Chimney care in the 319 area
Winters around Cedar Rapids, Iowa City and Waterloo mean long, heavy heating seasons and deep freeze-thaw cycles. Wood stoves, inserts and fireplaces that run for months build creosote quickly, and ice and snow load test crowns, caps and flashing. Plan an inspection and sweep in late summer or early fall, before the busy season starts.
The Census Bureau counts about 350,300 homes and apartments in the 319 territory. 60% were built before 1980 and 21.1% before 1940, close to the Iowa figure of 63.2% built before 1980. The median home here dates from the 1970s, and 69.1% of homes are single-family detached houses.
