies are not as legitimate. Rumley has contact information for a company that is, if anyone is interested in getting in contact with them. They are looking for land to lease from 30 acres minimum up to 200 acres.

Funding and approval for the storm shelters is ready to go and Rumley said the county would be putting the project out for bid in the spring. The federal government wanted the storm shelters completed by August, but the timeline is not workable and the county will be asking for an extension. The first four storm shelters will be located at Davis Elementary School, North Dade Community Center, the Senior Center and on the south end. Rumley said the shelters will have heat and air, bathrooms and showers and be large enough to hold meetings. Once the first four storm shelters are done the county plans to get funding for three more in New Home, on Lookout and West Brow.

The county is still working out problems with Puckett Ambulance Service, Rumley said. Rumley and Case have been meeting with Puckett along with Marion, Sequatchie, Catoosa and Walker Counties over coverage issues when multiple calls come in at once.

Commissioners approved proclamations declaring November as Hospice Month and Adoption Awareness Month, a resolution for a Memorandum of Understanding with UGA Cooperative Extension Services; and the assignment of legal counsel to represent the county regarding the opioid crisis in a class action lawsuit at no cost to the county and 25% of any money awarded to the county through the lawsuit.

"The Great Georgia Pollinator Census"

On August 23rd and 24th, 2019, Georgians all across our state will become citizen scientists and participate in the first Great Georgia Pollinator Census. The census is an important initiative to document a snapshot of our pollinator populations. Other goals include increasing sustainable pollinator habitats and increasing the entomological literacy of Georgia citizens. We want people to go from “oooh, it’s a bug” to “look at the tarsal claw on that bee!” All Georgians are invited to be part of this project!

In short, on the census dates people are encouraged to pick a favorite pollinator plant from their garden to use for counting. This plant should have many blooms that are attracting insects. For 15 minutes participants will count the insects landing on their plant and put them in categories including “bumble bees,” “honeybees,” “wasps,” and “other insects.”

You do not have to be an entomologist to participate; we are not looking for species level identification. If you are interested in participating, the Dade County UGA Extension and Tri-State Beekeepers Association invite you to the monthly beekeepers meeting on July 15th to learn more. I will be presenting the details about the upcoming Great Georgia Pollinator Census and provide all attendees the resources needed to be a participant of the census. I will provide a guide that gives you all the tools needed to tell a bee from a fly and a bumble bee from a carpenter bee.

Pollinator conservation is important to everyone from apartment dwellers to farmers. Homeowners will learn through this project that many of our native bees forage in a small area, 300-500 ft², and if the bees’ needs are met they will stay and provide valuable ecoservices for that homeowner. We can make a real and lasting difference in pollinator protection.

Join us at the Tri-State Beekeepers Association monthly meeting on July 15th at 7:00pm at the Dade County UGA Extension Agricultural Center to learn more about how YOU can be a part of Georgia pollinator history!

Dade County 4-H Career Fair: Employer Phase

Last week we hosted the first annual “Dade County 4-H Career Fair:

Employer Phase” for our Dade Middle School students. The purpose of

the Career Fair was to introduce jobs and industries to our middle school students that they might not have heard of. Each booth included a hands-on activity for the students to do.
We had twelve booths set up by local companies and industries. Benchmark Physical Therapy showed students how to do exercises with Thera bands. At the Citizens Bank & Trust table, students practiced filling out giant checks. Marion Environmental’s HAZMAT suits were a big hit to try out. The Ironworkers Local 704 let students try on the latest style of safety harness. Georgia Northwestern Technical College explained dual-enrollment and all the programs they have to offer. Students tried out the Healthy Food beanbag toss at the Primary Healthcare booth. Our own Ag Agent, Sarah Dyer, showed students how to grade cuts of beef. Coosa River Conservation District let students use a transit to measure differences in elevation.

Uncle Lar’s Outpost hosted two activities. The retail sales booth let students ring up a sale on the cash register and practice counting back change. The restaurant kitchen booth gave students the opportunity to suit up in hair net and food service gloves to properly measure ingredients such as flour.

Integer brought their A-game with a simple, but accurate, simulation of a balloon angioplasty. Integer makes the medical tubing used in this procedure. The student activity showed how the procedure works by using a balloon, a clear plastic tube, and playdoh.
Mueller Company and Lodge Manufacturing employees brought the AFS Foundry in a Box display. Students were able to choose a pattern, fill a mold with sand, pour tin into the mold, and make small castings to take home. The AFS Foundry in a Box can be scheduled for schools or other student groups.

