Generally, standard homeowners insurance in New York covers damage caused by sudden, accidental events, like a lightning strike or fire. Routine wear and tear or neglect typically aren't covered.

It states that the chimney should extend at least three feet above the highest point of the roof where it passes through, and at least two feet higher than any part of the building within ten feet. This helps ensure proper draft and prevents downdrafts.
