And no Bud16415, it didn't really change the look. Thank you all!

Thank you slownsteady. Do you re-spray it every few years? Thanks Nealtw, Bud16415, and joecaption! They built us a lovely chimney and I should trust their judgment but when you start reading about things on the Internet, it can get very confusing.

No issues. But now looking on the internet I see it's like most things, there's different opinions and I'm trying to figure out if I should have it done again next time or skip it. Most people don't have their chimneys sprayed, I would think.

Our chimney people have just sprayed Fabrishield 761 over our chimney. Is that a good thing or a bad one?

Good. Thanks!

We need to have a new water line put in from the meter in the parking strip to the house. We've recently had a new electrical panel put in and the electricians pounded two grounding rods into the ground outside our house. Because of this, will the house be just as well grounded if we get plastic...

If we were to have a plastic pipe put in, how would the house be grounded?

Thank you nealtw. Can this be done on a driveway that has a downslope?

So is there some kind of a meter that can detect a water leak? Is there a metal detector or something that can detect metal pipes?
