Chimney care in the 732 area
Long heating seasons and repeated freeze-thaw cycles are hard on masonry around Lakewood, Toms River and Brick. Water that soaks into a cracked crown or open mortar joint freezes, expands and breaks brick apart (spalling), and nor'easter rain drives water in at the flashing. An annual inspection before the first cold snap catches crown cracks and creosote build-up from a winter of wood burning.
The Census Bureau counts about 763,600 homes and apartments in the 732 territory. 56.1% were built before 1980 and 10.1% before 1940, lower than the New Jersey figure of 64.3% built before 1980. The median home here dates from the 1970s, and 61.5% of homes are single-family detached houses.
79.1% of occupied homes heat mainly with utility gas and 14.4% with electricity. Wood is the main heating fuel in 0.1% of homes, lower than the national rate of 1.5%.
Most homes here are more than 40 years old, so original flue liners, mortar joints and chimney crowns have seen decades of weather. An annual inspection catches wear before it becomes a repair.
Under the 2021 International Energy Conservation Code, 95% of residents live in climate zone 4A (mixed, humid), and the rest mostly in 5A (cool, humid).
The 732 territory (with overlay 848) is home to roughly 1,918,000 people across 115 ZIP codes in Middlesex County, Monmouth County, Ocean County, Somerset County and 1 more county.
