Make the call before anything else in Catoosa. Getting a technician dispatched to your address is the single most important action you can take. Everything else can be done while you are waiting for us to arrive in Catoosa, OK.
Do not use the fireplace while the chimney is leaking in Catoosa, OK. Introducing heat into a wet masonry assembly accelerates thermal stress damage to components that are already compromised.