We would like to thank Bank of Dade for sponsoring lunches for the Career Fair exhibitors. Bank of Dade is always a big supporter of Dade County 4-H. Thank you also to the Trenton-Dade Optimist Club members who came to help serve the lunches.

The Dade County 4-H Chicken Show will take place on Thursday, November 14th, at 6:00 p.m. in the Ag Center. Each 4-H’er who joined the Chicken Project this past spring will bring in their three best birds to be judged. They received two-day-old chicks at the end of May, and they have been taking care of these chickens all summer. Charles Lancaster, retired Catoosa County Ag Agent, will be judging the contest. If you are curious about what a Chicken Show is, come to the Ag Center at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, November 14th, to find out.

Our November 4-H County Council meeting will also be on the 14th, immediately after the Chicken Show. County Council is a monthly meeting for any fourth through twelfth graders who are interested in 4-H. We will meet at 7:00 p.m. at the Ag Center on Thursday, November 14th. Come join us for an hour of 4-H fun!

Historically Speaking: Wreaths Across America, Geneaology, Football and the Survey

by: Donna Street

The Historical Society met on Saturday

with about 10 members present. We had

a very productive meeting. We continue to

work and plan for the Wreaths Across

America. In conjunction with the American

Legion, the Auxiliary and the Mary and

Martha C-Group at Trenton United

Methodist Church, our group is attempting

to place a wreath on every grave of

someone who lived in Dade or was

associated in some way with Dade. If you

read Gail Hedden’s article for this week,

then you will see that over 175 persons

have been identified. We are making good

headway on this project. We are still

looking for a few volunteers to help place

the wreaths on Dec. 14. This also

happens on the day for the Christmas Parade and some other related activities in Trenton. Look for our table at the Halloween Event at the library on Oct. 26. Instead of candy we will be handing out small American flags for the Tricker-Treaters.

The next Genealogy Workshop will take place at the library on November 5 from 6-8. We are hosting this one in the evening rather than Saturday morning as an evening might be more convenient for some folks. If you are not aware, the state of Georgia pays for the use of Ancestry.com for free within the library. So if you have some research to do then come and spend some time at this session. There will be several Historical Society members present to help you with your journey. As I was helping someone look up his family history the other day he remarked, “This could be addictive.” He is correct in that comment. Seeing a grandfather’s signature or his height or color of eyes or hair written on his World War I draft card can begin a journey that leads one down many roads.

Last week, I got a call from one of my wonderful high school teachers, Rochelle McBryar Holcomb. She and I are working on collecting her husband, Morrell Holcomb’s records as a football coach. He was the coach at both Davis and Dade in the 1960’s. He amassed the best record of any coach that ever coached at a school in this town. It was not hard to find since there is a marvelous website entitled the Georgia High School Football Historians Association. (www.ghsfha.org )

I got lost for a few hours in looking at the stats for high school football since its inception in Dade County. You can look up the Dade Wildcats or the Davis Yellow Jackets or the Dade Wolverines. Unfortunately, they did not separate Northwest Georgia from the new Dade Wolverines, so don’t look for Northwest Georgia. Just go to Dade Wolverines.

My favorite and most fitting statistic that Dade and Davis were tied at 11 wins each and one tie for their 23 years of competition. It just seems fitting to me that the big rivalry between the two schools would end with a tie.

You can find every coach and almost every game by the numbers. It also list players who made All-state or Honorable Mention for All-state. If you are lover of sport and especially Dade Football then you will find yourself entranced for a few hours by looking back at this history.

For example, I was working on a project with Gary (G. C.) and Terry Avans in the library last week and I showed the site to them. After we looked at a few things, one or the other would ask me to click on a certain game and after finding the specific game; they then took turns in reliving the events of the game in the history room. Some memories just don’t dull with time. The years roll away when you see 60 and 70 year old men talking about their glory days on the field of competition.

If you live within the city limits of Trenton, please be aware that there are surveyors who will come by your house in the near future to take photographs of any home or structure that was built before 1974. They began last week and will continue until all properties older than 40 years are counted and recorded. We think that there are more than 400 to be counted. That is based on the information which has been gathered from the tax assessor’s office. This is being paid for through a grant to the city and the county from the Georgia Department of Natural Resources Historic Preservation Commission.

When this project is finished, we will have a document that will itemize all properties which can be classified as historic and there should be a description of the property and why it may be significant. If you have questions or concerns, then do not hesitate to call the county or the city government offices or call me.

