"We hired Josh to completely transform our fireplace area and couldn’t be happier with the results. From the initial inspection to the final install, everything was explained clearly and handled professionally. The stonework and stove setup came out absolutely beautiful and completely changed the feel of the room. Josh was clean, punctual, and took real pride in his work. The before and after difference is night and day. I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality chimney or stove work done right."

Gary was great at communicating with us about what we wanted and kept us up to date on how things were going since we couldn t be there for the construction. The price was reasonable too.

"I had them do a cleaning and inspection of my chimney and they found damages to the brickwork and the top of the chimney. They installed a new cap and their cost was so reasonable. All their work is guaranteed as well, which is reassuring. They were clean, efficient and courteous. I would highly recommend Handy Andy and in fact they are doing an estimate for my neighbor to whom I recommended them to."

"Excellent professional service. Shamrock technicians did an excellent job on cleaning wood stove liner, inspecting all the chimneys and cleaned up after the service. The phone service for setting up the appointment was excellent and they came to the house at the exact time and date that was scheduled., I will use Shamrock in the future for the annual cleaning of my wood stove liner. I recommend Shamrock for chimney cleaning and inspection. James M. Bloomsbury, NJ"

"We could NOT be happier with them!! We purchased a deal to have our kitchen backsplash done. They responded within 2 days and sent someone out to measure before they put us on the schedule to have the work done. We were a little over the square footage so they charged us a little extra, as we expected and it was a very reasonable price. Within 2 weeks of purchasing the deal they sent someone out to do the job (I think his name was Berto). He was VERY friendly, skilled, courteous, professional, and diligent! He even brought his own lunch and beverages! We had simple white subway tiles installed. Our kitchen is old and crooked and he worked like an artist to somehow make it all look straight and gorgeous. We are SO HAPPY with the results. We only ended up purchasing this deal because we contacted someone local and waited a month to have him fit us into his schedule and when I confirmed he didn't show up. I am so pleased we went with these guys instead. It is so charming now and we are really happy with the results!

"It went great. Jason came and reviewed and gave us a quote for two different options. We went with the cheaper option and then he came and did the work. He was quick, and the work was completed without a hitch, for exactly what he quoted us for a price. I would definitely hire him again or recommend him to anyone who needs chimney work!"

"They were immediately responsive and showed up quickly to scope out the job, which was for fireplace and chimney repairs as specified in my Home Advisor search. Unfortunately, this was not the type of work they do so we did not hire them. I want to give kudos to any contractor who responds immediately and shows up when expected!"

Start with a professional inspection. If damage is limited to a few bricks or the crown, a targeted repair helps keep costs and disruption to a minimum. Severe leaning, widespread mortar failure, or major fire damage usually signals it’s time for a complete teardown and rebuild. Your contractor will outline both price tags, but remember that rebuilding a failing stack is often cheaper than repeated patch jobs and the water leaks or fire hazards they allow.
Cracks provide water with an easy path into the masonry, weakening the bricks and mortar and increasing the risk of collapse or fire. Gaps can also let hot gases and sparks escape into attic spaces. Call a chimney pro as soon as you see cracking so they can seal small joints or recommend a larger rebuild before minor damage turns into a costly emergency.
Smoke rolling back into the room often indicates a blocked flue, a broken damper, or a drafting issue. Have a sweep inspect the damper, flue liner, and any obstructions right away. Most fixes involve clearing debris, repairing the liner, or adjusting the damper so the fireplace pulls air correctly. Don’t light another fire until a professional pinpoints the cause and confirms your system is venting safely.
Most policies cover chimney repairs caused by a sudden, covered event, such as lightning, a fallen tree, or a house fire. They won’t cover damage that stems from neglected maintenance or everyday wear. Review your policy or contact your agent before scheduling work to determine what documentation your insurer requires and what costs you will be responsible for.
Component life spans vary. Clay tile or cast-in-place liners last close to 50 years, while stainless-steel liners last 15 to 20 years. Mortar requires attention every 25 to 30 years, while crowns last 50 to 75 years. Use these numbers as a maintenance roadmap: schedule regular inspections, budget for future upgrades, and replace parts before age-related cracks develop into more significant problems.
