On Pelham Manor's pre-war Tudor and colonial homes, original concrete chimney crowns are 90-130 years old — an age at which hairline cracking is virtually universal, even when not visible from the ground. In the Sound Shore coastal humidity environment, a cracked crown is not merely a potential future problem: it allows moisture to work actively into the masonry below with every rain event, in a location where masonry is already more consistently moist than on a drier inland chimney. The compounding of mortar deterioration this produces is faster here than in more sheltered locations.