We will be happy to help you understand the process and how it can help us to apply for grants and create historic districts in the future.

The population of Dade County is a little over 16,000. During the same time period we circulated 44,251 items (books, movies, audiobooks, ebooks, park passes, and other items). Our library is serving our community in important ways. We have 6,357 library cardholders and 1,100 people met in one of our meeting rooms during FY2019. Our library helps people stay connected. During FY2019, we had 5,852 computer sessions and 21,449 WiFi sessions both during and outside of library hours. Yes, our WiFi is available outside the library 24/7.

Our library offers quality programs to the community or facilitates programs offered by other organizations. We had 2,526 children and teens attend 219 programs at the library. We had 4,233 people attending 59 programs for adults and families. During the month of June, the library handed out 719 lunches to children. The lunches were provided by the Schools’ lunch program and the library got them to the children.

The Book Club will meet on Tuesday, November 19, to discuss The President is Missing by James Patterson and Bill Clinton. It’s a political thriller which offers several scary possibilities. Anyone is welcome. We meet at 7:00 PM.

Views and Opinions

Double for couples?

Dear Dave,

Does the amount you advise saving for a beginner emergency fund in Baby Step 1 double for a couple, or does it stay the same?

Charlie

Dear Charlie,

Whether you’re single or married, Baby Step 1 of my plan is to save $1,000 as quickly as possible for a starter emergency fund. This may not sound like a lot of cash to have on-hand in the event of an emergency, but you need to remember the $1,000 figure is a temporary thing.

Baby Step 1 is saving up $1,000 for a beginner emergency fund. Baby Step 2 is paying off all debt, except your home. The vast majority of folks working my plan are debt-free, except for their mortgage, in two years or less. Then, you move to Baby Step 3, which is increasing your emergency fund from $1,000 to three-to-six months of household expenses.

In reality, we’re talking about a pretty short period of time where you’d have just $1,000 in emergency savings. Plus, it serves as an exercise in financial discipline. A lot of people have nothing saved before beginning the Baby Steps.

If that makes things seem a little scary at the start, it’s not necessarily a bad thing. A healthy level of fear can be a fantastic motivator. I don’t want anyone constantly living their lives in fear, but that added push—that sense of urgency—can make you work harder to get out of debt, and move on the Baby Step 3, as quickly as possible!

—Dave

Baby Step for weddings?

Dear Dave,

We recently started following your plan, and it has made a huge difference in our financial outlook and our marriage. When it comes to the Baby Steps, when do you recommend setting aside money for a wedding? We have a daughter, and we want to be able to do as much as possible for her when the time comes.

Jim

Dear Jim,

That’s a good question. There’s not really a Baby Step specifically for weddings. In my mind, it should probably come after Baby Step 5—setting aside a college fund for your kids.

Maybe part of this is the dad in me, but in prioritizing these things I think a good education is more important than a big wedding. Don’t get me wrong, a wedding is a wonderful event and cause for lots of joy and celebration. But it’s also a one-day event. Plenty of people have inexpensive, beautiful weddings, and enjoy long, wonderful lives together!

Chimney Cleaning and Repair / How to Hire a Chimney Sweep

Tom Kraeutler

When temperatures drop, it’s time

to think about getting your house

ready for winter. A good place to start

is by reviewing your chimney for any

repair or chimney cleaning it may

need.

Often neglected, chimneys are a

vital part of a home’s structure and

mechanical functioning. If a chimney

is not regularly cleaned, or repairs

attended to, chimney problems can

result, including fires, collapses and

even carbon monoxide poisoning. So,

before firing up your furnace or

building your first fireplace blaze, it makes sense to make sure your chimney is up for the challenge.

The chimney is essentially a vent pipe that allows hot exhaust gasses from a wood burning fire or from your home’s heating system, to pass safely through combustible parts of your home and be exhausted outside. While most chimneys are brick, chimneys for newer homes may be made of out of metal. Regardless, both can present problems if not properly maintained.

When wood burns, it never completely combusts. What’s left forms a vaporized residue that when carried up the chimney, mixes with condensation as it cools and sticks to the inside of the chimney. This material, commonly referred to as creosote, can be very difficult to clean. But if it’s allowed to build up, a chimney fire could happen.

Chimney fires are one of the most dangerous and devastating types of household fires. Fully engaged, they can roar like a jet engine shooting fire into the sky like an oversized roman candle on the 4th of July. Fueled by a dirty chimney, temperatures inside can reach 2000 degrees and destroy an entire home.

