A careful look at the condition and safety of your chimney before you buy a house, light the first fire of the season or commit to a repair.

Stainless steel liners for damaged clay flues, unlined older chimneys and heating-system conversions, sized correctly for the appliance they serve.

Stains spreading on the ceiling near the fireplace, drips in the firebox or a damp chimney wall mean water has found a way in. We track it to the source and close it.

The joint between chimney and roof is where most chimney leaks start. We repair and replace flashing the right way, with metal, not a tube of sealant.

The crown is the lid on your chimney. When it cracks, every rain goes into the brick below. We seal minor cracks and pour new crowns when the old one is past saving.

A cap is the least expensive thing you can put on a chimney and prevents some of the most expensive problems. We fit, replace and repair caps for single and multi-flue chimneys.

Mortar is designed to wear out before the brick does. Repointing renews the joints and keeps a sound chimney from becoming a rebuild.

When the masonry is too far gone to repair, we take the chimney down to sound brick and build it back correctly, from the roofline up or from the ground.

Brick and mortar absorb water like a sponge. A breathable waterproofing treatment keeps rain out of the masonry while letting trapped moisture escape.

Creosote, soot, nests and debris leave your flue a little more dangerous every season. A proper sweep clears them out and gives us a look at the condition of the chimney.

Stains on the ceiling near the chimney or in the fireplace almost always trace to flashing, a cracked crown or porous brick.
See the fixThe concrete crown is the chimney's roof. Freeze–thaw cracks let water into the masonry below.
See the fixWithout a cap, rain, animals and debris go straight down the flue. A stainless cap is one of the cheapest fixes we do.
See the fixRepointing replaces failed joints before bricks loosen. Widespread spalling may mean a partial rebuild.
See the fixA damaged liner can leak flue gases into the house. Relining with stainless steel restores a safe, correctly sized flue.

FAQ
Chimney repair and masonry restoration, inspections, stainless steel liner installation and relining, leak and flashing repair, crown repair and replacement, cap installation, repointing, partial and full rebuilds, waterproofing and chimney cleaning. We work on both fireplace chimneys and furnace or boiler flues.
If the problem is limited to joints, crown, cap or flashing and the brick is sound, a repair is usually right. When bricks are spalling across large areas, the chimney leans, or earlier repairs keep failing, a rebuild from the roofline up is often the better long-term value. We explain the condition and show you photos.
Masonry absorbs water. Porous brick, a cracked crown or a missing cap can let water in slowly, and snowmelt or wind-driven rain finds the weak point. Condensation from a gas appliance venting into an oversized flue can also look like a leak.
Yes. A pre-purchase inspection documents the condition of the crown, cap, flashing, masonry and liner so you know what you are buying and can negotiate with facts.
Yes. We look at the chimney, explain what we find and provide a written price. There is no charge for the estimate.
