"The owner is very professional. He clearly explained the options and identified another potential danger area. We opted to remove the chimney as the cost to rebuild (above the roof line) would have been $8,800. The team was courteous and professional."

"I had a chimney in need of repair; Kayes repaired it for a very affordable price with very good workmanship. I'm planning on using them for a walkway repair in the near future. I've recommended them to a friend as well."

"We chose Nick from Shortfix to repair our dishwasher, which had a blocked drain. This happened on a Saturday and, not surprising, many firms are closed for the weekend. Nick was available, so we scheduled an appointment and he arrived at the appointed time. He went right to work and promptly completed the necessary work. Nick was very courteous snd professional. I will not hesitate to call him if we have a problem with another one of our appliances."

"The project went wonderfully. In June of 2024, Hegedus Hardscapes removed an old 1970’s porch, and installed a beautiful, new Unilock porch with adequate drainage, using adequate pitch and new pipes. The overall look is exceptional, like a European grotto, with a perimeter edged in sandstone. Hegedus Hardscapes is a family business, whose members all work hard, and to a high standard. If you are a picky customer and find it hard to locate an outdoor contractor with standards as high as yours, then, look no further; Hegedus Hardscapes is the company for you!"

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.