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission and the National Fire Protection Association, having your chimney inspected on a yearly basis and having your chimney cleaned as needed is the best defense against a fire. But while cleaning and inspecting are not do it yourself projects, there are a few things you can do to keep an eye on safety between those annual evaluations.

Chimney Structure

First, inspect your chimney from the outside of the home to see if it leans or appears to be separating from the building. Chimneys that are separating from the house can be especially dangerous. Sometimes, the steel plates that are used to hold the chimney to the house will rust away and leave the chimney vulnerable to a collapse. If a chimney leans or worse, appears to be pulling away from the building, it should be immediately checked by a professional.

Next, use binoculars to look for loose bricks or cracks, especially near the top. Freezing weather can cause bricks to deteriorate or loosen up. Any deteriorated sections should be replaced. Check that the metal flashing between the roof and chimney is tight. Loose chimney flashing can cause leaks that will show up inside the house, but is not that difficult to repair.

If the roof isn’t too difficult to access, take a look at the chimney’s crown as well. The crown is the area between the outside edge of a masonry chimney and the liner. Chimney crowns often develop cracks that can lead to leaks and need to be repaired with caulk.

Finally, look for vegetation at the top of the chimney. Ivy, for example, can grow across the top of the chimney and obstruct the flow of exhaust gases out the chimney.

If your fireplace or furnace is exhausting through a metal vent pipe, it doesn’t mean you are off the hook when it comes to structural problems. Metal pipes can rust or become dislodged from high winds.

While inspecting the roof, look for vents that may have separated at the seams. These may need to be rejoined, and then reinforced so it doesn’t happen again.

Chimney Sweeping

Dirty flues, the metal or clay liner inside a chimney, are the leading cause of chimney fires. The surest way to check this is from the top of the chimney. That job, however, is best left to a professional. As an alternative, homeowners can check for clean fireplace flues by opening the damper above the fireplace and looking up inside the flue with a strong flashlight. If you can’t see the sides of the clay or metal liner clearly, a thorough chimney cleaning may be needed.

For chimneys that serve the home’s heating system, inspection is equally important. These chimneys can become blocked by nests or other obstructions and cause combustion gas to back up into the home leading to carbon monoxide poisoning. Before turning on your furnace or boiler for the season, be sure to have the equipment serviced and the chimney or vent pipe checked for obstructions.

Several years ago while inspecting a home for a potential home buyer, I discovered a nest inside that chimney that was causing the combustion gas from the furnace to fill the home with carbon monoxide. The kicker was that the couple that owned the home was expecting a child. Mom-to-be was spending lots of time in the house and experiencing what she thought was morning sickness. Blood tests subsequently proved it was carbon monoxide that was causing the problem and the discovery of the nest happened in just the nick of time.

In general, all chimneys should be professionally inspected at least once a year and cleaned as determined by that inspection. As a rule of thumb though, a chimney should be swept by a professional chimney cleaner once for every cord of wood burned. A cord is a unit of measurement for a pile of firewood that measures 4 feet high, 4 feet wide and 8 feet long.

When hiring a professional chimney cleaning sweep however, be very cautious if the contractor recommends an expensive repair. During our radio show, we frequently hear of less-than-honest chimney cleaning contractors that offer low-priced inspections that always find expensive problems, which of course, they’d be happy to repair for an additional fee. As with any home repair or maintenance contractor, homeowners are wise to get a second opinion from an unbiased expert, like a professional home inspector, before any repairs have been started.

How to Hire a Chimney Sweep

The Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA), a nonprofit, educational institution focused on the prevention of chimney and venting hazards, recommends that consumers use caution when considering what chimney sweep to hire for an annual inspection or related service on their chimney or vent.

Because proper care and attention to service can help protect people from unnecessary fires and carbon monoxide poisonings, it is important to choose the professional wisely.

Question to ask should include:

How long has the chimney cleaning company been in business?
Does the company offer current references?
Does the company have unresolved complaints filed within the city or state consumer protection agency or Better Business Bureau?
Does the company or individual carry a valid business liability insurance policy to protect your home and furnishings against accidents?
Does the company ensure that a CSIA Certified Chimney Sweep will be on the job site?
Chimney sweeps that are certified by CSIA are required to prove competency by passing an examination on fire prevention codes and standard chimney service practices. To locate a CSIA Certified Chimney Sweep in your area go to or call 1-800-536-0118.

Regular chimney cleaning and repair is an important way to prevent a chimney fire or carbon monoxide poisoning.
