Our Chimney Repair Process

Step 1: Inspection and Diagnosis

We start by inspecting your chimney system thoroughly to find cracks, leaks, or creosote buildup. We then evaluate the masonry, flue, and other critical components to create a repair plan.

Step 2: Structural Repairs

Brickwork and Mortar Restoration: We repair damaged masonry and replace deteriorated bricks and mortar joints to get your masonry chimney back to its original state.

Chimney Crown Repairs: Cracks in your crown can let water leak in and cause costly damage. We seal and rebuild crowns to stop leaks.

Chimney Liner Replacement: Damaged liners on chimney flues are a safety hazard. We install high-quality chimney liners, to protect against toxic fumes, heat damage and carbon monoxide exposure.

Step 3: Water Leak Prevention

Flashing and Caps: Properly installed flashing and durable chimney caps prevent chimney leaks by keeping rain and debris from leaking out of the chimney.

Sealing and Waterproofing: We use advanced materials to stop leaks and protect your fireplace repair chimney’s exterior from the elements.

Step 4: Safety and Efficiency

Creosote Removal: Our chimney sweep sweeps get your own brick chimneys clean by removing hazardous buildup, reducing the risk of chimney fires.

Damper and Smoke Management: A working attic damper improves ventilation and keeps smoke out of your house.

Step 5: Final Inspection

Before we leave, we perform a full inspection to ensure that all repairs comply with fire codes and are safe and efficient.
